I (23f) work at a wine shop that doubles as a post office in the UK. It's my first job after about 2 years of therapy and I started back in mid-December and didn't notice any of the problems until around midway through February. I have no contract or payslip, no chances of a raise, we don't even have an accessible fire escape or a till that automatically inputs prices. I work 3-4 days, sometimes 5 a week but the workload is really stressful because we do evening shifts alone and those usually consist of moving two or three dozen cases of alcohol or soft drinks up 3 flights of stairs. In February I offered to help cover some of my coworker's shifts so she could focus on exams. I ended up having 4 days off through the entire month. Suffice to say after that I lost any interest in…

I want 4 days in the middle of June. That's it, 4 days! Got told no bc we can't have more than 2 people off at the same time and that I should always check with my employer before I decide to go on holiday. I hate it here.

Before I applied for this job I was working as an electrician apprentice where I was working around 55-70 hours a week earning $15/hr , eventually waking up at 4:30AM and coming home around 7-8PM was completely draining of my life force and I accepted that it was not worth my time, effort and I could use more money. So fast forward to today I receive a message to further talk more about the position and to set a interview date and time, to my surprise it ended up as a phone interview. Towards the end the interviewer asked me “What was your hardest job that you worked and why?” in which I replied in regards about my apprenticeship the extremely long work hours and lack of work life balance. Funny enough, after I said that the interviewer said that I seem to be a lazy worker and that they're…

I need somewhere to vent because I feel like I’m losing my mind I want to start with I’m in the US in a state that offers decent state subsidized health insurance but it’s still kind of pricey depending on your wages. I manage the kitchen in a restaurant with plans of expanding to a second location. My role then would be to manage the kitchen in both locations. At the beginning of my job my partner and I split so I needed to move. The owners (a married couple) of the restaurant were nice enough to rent me an apartment in a building they own for a slight discount but I still pay $2,000 a month. Before the apartment I was given $250 a month for health insurance stipend which the husband of the couple said we renegotiated I would not receive the stipend anymore because of the apartment…

Hi I'm getting sick of my job and I believe I'm going to lose it in 6 weeks anyway because they fired the cool manager who was the only reason I stayed an extra 8 months longer than expected (I got and started another job, then this manager started and ALL the issues at the job were solved so I stayed), and now the guy who gave me 6 weeks off on a whim because we were slow, granted me a grace period for being late because I live 27 miles away and suffer from Time Blindness through ADHD (my employers are Chinese and have difficulty understanding this concept so it was hard to get it across even with a psychiatrists note), when before I was at risk of losing my job for being late 30 seconds to 2 minutes on days I even WAS late (it's a 7-10 minute…
