I'm more late everyday but still Actually they aren't really my boss, my really boss has to write me up.. how do I make them write my fake boss up for being late everyday too?

How does that work again? You have to call corporate or the store for PTO and sick time/vacation days? And then what about 401k does that just follow you around or how does it work? Maybe I should call my union first?

I fell at work last week attempting to help a client. I sprained both my ankles. My husband drove me to urgent care where they gave me crutches, an X-ray, and 5 days off work through L&I. Today I had my follow up appointment. My right ankle has been healing well but my left ankle is the same. Pain all day and night, can’t walk, trouble sleeping. Nauseating pain when the slightest pressure is put on. There is also pain going through my left leg. Turns out I may have hairline fractures that weren’t caught at urgent care and I have to come back in a week for more X-rays and possibly start PT. This all sucks but is understandable. But during the appointment it seemed like the doctor never really believed me and called my boss and long story short I’m going back to work Wednesday. But here’s the…

Anyone here have luck getting their company to raise their salary. I’m in tech and my salary should be about 60k higher.

Getting compensated for work, once per month, is exploitation. Wanna talk about wage theft – working as a contractor is something I’ll never do again. I have poured hours upon years into responding to my clients. Get a reimbursement that’s a fraction of what I would have made outside of working as a contractor on my own. I’ve been doing it for years and convinced myself that if I could just get to xx number of clients, it would pay off. I got there. It did not pay off. I quit.

I’ve been on LTD for a while now with a mental disability. Tomorrow is the first day of my Graduated Return To Work (GRTW). My company claims they want to do anything they can to support me and say they can’t wait to have me back. I guess that’s why they are refusing to accommodate any of the recommendations from the doctors – even the one they hired. One of the sticking points is working from home. All my co-workers are working from home but they want me back in the office at least part time. I asked them where I should be reporting to work tomorrow for my first day in 18+ months and they said that they want me in the office on Wednesday. So……. where do you want me tomorrow you morons?? They were adamant that tomorrow was my first day but give me no information. What…

My rent was raise $299 without notice. Tennessee requires 30 days notice. I've now been emailed a 15 day eviction notice for not paying the late fees on the increased amount, as I payed what I have been paying on a month to month ongoing lease. What do I do now?

So, here's the background, had a job that was okay to be honest, but had unsociable hours that was beginning to affect my relationships and personal life. Got a new job which I started yesterday which is Monday – Friday and nice sociable hours and was said to provide training for those without experience (me in this case) as well as potential to learn new practical skills, and even talk of paying to send you back into learning if there was a particular area of the business you wanted to focus on. To my surprise I was offered the job at the interview, which in hindsight, might have been a bit of a red flag, but the thought of no more driving around all night and seeing those close to me again was too good to turn down, so I accepted. Arrived yesterday, and in my experience on a first…
