The practice I am referring to is when an employee gives a two week notice at their old company and the old employer finds out who the new employer is and tries to sabotage the employee's chances at the new job before they even started. You usually see this when someone is leaving to a competitor or the employee has a specialized skill. I've seen this happen to a couple people I've known, and I've called it reverse poaching, but there's got to be an actual, better term for it.
I live in a bad part of town, so there’s hardly any places available (let alone jobs) and the only jobs currently available are minimum wage ($7.25-9.00) and/or are very dangerous working environments (constantly on the news for being robbed, a death scene, a shootout etc) and I now avoid these jobs because they literally aren’t worth it. I constantly experience lack of decent job opportunities based on where I live. And before people say “a job is a job”, I have worked at a restaurant on/off for 4 years (amongst other jobs) and my highest wage was $8.10/hr there, even though I was a trainer!! Gas cost about $300-400 every two weeks and I was eventually paying to go to work at some points and had to constantly eat food from work just to make ends meet. Once I file taxes, I’m saving my money until I get a…
I didn't even know this sub existed until last month but had I known when I was still working at this place, I could go on for hours about the endless bullshit that went on there. For the sake of privacy, lets call this place Hell-mart and my manager SM or sadisitic manager. Now I have had life long spinal issues and when seeking employment, I make this very known. Usually I'm accomoded and we have no issues. At hell-mart, I worked in the back of the store keeping stock and getting shit where it needs to go so while standing most of the day, I'm not putting strain on my back and the job gets done. Eventually our old manager retires or quits, I honestly never found out, and SM takes over as the new manager. I didn't care at first, afterall I just minded my own business and…
My love last year transferred stores for work, moving cross state to do so, he was promised a set schedule and availability. However the past few weeks he's been denied it, so this valentines we won't be together because of it, it's been to the point we barely get 1 day to eachother a week. We talked to his coworkers turns out the main boss is a misandrist, she needed a male worker to do bathroom checks and meet requirements to run the store because she forced/fired the rest, so what we gather is that he transferred store to only be a scapegoat for her and with this preasure is basically being forced to quit. Is there anything we could do about this? Out of a team of 20ish he's literally the guy there besides one guy on nightshift(whom only passes by because he works nights and no one wants…
So in Hungary teachers are planning a big strike cause of unpaid overtime , and low pay. Here there is a thing callled “minimum service” meaning strikers cant just stop working completely in some areas like education. There was an ongoing legal struggle to determine the minimum service as teachers only want to offer sitter service but government wants them to keep teaching. Now they used their extra right gained by covid emergency and decided on the minimum service through an edict, going around the actual laws. Teachers have to look after kids in their own classroom, hold all exam subjects (like maths) and hold 50% of non exam subjects (like art) Baiscally striking has been banned in hungary for teachers. Please spread the word that Hungary is a dictatorship that uses covid emergenc to bring back slavery. (They also banned some ppl like nurses from leaving jobs during the…
Y’all ever have arguments in your head with past bosses who have traumatized you? I quit a job March 2020 with an overweight old Italian boss who loved to scream at me and still now am defending myself in my head to him real dumb.
