I've been promoted to store manager at a large retail store and my store has fallen a little bit because of poor upper management sending wrong stock deliveries to us and delivering over 50 cartons (about 1000 + units of clothing) per day with one other staff on the whole day to unpack and put out onto the shop floor and serve customers. It's impossible. ​ I was told if I wanted to keep my position I would have to do an extra 2 hours in the morning before I started my shift and 2 hours after, to get jobs done, equalling out at around 20 hours of extra un-paid labour per week ontop of a 38 hour working week. They refuse to hire more staff, and won't give anymore hours for my current staff. I've been in the position for about 3 months and have already doubled the store's…

Ive been working there for 3 years i’ve always been on call i was always there to fill the gap when they were understaffed and recently i got my first paycheck from youtube and it turned out to be a lot more than what i expected when it comes to money. Being tired of regular job and my boss knowing i have another source of income i asked my boss if i could take a few months off to focus on other projects of mine. He answered “you only work 3 days a week i don’t understand why you’d need a vacation” he said he can only give me one month of unpaid vacation. I was aware of the unpaid thing since it’s a restaurant and most restaurant jobs are awful but anyways, i agreed to give him some time to find someone to replace me during my vacation. It…

I’m 21 years old and doing an apprenticeship that I’ve come to realize has put me in a shit situation. The management is full of people who don’t understand how difficult this work is. I only make enough money to break even on my monthly expenses, which means I can’t save anything. My commute is 2 hours each way and costs $600-800 a month because I use public transportation. And I can’t get a car or move closer to work because I don’t make enough money for either of those options. I’m disabled and this job is making things worse, so I keep having to miss more and more time, which of course means management is pissed and I get less money. But when I look for other work, it seems like nothing is any better. Truthfully, it’s making me want to die so I don’t have to deal with…

I was forced to resigned due to mental health issues cause by my job and was diagnosed and treated for anxiety, depression and insomnia. Need someone to prepare a letter. I will include more context in direct message or email. Thanks.

So the HR manager of this big company reaches out to me and shes like youre great for this job we would love to hire you. They then make me go through 4 rounds of interviews and then at the end give me 2 days to finish a “prework” This pre-work brief just says this: build a platform strategy. Your strategy should include: – Chosen social platforms, with ranking of focus/priority. Outline the approach, thinking and research that led you to your chosen platforms – Role of each platform (including objectives) – Target audience by platform – Recommended objectives by platform – Recommended content formats, with rationale – Content frequency So I put together a 7 page single spaced document with a super detailed platform strategy including everything they ask for. They ask me for a call and in the call they tell me “we arent moving forward with you…

Look my family was poor. We had just a tiny house until I was like 6 or 7. Then my parents inherited some land from my grandparents that died and we upgraded to a slightly bigger House. Money was still tight – I got lucky to get a scholarship though Football but still had to work a part time job throughout summer to get through College. I also had to help in the family business since age 17. With their inheritance my parents build a few houses and appartments and started renting them. I still couldnt afford my own house until I was 25 – money was allways tight. Then came the dot com crash and the recession of 2008 that almost ruined us. But because we were smart and hard working we prevailed. We just raised prices from 600/month to 1000/month and still barely made it. I never inherited…
