The ethics of the 4 day work week. It’s not just about the hours – “We should work to live, not live to work,” declared Britain’s shadow chancellor, who would reduce the standard working week to 32 hours, without loss of pay, within 10 years of winning office.

Capitalism crashing all around us, but all anyone is talking about is fucking m&ms.

People are suffering everywhere and it's only getting worse. But, yeah, let's all keep giving free advertising to a large corporation that has been accused of child slavery!

How do I politely tell my boss how horrible she is in my two week notice?

I’ve had enough and I’m putting in my two weeks soon. This woman has gas lit me harder than any man, she has screamed at me, she has embarrassed me in front of customers, she has told me to tell customers that I “have no idea what I’m fucking doing”, and many other, very specific things that I am not going to list. I’m sick of it, I’m sick of her, I’m sick of this job and being treated this way for a wage that I can BARELY get by on… how do I tell her to jump in a hole and go die without actually saying it?

Repaying Employer Healthcare Costs at Termination?

My partner canceled the healthcare he has through work today and I’m trying to find out if what they’re doing is legal. They distributed a form to employees to sign saying that if the employee quits or is fired, they have to repay the owner of the company for what he paid into that employee’s healthcare for the year. Is this legal? Instead of signing, he just canceled his plan. It’s $120 a week and having to pay back half of that (out of his last check, plus a bill if it’s more than that) would be tough if we were already in a situation where he’d lost his job.

Advice on withheld wages

I was supposed to recieve a bonus for the month of november and it was supposedly paid out on 12/17. When I go to look at my paycheck history, I see the bonus but I literally never recieved it. I checked my bank accounts multiple times and even looked for a paper check. I emailed my manager about this and she forwarded an email back to me with the pay history and another manager saying I recieved it and said “FYI..” . I emailed back and let her know I was aware of what the history said but I never got anything. I offered to send bank statements for proof. Any advice for what to do moving forward if this continues? I think they think I'm lying.

Just found out I’m being underpaid compared to coworkers.

I'm in the middle of transitioning out anyways but government beautocracy and be slow. Anyone have any advice on how to find peace with this in the meantime? I don't wanna go thru the hassle of trying to get a raise as, again, I'll be leaving soon enough. In the meantime I am so upset when I see my boss it is running my day. I don't my my boss stealing more of my time and energy. Stoicism is hard sometimes.
