I’m not full time but I’m responsible for bringing in at least half the revenue. It’s not like I’m being greedy, but an extra $295.20 per year would bring my hourly rate to $69.420 per hour…. Maybe I can negotiate a few hours less per year to compensate….

I had just started working for the first time ever in my life and I feel like my efforts and my time and my work should be paid more to do any of this. It is very simple work but at the end of the day it is really really tiredsome and I feel like I just don't want to work anymore. It just has become so overly tiresome and overwhelming and it's so weird that I get paid $12 an hour just to deal with some privileged people. I feel like I'm trapped and I can't do anything I want to be rich and free but how can I? I'm just 16.

If your employer has a performance quota and no production pay. Also have a bogus disciplinary actions such as verbal or written warnings, up to termination. If these production quota is not made? What would you do to stop or ask for compensation?

I was a tryhard, hell still am, but… they finally got me broken now. Internal hostile takeover, they're shipping us off to whatever ZONES they feel are best regardless of what we want, regardless of what expertise we have, regardless of ANYTHING. We get no say and they're slowly going to implement scope creep till its all just untenable. Doubling and tripling our userbases while making us train new folks under us who are hired in at higher rates with lesser knowledge and skill. I used to care… I busted my ASS because I was getting merit rewards for it, cleaning up a system that was so broken, getting good raises, but now… It just doesn't matter. They'll increase the workload till I can't possibly function at that level, say my KPIs are down, put my ass on a PIP and laugh while the pinkslip of damocles swings overhead. ALL…

I started a new job 4 weeks ago. Probation is 6 months. I work as payroll – which HR used to handle. This job pays an ungodly amount of money for the role. However, I'm incredibly uncomfortable with a conversation HR had with me 2 weeks in & I don't know how to go about recording it because she is the only HR. HR: are you religious? Me: (completely blindsided) No I'm gay. HR: so you can't be religious? Me: I'm an atheist HR: so what do you think happens when you die? Me: …..you're dead, that's it. HR: have you ever tried going to church? Do you not feel like you're missing a sense of community? Me: not really HR: but have you tried? Me: yes, and it wasn't for me. HR: are your parents religious? Me: no, atheist HR: so have you really tried? Me: (trying very hard…

A recruiter reached out to me with a position. I thought it might be a great opportunity. I scheduled an interview that was via Zoom. When I logged on, there were several other “candidates” and then we sat through a power point presentation that was 30 minutes. They then told send us a text that’s 20 seconds long as to why you should move forward. I should have trusted my first instincts and left in the first 2 minutes. I sent the recruiter an email requesting transparency but I am so annoyed.
