Category: Antiwork

I’ve been an employee for this company for appx 1.5 years. I arrive to work on time with the exception of the past 2 months. I first received a written warning for being late. By the 3rd tardy my supervisor explained that if I’m more than 15 min late in the next 3 weeks they will withhold a days worth of pay from my paycheck. Is this legal ? In Texas btw.

The VP of sales is aware of some positions I'm interested in with other departments. He scheduled a time to talk tomorrow and I need to be prepared rather than saying “I've been doing the same shitty job for three years and there has been no opportunity for advancement within this department, I'm stressed and burnt out, I just need CHANGE.” I sell final expensive insurance. I talk to people on social security all day about death. It's literally depressing and the constant monthly sales goals are always changing and making it more difficult to get a good paycheck. I'd rather take a pay cut to 60-70k salary and maybe use my actual brain more. Any advice to put it nicely?

I know it really bad right now, particularly in the US. Are there any companies you think are a cut above the rest to work for? (Please include location like the state or country if it’s somewhere other than US) I thought this would be fun and also help those who come here in a miserable job escape faster. I wish I could offer one of my own but I’ve only ever had one job and tbh if I can I’ll use this list to escape. My boss can shove his $16 an hour + the occasional pizza party up where the sun don’t shine.

As the title suggests, the mortgage company I am working for has forced mandatory pay cuts of 10% throughout the company until the 1st quarter of 2023. They have said this is to prevent anymore layoffs within the company. The CEO says this is due to the current mortgage industry and housing markets. They are also claiming that all employees including hourly, salary, and managerial staff will be taking the pay cut. I’m currently making $16.50/hr and have been struggling even more to pay my rent and other bills on time and in full. I guess my question and the reason I am making this post is because I’m wondering if this is common practice? Has anyone else heard of this happening at their company or another?

I've been looking but it seems all posts for the antiwork strike in April have been removed. Does anyone know if this movement has been canceled?
