My company was acquired back in November. Prior to, I worked in one location but this rapidly changed once acquired. I expressed my concerns over traveling far distances especially since I had previous ongoing commitments. They were informed on multiple locations; but did not comply ; therefore, I gave my notice today!! It started when My manager was upset I called off for going to the ER for an allergic reaction. I told them this was not an ideal work environment. Sanctioning someone over an emergency!? Fuck that place.

Like, even if my job was getting blowjobs and doing cocaine, I wouldn't want to do it for 12 hours straight. Most service jobs require you to do double shifts back-to-back on Saturdays and Sundays. Fuck right off. It's almost like employers are actively trying to crush your soul with that shit. Especially if you're making a shit wage and not given enough hours to qualify for health insurance.

I think it’s been building up for a while but I just raged in a way I’ve never raged before. Scared the shit out of my wife. I was in my basement well away from everyone and I can’t even remember what set me off first. It was clearly audible because everyone is walking on egg shells now. Part of the fallout resulted in a damaged — no, destroyed — computer monitor; it’s like 6 years old and refurbished in the first place but it isn’t mine, it’s my companies. I’ve been interviewing for weeks now, mind is completely fucking pancake batter from coding in one language all day for my job and interviewing in another because I just about can’t stand writing C# and I need to get back to iOS and/or Android work. Additionally, the industry I’m in has sucked the life out of me. I accepted an…

I am so pissed and am trying to just wrap my head around everything that happened today, please excuse my rant. I went to my manager (has been remote and when you try to reach her mia) she has been semi-present for a few months) to ask a question and long story short the conversation went well until the very end when I was about to leave. She told me that we need to have a sit down with the owner. I have been with company for 2.5 years and he has been present maybe 5 times (body, not mind) (nobody cares about your wife Jennifer) currently in Florida vacationing, told us all about how he works so hard, even when he is in Florida he works till noon. Work ethic is important that’s what his Dad taught him when he took over the company and everyone needs to be…

If you're currently job hunting, you may come across WorkBoard. They pay pretty well, they're hiring a ton of web developers, and have been making some waves lately, so they may come up. WorkBoard is a dishonest, manipulative firm that is not to be trusted. They do not treat their candidates with respect and they're not worth your time. Without going into too much detail, they rescinded an offer almost a week after the offer had been made and accepted. Compensation was negotiated, and I was assured that the job was a done deal on numerous occasions. Only after resigning my current job did they withdraw the offer, citing budgetary reasons, leaving me unemployed. I was foolish to trust them, which was my mistake. I learned my lesson. But, at the same time, I was directly lied to numerous times throughout the process. I decided that the least I could…

I took this job for a little bit of extra money while I’m at uni, and I’ve had experience at this kind of place for years so it would be easy work. I failed to consider the managers might be awful. The first red flag was, after working there part time for a week, any questions I dared to ask about procedures were met with laughter (even in front of customers). Friday dinner is our busiest time of the week, a few DAYS into working there it was just me and my manager. I started getting busy so I went to the office to find her scrolling through tiktok and asked her to come help. Ten minutes later she came out to a queue of customers and delivery drivers waiting for orders and the first thing she said was ‘so you’ve not cleaned the fridge I asked you to then?’.…

I work at a Boston Pizza as a cook. One day me and one of my coworker were the inly two in the kitchen and he made a dish for an order far takeout. He was supposed to make a full order but he made it a little bit less than that. So the server told him to make it again, so he did. The old dish was of no use now therefore mu coworker started eating it after like 10 minutes and as he started eating it, the owner of the store walked in from the back door and saw him eating. He shouted at him for making a mistake with the order and then eating it without paying for it. He didn’t fire him because they are already short staffed. He accused me of stealing too as I was looking at my coworker while he was eating and…
