Category: Antiwork

Thanks for posting. Since we love to work at Turd Nugget Inc, this would be like someone telling us we must do less of what we love! When it comes to work, some people see it as something they want less of, some people see it as something they would like to have more of, but perhaps can't allow themselves to do more of. We want to build a place that is for people who feel like Monday is really Friday, and that want to be in a place that has that aspiration. All the best, Turd Nuggetson

Okay so… first job, first resignation – getting the F out after 6.5 years. No clue why I'm on this sub when I should be rehearsing my little speech. EDIT: Took a breathe and dived right in. I thought my supervisor would give more of a fu*k than he did. He is the one reason I am leaving. I loved this place, the people I work with and the work itself. My prior supervisor – great lady, very knowledgeable in the field, was a pleasure to work with and for. I would've went above and beyond for her. Unfortunately, she lost her fight versus cancer. She was replaced with this current fool of a supervisor. He gives no clear direction, no feedback, he isn't involved in anything. Not sure why he is a supervisor to begin with. He essentially just said 'ok', 'ok', and 'ok'. However, the heat will be…

Just wanted to post a mini rant here. I am feeling the anti work vibes extra today… while I want to feel valued/needed in my work, and capable of supporting myself, I am tired of the grind. I have it great at my job. Honestly couldn’t get better. But I continue to struggle mentally. I am not free. I have to disassociate to get through the weeks… maybe because none of this is “me”. Or maybe because I am super avoidant of stress. I’m so tired of being anxious over nothing… I’ve explored other interests through classes and internships, but it turns out those interests will put me on the financial struggle bus. I need to muster up motivation to find a new path. Or a new option. This is why most Americans are on anti-depressants I swear. We are stuck trying to keep our heads above water. The outlook…

Going through hiring for the Hilton. Phone reference.they would probably call today or tomorrow. One of my longterm references is no longer available so I'm short one reference. It would need to be someone interested U.S. You would just have to say that I've done handyman work directly for you in your home. Light plumbing, light electrical, tile, whatever. References are dumb nowadays. People move too much, too many jobs offer no future,but you're required to stay in touch with co workers or managers you haven't seen or worked for in 10 years. In large companies it's doubtful they even remember the hourly employees. Anyway, this is a great opportunity for me and I'm stressing that I won't get it due to one reference.

Hey Reddit, I'm in a bit of a dilemma and could really use some advice and insights from you all. Six weeks ago, I started a new job at Company X, and things have been going relatively well. However, I recently received an offer from Company Y that aligns perfectly with my career plan and comes with a salary that's double what I'm currently making. While it's an amazing opportunity, I can't shake off the guilt and conflict I feel about resigning from my current position. I don't want to leave my new team in a tough spot, especially so soon after joining. On the other hand, this offer from Company Y represents a significant step forward for my career, both financially and in terms of professional growth. Has anyone been in a similar situation before? How did you handle it? I'd love to hear your stories and advice on…

It used to be that I checked in with my supervisor when I came to work, and they would give me directions throughout the day, and I'd leave when I got the go-ahead from him. Now he's no longer our highest ranking supervisor, the new guys want us to use the Teams app to track our hours. Thats all fine if it weren't for the fact that I'm still required to enter my times as written on the clock in app, which doesn't even work half the time so my hours and breaks are all over the place and have to be edited eventually. The managment that is supposedly tracking our hours and keeping up with when we're working isn't responsible for putting those times in for payroll? It made sense for me to do it when I was the one tracking it, but now that I'm not, why is…
