So I posted in another subreddit what to do about a coworker of mine that has obvious boundary issues with one of our clients. I work with vulnerable people so I find this to be absolutely unacceptable. He only treats this one person “special” compared to others that we work with and I find this to be very uncomfortable. Well the other subreddit told me to go to a higher up manager with the issue.. I was told that they have never personally seen it. Made excuses that he really wants to just help and must really love the work he does…wtf. And then was literally told to bring “receipts”. Nope no boundaries training or anything. I'm done with companies. I'm done working. How do I make a living with no income or job? Cause I'm about to quit.

It’s crazy to think that these companies make billions are we work so little. I am the lowest paid person at my store. My supervisor makes $25 a hour. He’s on salary so guaranteed 40 a week. Warehouse manager makes $15.I make $13.I work in the warehouse and a delivery driver. I was promised a .75 cent raise but never got it after probation. Every part I deliver my warehouse manager gets a commission % and my supervisor does to. Just work for everyone else to make money. I hate I can’t lie.I am 23 and man I need to find a job with a career if I am going to be a slave for everyone’s gain. I love my job but I hate that I really get nothing out of it. 🤦

So im from a latam country and i work as a delivery man for a rotiserie. What happend is that the main branch is closed cuz of repairs so most of the employees were relocated to another branch which is newest. The thing is that the boss didn't want to lose any money so he takes all the orders from our costumers from the main branch which is closed and then call to the new branch so they make the orders. Me and the others delivery mans got a lot more work cuz we have to travel about 10/15 more blocks than normal (we use bikes) for every order. You got to ad the fact that the guys that make the orders are not used to manage the amount of work that the main branch represent so all the orders are eather wrong or late plus the fact that the…

Good morning everyone. So I currently work for a small company that develops batteries and capacitors. I started as a machine operator for the company and worked my way up to be a assembly cell technician. As a assembly cell technician, I work with toxic chemicals and materials such as lithium. I received little training on disposing lithium and was given no information about the dangers of lithium besides “its dangerous, you can die from it”. I even had an incident where it burned my sinuses around october of 2021. I just recently was exposed to a chemical and wasnt equipped with the correct eye protection ( was wearing saftery glasses, company doesnt have goggles for us) and now my eyes have been feeling dry and abrasive for about 4 days now( I tried to seek legal help but no one is willing to listen to me unless I have…

I think what america needs is a General Union. Something litterally anyone can join. by joining youd sign a contractual agreement stating the following I will not perform scab work I will openly post my wage I will cooperate with strikes and youll abide by union rules for 3 months after deciding to leave the union (to gaurentee collective bargaining potential) in return they aid in collective bargaining rights for any buisness where they can effectively bargain (atleast 40% unionized) legal fee aid for employment related lawsuits and council of course this is just a broad idea and any actualization of this would need more thorough thought and probably a lawyer to look through it

Which means my usual ~25 hours per week will probably be slashed in half. I work two different jobs at the moment. This minimum wage one and my side job. I have a bachelor's degree in chemistry and started working here as a stock gap whilst I look for a full time job. Still no progress, six months later. My manager knows that I have bills to pay yet doesn't give a fuck. We work very closely and he seems like a nice guy on the surface – by far, the most down-to-earth manager I've had. Yet there is no transparency in this organisation. We only found about the new starter today. How can people be so heartless? When you work your socks off everyday, have no sick days, always come in early, – this is the thanks we get? Fuck this company and its libertarian half-wittedness. No one cares…
