I was a controller for a small company that was acquired by a fortune 500 company. The division we were put into does not have local accounting people. Their accounting is done at headquarters, but we were/are self supporting and had to do our own. Because of this they did not have an accounting title for me. So, they made me a customer care manager. I really did not care as long as I was paid. Big mistake… I did not get a raise in April 2020, but I just went with it thinking it was due to COVID. The next year (2021) I again did not get a raise and realized it had nothing to do with COVID. It was because I made too much money for the position I was put in. I complained and let them know that if there was a third year without a raise,…

That's all I got, and I hope you guys do the same. Except on days off, of course.

Reading through some of the posts on this sub I remembered an experience I had a few years ago (I am now employed elsewhere this is just an FYI for others) ​ I used to work for a DDonut shop around where I live. At the end of every week my manager used to bring out a binder to all employees with everyone's “missing punches” and ask us to sign the times he put in. I noticed there were always several instances to sign so I started taking pictures of all of my punch ins and outs. I would start pulling up the images and showing “no I actually punched out but it the time you put down isn't right” and he'd correct it. After only a few times of me correcting him and proving I am taking pictures of my punches, suddenly I didn't have to sign the book…

Through all of the complaining and everything that goes on I'm trying to make a difference ag my shop. Monday morning me and a group of workers are officially starting the push to unionize. As of right now it seems management has no idea so hopefully we blindside them and get this going quick and dirty. Wish me luck yall!

I had been a stay at home mom since I had my twins. Having 3 kids under 3 made working unfeasible. While I was home with them, I had been finishing up my degree, with hopes of getting a teaching job eventually. Fast forward, I had just finished my degree, and the twins were in Kindergarten. I had a sizable gap in my resume, and was looking to build up some experience. One of my best friends let me know that her daycare was hiring. I had an interview and was hired on the spot for $10/hr. I was “part time” but worked 7am – 2pm Monday-Friday. I had let them know when I was hired, I absolutely had to leave by 2pm so I could get my kids off the school bus at 2:30. Most everyone else worked a 9hr day, and got an hour lunch. I was lucky…

I ware a necklace that is obviously an Urn. You can see the ashes through glass. My GM looked at it, then me, and said “Ha, is that your rape whistle” then walked off. It took me a bit to realize what was actually said and potentially implied. I'm fucking pissed off

I’m 19 and work as a bartender. I just quit today with no notice because I feel I’ve been exploited. I’ve worked 2 12 hour shifts then 2 9 hour shifts back to back. I’m completely drained, I have no life outside work and I’m burnt out to my core. I get paid 9.20£ an hour in the U.K. which is a decent salary for my age, regardless it in no way shape or form compensates for the amount of stress and shit I have to put up with. All while the company records record profits. I have to deal with customers yelling at me, a badly equipped bar, all whilst being in one the busiest bar in one of the biggest cities in the U.K.. I was going to vomit today and asked if I could go home just to be met with a 😐 face from the managers,…
