levels of greed where I work. CEO told us we're expected to provide exponential growth yearly…like is Scrooge McDuck on the board?

I was talking to a coworker (C) when the only woman (M) on our shift comes up and says she is going to the bathroom. C complained about how much she goes to the bathroom which I brushed off because he complains about everything. Then he told me our manager asked him to monitor M's bathroom breaks and if she is going too frequently to not let her go. C said that since he wasn't paid a supervisors salary that he wasn't going to do it. M doesn't go more frequently than anyone else on shift but she always let's someone know when she does go which no one else does. I told her what happened as soon as she got back and she is reviewing her options.

Even though I’m at my wits end with work and even though I try so hard not to care, I feel so guilty for not finishing my tasks today. I didn’t finish due to the lack of time and due to the fact that we are short handed and training a new person. I feel like I should have stayed an hour later because I took a half day on Monday. I hate work guilt!

I'm currently looking for a new job as my current one isn't providing enough hours. I had a job interview this week and after mentioning I was looking for a four day work week they immediately mentioned that a weekend shift is required, basically telling me it wasn't an option. I will also have to wear a wig at all times because my current hair color isn't allowed (pink) and hair color significantly impacts my mental health so I can't change it. Finally they said that there is no leave allowed at all in December, and while I don't go on holiday then typically, it just rubs me the wrong way like they have no care for their employees. I have no qualifications so I can't really make demands as there are so many other people they could hire instead of me

So applied for this cleaning job awhile ago for this company X and then I get call from recruitment agency that the company is using to hire people. I answer her few questions, she doesn't know much about the company… She then sends me a text sending me to the directions of the place and telling me to look for this two people or call them if I cannot find them. I decided not to go to the interview as I thought the whole thing sounded suss. I then get angry call from her asking why I wasn't at the interview…

Basically, my current job isn’t making ends meet so I need another. Bullshit that happened this week: I mass applied to starbucks and one called me asking to interview during two times I happen to be working my current job. He says “uhhh… I’ll call you back…” and then within five minutes I get an auto email saying “we have decided not to move forward.” I get an invitation at night to interview at 7 am the next day, about 30 minutes away for a company I am interested in. I showed up to it and the manager raves about how impressed she is that I actually showed up short notice. I think it’s in the bag. She raves about the company and says shit like “you’ll have a badge.” She says over and over again she will call me on Monday morning. It is Tuesday night. Crickets. Today I…

I'm so sick and tired of busting my ass for these white, middle aged, cis-gender, loser, rich men who think they're above everybody. They think they can pay black women less money then their counterparts just because they think they're more agreeable. ​ I don't wanna go off on a rant, I just needed to get this off my chest. Story time if anyone gives a crap. ​ Ok since you guys asked for an update: This mayo monkey at my small office job was giving my black female friend a hard time. Calling her things like, stupid, loud, beligerant, lower average iq than white people. (Yeah, I know, his words not mine.) he brought up that fake 13% violent crime stat. And at the very end, I was walking to the managers office to report him and believe it or not they were already talking about it. I live…
