fair pay or forced labor?

How long do y'all think it would take the government to either try and force us back to work or finally start getting their shit together as far as pay, benefits leave etc if Americans were to just all stay home? I say I'd give them maybe four days before they try and force us back

Just quit my job after 7 months with no notice.

Felt pretty dam good to let them know today was my last day. Fuck giving a two weeks notice. I just waited till the end of the day and told HR that it was my last day. Lady tried to guilt trip me into staying for 2 weeks but given that the last two people who put in their 2 weeks notice were told to just leave there was no way I was gonna bother with that. (long rant) This company sucked ass. They underpaid their workers and targeted minorities to work for them because they knew they could under pay them. 75% of the people working there were Vietnamese, and 20% were Mexican (they specifically advertised jobs in Vietnamese newspapers around the area) and would tell you if you wanted more money to go somewhere else.

Rejection emails piss me off.

If you are going to send me a email for an interview and then reject me the next day. What's the fucking point? Send me an interview if you're actually gonna hire me. Stop wasting my fucking time.

I’m due to work 50+ hours a week, any advice?

I am a 19 year old and I’m tight for cash. I work in the cafe industry and therefore the wages and working conditions aren’t the best. I work at a sub minimum wage rate (I’m UK based and this is totally legal due to my age) and I’ve worked day in day out since September. My employer wants me to work 50+ hours per week, so I decided to look around to see other cafe options, with some offering 11 hours 4 days a week + midnight shifts as required. Any advice on how to survive this?
