I work at a popular college bar. I recently got “promoted” to night manager. I was supposed to close 1 night a week (2am) and then work 3 to 11 the rest of the week. A toxic staff member was fired and I was scheduled his closing day. No big deal but they never hired a replacement and the staff is worn thin. The employee who was closing 4 nights a week quit with no notice and that left a big hole in the schedule. They tried to get me to cover on my days off but I declined. Now they are looking for a new staff member and have scheduled me to close 5 days a week as to train them. I'm worried they'll try to get me to work that schedule permanently and drag their feet hiring someone. If that happens I will be on the opposite schedule…

So- I've been job-searching for a little bit now after I left my last position kinda abruptly. Found a place that I thought would be good to work at and that overlapped with my own interests personally. I emailed them and within a few hours they called me in for an interview. The wage they described matched up with what I was looking for. They emailed me back the next day for a second interview with one of the people that would've been sort of managing the department I wanted to get into. From my perspective, they both went great. When I have interviews like that, I've historically been offered the position. But a week went by- I didn't hear anything from them. So I called them up and asked if they needed anything else from me and if they had any updates on the position. “No, sorry we're still…

No funny shit customers absolutely fucking suck like foreal they never happy they always bitch about the smallest things customer service is like the worst fucking job of all can anybody relate to this. Do your best and the customer still fucking bitches about the smallest fucking shit.

For context, I have multiple health conditions that make work a challenge for me. I am in bad pain some days, can’t always lift heavy things or walk very much, etc. I am a college student and I take food service jobs because it’s the only thing I’m really qualified for, and I started taking them before my medical issues were so bad. I also have very severe adhd. I keep running into a problem where I start a new job, I show up and everything is great. But then something will happen, either a physical or mental health problem and I’ll have to call out. And my employer will react negatively, which makes me scared to call out again. So the next time I feel sick I force myself to go to work, but then I end up having to leave early due to illness. So then the next…

I work in the trades as a labourer and am non union (but looking to join one now) and last week I did a total of 70 hrs. My employer only payed me through payroll deposit for 44 hrs and is telling me I have no choice but to receive the rest of my pay via grocery and gas gift cards… I know this must be illegal and I’m hoping someone can tell me who I can report him to. I’m not comfortable with this at all and no longer want to work here but I can’t quit or get fired because I wont receive ei if I do and wont be able to survive as I have no savings. Also my apologies if this is the wrong place to post something like this. I LIVE IN CANADA 🇨🇦
