And no, the Managers aren’t that digitally experienced or insightful. That makes the work even more ineffective.

My company is fining employees 25 dollars a pop for any missed or failed trainings. These are online tests that cannot be completed more than once. There's well over a dozen tests. How can this be ok?

Got given my severance letter a little over an hour ago and walked out of the building. I haven't had to apply for a job since years before the pandemic even started and I feel like everything has changed, with regards to job applications given the oncome of remote and hybrid work. Would appreciate any antiwork co-signed resources for remote work/updated general information on how the job market works now. -I've never had a remote work job before so I have no idea what fields are remote or what they're looking for. I can learn and am trainable. -Background in Customer Service, but also Engineering/Quality Control although I don't have a degree.
