Just got a letter from our city that they “accidentally” have been charging an extra 0.5% in taxes for the last 15 years! And they have no intention of refunding any of the money because of an Ohio law stating no there is a one year statute of limitations on “Unauthorized taxes”. (You mean theft?!?) I’m so livid, especially because our streets are nothing but potholes and downtown is trash, and we only have a volunteer fire department, but they are trying to justify what the money was spent on. I cannot wait to say my peace at the council meeting they are having about this issue in 2 weeks!

Several news stories and videos about China’s recent population decline and how this will negatively impact the global economy. Part of it is the younger generation not wanting to have kids because of the crazy unethical working environments for those kids/young adults. Go figure. Yet people only care how this will raise the price of everything made in China

I've done the 48-72 hours of week bs schedules before. I didn't like it. Why the fuck do you think I chose a 40 hour a week job?? Then you're gonna fucking spit in my face and tell me I need to come in tomorrow on my day off the day before.. I'm fucking sick of this shit. Flsa is outdated and comically one sided. Fair labor my fucking ass. This shit is toxic and needs to stop. I'm riding the edge of insanity dealing with pig fucking bosses who want to ruin everyone's lives for a few extra bucks in their pocket. I'm done and ready to revolt. They just take and take and take and give nothing in return. Yeah it's cool you're giving me overtime pay but when the fuck am I gonna be able to spend it you fucking clowns! I wish every employer who does…

I've been thinking about starting part time work, and while I'm working I might as well gain life experience from it so I've been thinking what kind of work should I choose that challenges me to go out of my comfort zone and doesn't keep me in a dead end repetitive hell? Do you guys have any other solutions?

Hey gang! I was let go of work today and the reasoning was “Pending investigation for time fraud”. They said I should get an email in 48 hours about the result. They did this to my 2 other coworkers a week ago and a day ago to the other one. Same reasonings. They never sent them an email. Are we eligible for unemployment in PA? The district manager just wanted to clean house. I have a new job that I start first week of February. Is it worth filing for unemployment? Again, I’m in PA.

I'll try to keep this concise but there's a lot to talk about in my workplace. I've been hired 2 years ago, and ever since then things only got progressively worse with the boss and his right hand woman. Shortening an extremely long story, our job is to MONITOR security systems… But we are expected to: Configure every single piece of software used on the sides to 'boost' the monitoring of the business, so it can compete with EXTREMELY BIGGER names such as Verisure. Help the boss with his personal bills and business purchases (as in, keeping tabs on his payment due dates). Clean the workplace, as in: sweep, scrub, wash, and leave it sparkling. We're also in charge of taking out the trash while running the chance of getting locked out of the building. Grocery shop for the business, and deliver packages to the mail office. Keep tabs on…

This is my first time posting here but I’ve found myself in quite a baffling situation. So the director of our department (my immediate supervisor) is retiring in March after 25 years of working there. She announced her retirement in October and said she was hoping they would hire her replacement before she left so she could train them. I was excited for her as she is a nice lady and certainly deserves to spend her golden years relaxing. It’s almost February now, so a couple days ago, I asked if we’ve gotten any good applicants yet. She proceeded to inform me that HR hasn’t even posted the position yet and we will likely be without a director for months after she leaves (if they ever even decide to hire one at all). She tried to assure us that we are capable of running the department ourselves, which we did…
