No handicap parking

US job has no handicap parking. I need it due to a hamstring surgery and have a temp handicap permit. I sent an email to HR and the GM and no response. Gm came to my desk and said they would correct the problem and get me a parking spot. No email response and no word for two weeks. I have to street park like most employees…. 1-2-3 blocks away. I thought there’s a law in the US for businesses to have handicap parking.

Corporate Being told off

I told my dad, who is a medium- large business owner, that I’m sending a mass email to my station. In the email it includes: •position responsibilities and issues •respect from managers •suggestions for new systems and advice •my opinion and thoughts on the time I’ve been there •expressed extreme gratitude for everyone who was helpful and kind to me • ended it with a direct message to two people. One kicked me around and abused her power. Another who was petty and didn’t stay in her lane. Basically just shed some light on problems and issues. He said it was wrong. That It will only come to bite me in the ass for future work references. He said that I should delete it although I told him my generation of workers(dob 2002) has had enough of getting kicked around. Q: Am I in the wrong or is this what…

Call center neglecting members

I work for a call center( health insurance ) and on Tuesday we had over 10000 calls .. usually we take the calls as they come in but due to high call volume we decided to take a callback list of members and we advised we will be reaching out within 48 hours . However we are still busy today and when I asked my supervisor if the members already received a call back he stated no due to us being busy still ? Can I report this to someone ? these ppl need assistance with medications transportation doctor visits etc ..

Managers were personally offended I left for another position

My current position requires a 4 weeks notice, which I submitted on 12/22/22. I work in health care and at this position for a year and 5 months, which I felt was an adequate amount of time especially with such low pay compared to other health systems in my area. Upon turning in my notice, I was brought into an office and yelled at, I was told I was ungrateful for giving up all the “opportunities” that they apparently supplied me. I was told I should have waited until after the holidays to submit my notice, yet this was the only opportunity I had to get the excessive 4 weeks notice started. They also went as far to say I was lying to them in the interview over a year and a half ago and that they took a real “risk” hiring me because I was a new grad. Funny,…

At the ER because job doesn’t understand I can fix my own shit

rant. I dislocated my pinky toe on Xmas doing stupid shit, playing with the kiddos and I popped it right back in place. told work I need to rest n heal it up, took pics of it all banged up, still wasn't enough to prove I had a injury I needed to heal. no no they need paper work. they need me to go to a hospital and pay for a doctor's note because they can't trust me to take care of my own fuckin body. all I needed from them was 2 weeks rest but they're taking it as I'm quitting and shit. right 2 weeks I get it but no, I told them I had an injury so why are they insinuating I'm quitting? now I wanna but I'm stuck in serfitude until… probably I die. fuck Indiana

I have no idea how I’m going to pass this

I have to take an assessment for a remote staff accounting position that I just interviewed for. I have severe testing anxiety and I don’t know how well I’m going to do on this. It sucks that companies base so much on these tests. How can I pass?

I have a feeling my boss is trying to fire me before I transfer departments, need advice.

I work at a university, and for 9 months I've been working for a professor running a research project. In that time, I've seen 9 coworkers leave our small group on bad terms, each citing the professor as being a nightmare. It's been hell. My strongest co-admin left after being humiliated to tears in a meeting, our best RA rage quit after prof berated them for not working overtime, and all that got me looking to transfer to another university department. Well I got hired by one, and my first day is Monday. But since announcing my two weeks, the boss has been on my ass over the tiniest things. I changed meeting ownership to another admin as you do when leaving a job, and the boss immediately jumps down my throat asking why I'm cancelling important meetings, not paying attention to the fact that they have been rescheduled. “Why…

Goodbye Corporation Message

I work for a corporate shipping company that will not be named. I was QA. I was above the lowest worker and the middle “management”. Today was my last day, because tomorrow I took a personal day in which I am technically still employed, till tomorrow. I wrote a massive email today that will be scheduled to be sent tonight at 11 PM. I was grateful and thankful for everyone’s attitude and resourcefulness, while I was QA for the last year. However, within the email, I gave suggestions,tips and advice on what I saw as QA. I said what was wrong, what should be addressed, what should be fixed. I asked those I was close with if they had anything they wanted to add without their names attached. I also included two peoples names, calling them out on their behavior and attitude. I CCed HR in which I had already…

Struggles of hating work

I hate working, until today I had a fairly decent paying job (much hiring that the UK average) but I am miserable working. I honestly just don't care about work. Someone asks me to do something be it a customer, manager, anyone, it goes to the bottom of my ever growing to do list and only gets done if it gets moaned about. I am starting to realise that I probably need to work for myself but whenever I talk to my friends about hating work in general most of them laugh me off and go yeah of course its work. As I alluded to above I have today been offered a settlement package to leave my job. Honestly I am not too fussed but there is part of me thats panicking and wanting to rush a get a new job, but i know that give it 6 – 12…
