Does anyone have experience with the myworday app/service that most multinational companies use for their recruitment. I have noticed recently that when I upload my resume to a recruiter or a company that just takes a direct resume that I always get a call back and inevitably an interview offer ( I turn down most of them when I get a full job description). However i have yet to even get a phone call when I upload to a myworkday site, just an automated email saying “unfortunately you haven't been selected on this occasion blah blah blah” that I can't reply to.

Be my bosses -make profits all throughout the pandemic by making employees take annual leave while getting rebates to keep them at work – unfairly promoting family members to management positions -loose good employees because of said shitfuckery -no raising wages for past 4 years -“OMG NO ONE WANTS TO WORK ANYMORE “ True story smh

I am a union member who thinks the American system is screwed up. I think corporations use and abuse people I used to like this sub but ever since the “interview” this sub has not been the same. I constantly see the same narrative day after day. Half the posts are obviously fake just to push said narrative it’s ridiculous.

I keep seeing posts about blatant NLRA violations, and all the chants over lawsuits and easy money, but I don't think I've seen any success stories in this regard. Anyone actually gotten a juicy payout this way?

I got accepted to SCAD a few months ago and since they're a private college, they have a $500 admission fee that I need to get paid off sometime before summer. I quit my last job 2 and a half months ago and I wanted to take a break from working before starting to work again. Well, now I'm at the point where I kinda need to get a job in order to have enough income ready for college and I've already gotten a few interview offers that I want to accept but… I just can't. The idea of being in a work environment again makes me insanely anxious. Every time I think about going back to work my stomach just sinks. I had a horrible, traumatic experience at my last job, which was also my first ever job. I was treated like complete shit by both management and coworkers…

Recently there was a manager shift at my work, the person who became my manager started just before me at my job not that it matters. My old boss was a complete tool – it was always if you don’t do this I’m taking this away, told me he was minimizing my access to make sure I wasn’t abusing it – without any follow up or additional explanations. He would message me asking why I was working on project A for so long via a screen shot and I would reply with a screen shot showing I had moved on to another project 15 minutes earlier, petty shit like that. So I have a disability (I won’t be elaborating) and I would ask my boss at times to shift the workload for me on days where I was struggling only to be told “well just work on what you can…

In the US the federal minimum wage of $7.25/hour hasn't changed since 2009. $7.25 today is equivalent to about $5.58 in 2009 with inflation. Really puts into perspective how much the minimum is falling behind the times and failing those who are forced to rely on it to get by. It genuinely doesn't matter what we end up making the minimum wage, whether it's $10, $15, $25, or $100/hour. If minimum wage doesn't get tied to inflation, you will ALWAYS fall behind and lose value again. THAT is what you really need to fight for.
