Recently at a new corporate job I was given $10 on a reloadable giftcard to go to the 3rd party vending machines. They sell general gas station food and sandwiches. Creating an account for this 3rd party vendor was messed up and I had to merge two accounts I created into one. Long story short is that the initial $10 i was given never goes away in my account for whatever reason. Unlimited lunches essentially since it reloads back every day. My question is ethically what should I do and realistically can this come back to bite me even though it’s through the 3rd party? Am I stealing? Should I speak up? Thanks for any advice/help!

I've never been paid a lot, despite being intelligent and having experience in many areas. Big money is apparently for silver spoons, shills, yes men, and those who “respect the grind.” Yet, I am still young, and have a family, a house, and all of the material comforts that I have always dreamed about. And that is because I got it all when I wanted it. Every little bit extra on tax returns. Every bonus. Every stimulus check. All spent before someone could suggest saving it. Because what inevitably happens when you are broke is that the money you saved ends up disappearing anyways. Why save for some far off day that you may not be alive for anyways? I want to play guitar now. I want to play video games now. I want to buy my young son every fucking thing he wants now. None of that works when…

No I am not fucking lazy I don’t want to fucking sleep all day and night as a matter of fact the real lazy people are the ones who support working,they are unoriginal and copying the slavery system except by paying them very little might as well be nothing and even if it was a lot you are still just selling yourself out,your soul and your freedom. Only real ones don’t support working. You see work is pretty much paid slavery that is exactly what it is and it is not right. Work is a offense and a spit in the face of freedom. Everyone should not work and find real meaning in their life not some fake meaning in life that is forced by slavers/employers. We must win the Second Revolutionary War so that we can live free from the influence of slavery/work and live a peaceful, free, equal,…

I am not brave enough to produce the email, but thousands of US federal workers got an email about the program in the title, which allows employees to donate unused leave to other employees who have been affected by the wildfires in Colorado. Because the massive multi-trillion dollar US federal govt can't afford to give extra paid vacation to people who are still sifting through the literal…->literal

For ~7 months, until last Thursday (technically Monday), I worked a 12hr shift factory job. I would love to name it but they only have one plant in my state and I’d rather not doxx myself. Like with every job until now, I became the well known “yes man” there, and the one to push all extra tasks onto. There was never a complaint about me and I never complained about anyone else despite being borderline harassed by all around terrible people. I had coworkers who snuck off the bathroom to do drugs. One ended up breaking her arm on shift and refusing to go to the hospital just so she didn’t have to do a drug test (it was honestly pretty impressive). A coworker who watched porn while working machines. A coworker who openly bragged about baby trapping a minor. A coworker who cussed out another coworker over not…

Im switching jobs and I have no clue about negotiating. The range is $23.50-28.50 (from the company’s HR rep), I saw on Glassdoor the job pays abt $24. So I expect an offer of $24. Idk anything about negotiating tho and I’d like $25 at least. I was thinking of saying “I was hoping for $27” if it’s under $27, so I at least get $25. Any advice? It’s a lucrative field that involves a lot of hours. It’s also entry level so they can train others, so it’s not like they’re dying to have me. I’ve under priced myself twice in this process and don’t want to do it again

I've done on average 55-hour-weeks in a demanging desktop job since December. I worked all day and all night on wednesday, did not sleep a minute yet did full eight hours the day after. I've sacrificed my social life, my hobbies, my sex life with my bf, and my physical fitness to do good in this job. I've not even reported all my hours to payroll, because I felt some tasks took me too much time to complete and it was my fault for not being fast enough, but I wanted to do them well and carefully anyway. And today I got told I've worked too slow and my managers suspect I'm being lazy and stealing company time. Is this worth suffering for 1 – 1,5 more years to get the CV points? It's a respected company and an alright position, which will be regarded well once i'll apply for…

Preparing mine, and I’m inbetween what to send. Professional, laying it all out there or subject : sorry – body : sorry for your loss, it’s me I quit.
