manager reduced shifts intentionally

I bartend events and paid decently hourly considering. Some shifts are solely bartending while some shifts involve bartending one well and bartending another well with a server. So bartender is working two wells. Server works with customers taking drink orders and preparing light finger food buffet style. Server is paid 60% more hourly + tips. Issues- server wants to split tips 50/50 from both wells, while they only work with the one well. Bartender makes 75%-80% of drinks for the shared well (server makes the remaining) and 100% for second well. How would you expect tip outs to be handled? 50/50 split with someone making 60% and hour more feels like giving my tips away. Refusing this new way of tipping out until speaking with a manager, has resulted in shifts being taken away.

I never am working a warehouse job again.

I hate the feeling that people around me just don’t fucking care. All of these boxes are avalanching towards me but get upset I’m not moving super fast. I’m sick of them getting upset of me about jams and stuff that isn’t my fault. I’m trying my absolute best and they don’t care. I am never working at that place again….

The time I was threatened with disciplinary action when I took a smoke break when I don’t smoke.

I seen a meme today 'for my next job I'm going to pretend I have a child so I can milk all the time off that other people get' and it reminded me of a surreal situation in an old job that escalated so quickly and the epic justice that was subsequently dished out. Long story short is that nobody bats an eyelid when smokers get their fix but if I take an unplanned break and I'm in the toilet for more than 5 minutes I will literally get phone calls. One day I see a conga line of smokers going out and decide I want to stretch my legs, socialize and get some fresh air. Do I smoke? Fuck no. Naturally the place is getting busier. This smug individual that works in upper management overhears my colleagues joking with me saying 'haha this guy doesn't even smoke, big IQ…

HR is harrassing me over a $40 bonus. What can I do?

NOT A REPOST, but a continuation: For context, I(23F) mentioned previously that I was given a $125 giftcard for my holiday bonus. I was not originally supposed to receive it as I was still in my 90 period at the time, but the owner of the store approved it anyway as I worked the busiest nights. He did this for all the newhires scheduled on those nights as well. A week later, HR messaged me asking for the giftcard back as I was not originally supposed to receive it. By that time, I had already long-spent the money. I explained that the owner had us write our names down and that he personally approved us for the same bonus. The other newhires involved also confirmed this, yet HR claimed it was a “bonus discrepancy” and that it would need to be handled. About a week after, we (the newhires involved…

Being a millennial who got my ass handed to me with the Great Recession, I was lucky my parents took me in at 31 so I could change careers. Hate that the “avocado toast” argument is happening again to the next generation.

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT? IT IS NOT THE CONSUMERS JOB TO PAY EMPLOYEES!

Jesus Christ doordash boot lickers are hilarious. Saw one of those door dash posts where a driver ate a customers food bc the tip wasn’t enough. And everyone in the comments was bitching about how nobody wants to tip and that greedy customers is the reason they can’t make ends meet YOU ARENT SUPPOSED TO BE ABLE TO MAKE ENDS MEET! Like god damn is it really on the consumer to pay your bills not the company you work for? They talk like it’s doordash customers that are oppressing them Most ppl don’t have the money to pay for an overpriced meal plus an overpriced delivery service plus a tip that may or may not get skimmed by doordash or the restaurant and may or may not be enough incentive to get your food while it’s still warm and not spit in. “If you can’t afford a tip don’t use…
