I have a coworker who loves me.. I know it's not something to complain about, having a coworker that I get along with. The problem is that we work remotely and she calls me very very frequently. At least 3 times a day. And the call lasts for hours. We just talk while we work. It's honestly so distracting for me but she says that she likes working that way because it makes her day go by faster. Our manager has said that he doesnt mind this as long as we're getting our work done. I've already tried telling her multiple times that I prefer to not be on the phone all of the time and she'll stop calling for a day or two but then slowly she builds back up to it I just don't know what to do. When I tell her that I don't want to talk,…

Basically the title. Obviously i know its essentially a way to discuss unfair/unsafe/unsatisfactory business practices. But, i guess im curios about the more detailed reasons

Young and naive, I accepted what seemed to be a dream job last year at a very small business (owner and one other employee) on the boss’ condition that they would pay me as a self employed 1099 contractor as a “trial”. I was paid the full salary for 5 months with the employer taking out no taxes; I set the money aside to pay them myself. Boss’ attorney informed them that this was illegal and I was paid as a regular W2 employee for the sixth month. Well, boss turned out to be a horrible psycho and I quit after month 6. That was June. Fast forward to now. They purposefully neglected to send me any tax forms at all. They said they would send them this week, so I’m expecting a 1099 and W2 next week but I’m wondering if I should fill out the IRS report form…

Today, I saw Jeff Bezos' autobiography in a book store. This is someone that got to where he is by screwing a lot of people over, whether it's employees, bricks and mortar stores or distribution networks. If someone mistakenly gave it to me as a gift, I'd put it on the front lawn, drop a litre of two of fuel on it and burn it to ashes

I’ve worked for this company for 3 years. In that time I’ve always completed my tasks and did tasks to help other departments. Though it was outside of my job description, I didn’t mind the experience and learning more about the company. My job title was “sales/customer service” but in reality it was more taking my orders and everyone else’s orders in the company and processing/ordering material. I was also dragged into releasing projects which is breaking down lists of materials, counting all duplicate items per bid, find our sell price and cost then process it and purchase the material and make sure material shipped on time. When I first started this company was roughly a 12-14 million dollar company, compared to this year it’s worth is about 20 million dollars. In that time we’ve added more people so in total the company had around 15-16 employees and I was…

Interviews, both recorded and on zoom, plus tests, and then they tell me they only interviewed people as a formality when they knew all along they were hiring internally. What is that bullshit?

A company I worked with a few years ago is being sued by another former employee for unpaid overtime wages due to allegedly improperly classifying certain folks as not being eligible for overtime pay. I received the notice in the mail and must take action to opt in. If I don't respond, I'll be excluded by default. I'm not an expert in employment law, but I'm struggling with whether I should or should not join the lawsuit. The company was always good to me, and to my knowledge was super generous to everyone (insanely lucrative salaries, benefits, bonuses, lots of internal promotions & training, etc.). For those reasons, I'd feel icky and greedy for joining the lawsuit. Thoughts from the Reddit community?
