will this be creative dismissal and what to do about it

So I am a bread baker at a local bakery in utah, the owner is an ass, who I suspect has been trying to get the bread team to quit for some reason. (Long unimportant story for now) Anyways, back in December our supplier told us that come April they could not keep supplying us with bread flower. Owner has known this for months and has not done anything about it, and with him being who he is, I will not be surprised if he doesn't do anything about it before it's to late Without flour we will not be able to do our jobs, and given what I know about the matter, it feels like if he refuses to give us the materials to do our jobs, it is similar to firing us, and will owe us unemployment. However I also know he won't see it that way. So…

I got written up for trying to follow safety guidelines.

I kindly explained to a customer that they couldn't block a fire exit and was written up for “talking back” to a customer. I was told in the meeting that it's okay to let these things slide and I'd be punished if I didn't immediately do what the customer requested. It's my first write up in ten years and I recorded the whole meeting my boss had with me about it. (It's legal to do so here) How illegal is what I've been told and how can I go about getting my work to follow these safety guidelines in the future? I live in Canada.

Street lights are down, electricity was blown out, trees are on the road, and even the radio stations are out. This is what GM says when I turned around to go back home

Why not start filing complaints against a company in interest of the workers?

Start berating managers for not providing chairs to their employees to sit in for example

Management doesn’t believe we are struggling.

I'm a pharmacy tech in the main pharmacy at the largest hospital in my state. We supply most medications to all the clinics, and units in the hospital, as well as several locations in the city. We have been struggling for months, and it's only gotten worse. Management is trying something they are calling “optimization”. Their goal is for us to be restocking the med machines in each unit with only the drugs that are actually being used. (We get a LOOOT of expired drugs back that are never touched). While I understand this idea and do agree with that concept, they have been rushing to finish it, which gives us a significant amount of extra work. They also have not been getting OUR input. Because of how quickly these changes are being made, we are having to start our duties hours later than usual, we are having a hugely…
