How soon after getting hired have you quit?

I just started a new job just over a week ago and I already feel like quitting. It just doesn’t feel like the right fit for me. I haven’t even met my manager yet so I’m feeling like I can’t just quit. I’m actually considering hanging on for six months just so I don’t feel guilty. ugh I really don’t know what to do

My boss brazenly told me about his intent to to fire my co-worker, but couldn’t because Legal stopped him. Was telling me that story a violation of some sort of HR policy? Privacy? Confidentiality?

Appreciate your help.

Colleagues laid off out of the blue. How to organize ourselves to demand better conditions moving forward?

So the company I work at laid off 15% of its workforce last week, and now I'm wondering – what can I and my coworkers do to organize ourselves and improve conditions, specially transparency, moving forward? The CEO is parroting the same used line how he's taking the full responsibility, but I don't see him stepping down or announcing any changes regarding his pay. What can we do to protect ourselves?

Company wants me back

So few days ago i posted about 2 weeks notice and 14 days of work without rest. Now i got call from company i escaped(job i worked before coming to this shithole where i work everday) like they “heared” im quiting this job so they are ready to give me better contract and better salary. At that job i was legit doing everything, that position i was working was ment to be for 4 people. Of course i was alone because everyone escaped but i needed money. I became perfect at that job but low payments…. After i walked out as well after 2 years, 4 people came to replace me and everyone walked out after a month. Im glad they maybe respect my skills now but its too late.

I feel dead inside

I work in a place where our “administrative assistant” is an absolute nightmare. Her and I had a sit down with HR and our supervisor. This girl really sat here and made herself the victim. I've never been berated, belittled, harassed, like I have with this immature human. She got upset because I finally started standing up to her. She claims she's “trying so hard to be nice. You just aren't receptive.” I'm tired of her condescending, snarky attitude when I've done nothing but bend over backwards to prove my worth in this place. I've said that multiple times. This girl really said to my face she doesn't respect me as a colleague and I'm essentially lazy. “You cant multitask very well and it's frustrating. And you aren't on my level so it's hard for me to respect you.” To which my supervisor just goes “it's a trust thing for…

Someone had to say this.. Tipping SHOULD be optional.

Tipping is a customer’s way of saying thank you. This shouldn’t be mandatory like it is in the US. Companies should pay a living wage to employees so that they don’t have to fight for their tips.
