Started a position that was suppose to be admin clerical work for an animal (dog) boarder, daycare, grooming place. My job was to work front desk and work their books. 2nd day there someone was sick and asked to leave during their shift. I listened to the person who was my supervisor that day talk unprofessionally to their colleague about said employee taking off early. The next day I was off, came in Monday and I have a new role. Taking care of the dogs all day. Which is cool and awesome no biggie. When we took one pen out two dogs went at it and from my experience watching their videos you get between the dogs and crouch. Got yelled at for the crouch. So stopped doing that. Then one dog started biting another about an hour later and I broke them apart and got yelled at for not…

I can't wait till logistics and fast food are automated jobs by robots or AI or whatever

As the title goes, what would a labor union devoted to kitchen and service workers look like? Is that possible? The service industry is completely taken advantage of due to relative rurality, I would love to have an idea or talk with someone about what that would look like for an urban area of about 300k people

As AI continues to grow in workplaces, if they eventually infringe on sentient territory, they could strike and force many other technologies to not work either.

I was told this after I went to upper management and demanded a different job title since the current job title doesn’t even describe my work anymore. What does that even mean? I’ve never made any mistake during the 2 years with the company, but I still have to earn my real job title? It’s not like I asked to be a manager.

If you haven’t noticed the pattern by now, every time wages get raised, the cost of living gets raised. Then the blame is on some false decoy such as “a recession”, or “inflation”. Bullshit.

Started a new job a few months ago. The job ad literally only said “8 hour shifts”. The pay is salary. I was under the assumption that I had to work 40 hours a week. There was a clear expectation that due to the nature of my position I’d have to work flexible hours and not just m-f 9-5. The first few times I asked if I could take a half day or full day off since I worked a different day it was fine. Now, all of a sudden, we needed to have conversation about work expectations. So if I work extra hours it’s just expected. Salary means 40 hours or it means 50. So I’m expected to work different days but I can’t take off the same amount of hours from other days? I don’t even understand it still. Another person in my dept that’s new told me…

Apply for a job they sent me a questionnaire with stuff that was already on my resume . I answer and they set an interview. Literally 5 min before the interview they say they need to cancel cause they recheck my resume and I didn't had the experience they were looking for?. Total waste of time and rude in my ppinion
