My boss was away for the weekend and so the evening before he came back, my co worker cleaned the cafe extra hard so that he hopefully wouldn’t complain of it being dirty. Anyway he comes back and decides the cafe isn’t clean enough and so he throws away both of our travel mugs cause he was annoyed. We use the mugs cause it keeps our coffee warm for longer as when it gets busy we don’t really have time to drink our coffees. I wasn’t even working that day and he still decided to throw away my mug. Also these are mugs we bought with our own money and we have never been told we can’t use them.

(Read that in the same tone as those Personal Injury ads.) If you're currently struggling, please check out this list and find who your local LSC grantee is. LSC, Legal Services Corporation (not actually a corporation I promise), backs legal service non-profits in every state and many major metropolitan areas. If you're low-income, especially if you're now struggling after unfair dismissal, they'll likely help you against wage theft and eviction.

Y'all have helped me see that I'm NOT trapped in my current job and that I DO deserve better pay for all the hard work I do. I'm starting to not stay late/come in early. I'm no longer going the extra mile. And, most importantly, I'm getting my resume updated and will be applying for jobs that are actually careers. I know some of my opinions on here are a bit controversial; but, this fellowship helped me realize just how much I'm being screwed.

Inflation is the misnomer, it's genuinely Capitalism. Record sales reported yearly, benefits and retirement scrapped away biannually with expectations raised to inhuman values whenever applicable. Hording wealth that is inconceivable. Synthetic Dragons that expect the riches to rain endlessly while also increasing in quantity every rainfall or else they puppeteer illusionary failure no matter the sacrifices you make or have made and if you're not willing to sacrifice what they say when they say it? You're worthless. “Inflation” is the perfect sheath for the blade that is Capitalism. You are being Capitalized upon, WE are being Capitalized upon. Marx was on the Mark…

Company has accidentally given me three 15k bonuses out of cycle for my role over the past 6 months… Yeah I'm keeping my mouth shut (except for bragging to internet strangers)

I have IBS and I've had to tell every manager I've had, this fact. Maybe I'd quit getting reprimanded for it if they could keep a new manager from quitting literally every fucking month I've been here. Oh, but I am allowed to not take my break to save my schedule adherence goal! I've shown up early every day and stay late the majority of days as well. I think the fact that I only missed 5 minutes is pretty damn good. Maybe next time I'll just shit the chair in the middle of the office and see if it takes them longer than 5 minutes to clean up.

I work for a hospital which happens to be the largest employer where I live. Every department is incredibly short staffed, and my department specifically is incredibly underpaid. Almost all of my co-workers have a second job. The company sent an email this morning notifying us of their super bowl ad, and when it will play. I guess I see where their priorities are, happy Friday!
