The System-Tom Macdonald

Welcome to the world, baby boy, I'll paint you red and white and blue The indoctrination starts as soon as you come out the womb Pretty quick we'll make you stupid with curriculums at school And if the classroom doesn't do the trick, we'll make you watch the news Pick your team, right or left, pick the red pill or the blue You can vote, but even if you win, still everyone will lose Don't forget to buy designer because Gucci makes you cool We prioritize material belongings over truth Get a job that you can't stand so you can buy some cans of food Go overseas and die for freedom, there's some oil we could use Our democracy exists so that you think that you could choose But our algorithms make you do what we want you to do What's the problem, you're depressed? Society has you confused? We…

Need help before being given a write up

Hey, I don’t want to go into too much detail as to not compromise my employment just in case I have co workers or managers on r/antiwork, but I’m being threatened a write up for refusing to use my personal vehicle for business errands without the federal minimum mileage reimbursement rate. The duty I’m being told I have to do is outside of my job duties as it’s transporting large amounts of cash, which historically has been a manager responsibility. They want me to take on this liability and are offering far less than the federal rate of .65 per mile. When I asked for a company policy I signed stating this is my job duty they failed to present one and said it was just the rule. What I need help with is this: can anyone spare some time to help search Washington state laws on mileage reimbursement when…

My job expects me to do a 2 person job for 2 different departments (warehouse office worker). I need advice

Hello everyone, As the title suggests, my job expects me to do a 2 person job in a warehouse office answering emails and resolving issues, being a receptionist, helping other departments and also expected to “help” the Kitting department at my job. When I say “help” it means more that I'm an assistance to the woman that everyone hates because she can be rude, condensending, talking to you like you're an idiot, will yell and verbally abuse you but will kiss ass and try to mask herself a high pitch “cutsey” voice to get the upper management to keep liking her. Multiple people have quit due to her behavior and nothing has been done with her. When I first moved to this position I was told I would help her from time to time but now I'm doing about 80% of her paperwork, still expected to do all of my…

I am being “quiet fired”?

I work at a gas station, and recently, my hours got cut to almost nothing. When I asked my manager 'why' they claimed I 'was not completing my job duties' and that 'until they see improvement, I would not be given more hours'. I asked which job duties I hadn't completed (before the one shift they gave me this week) and have yet to get an answer. That was about 4 days ago. I'm already looking for another job and was basically just using the part-time hours I got from this one (while being classified as a full-time employee, btw) to help pay my bills, so I was already planning on quitting. I would just like to know what email I can send to the district manager to best explain the situation, because I can't pay my bills working so little, and I'm clearly being given no chance to actually…

What happens after resignation

So, my new lead is kind of a tool. Just got locked last week and he really expects me to stay with their project for 3+ years and work overtime too. I'm however planning to quit sometime around May but I agreed to get locked to this project because I didn't wanna spend another 2 months on bench. (I can take my bonus that way) My question is – what's the worst that a manager/lead can do out of spite when I quit just a month or two in the project apart from making my word load worse? Can they throw me into PIP or refuse to give me my relieving/experience letter after I've resigned? Opinions and advice pleaaaasseee

is it illegal how late and the way managers paid me ?

the restaurant i work at had a couple full bulding buyout events going on feb 18 and 19. the managers had told the servers that they would all get a flat pay rate on their hourly check instead of a tipout from the event. the rest of us support staff asked again and again if we were also getting an hourly rate and the answers were always “you will be getting paid” or “you will be taken care of.” so, we were all under the assumption of being tipped out for this event as support staff has NEVER gotten hourly rate instead. i finally received my payment for the buyout last night, mar 2nd, and it was on my hourly check. i looked up the tip pooling laws and if im correct, if i had been tipped out the latest they could’ve paid it to me was when i got…
