Antiwork

I applied for a supervisor role in my company after 4 years working there and only 1 missed day. Always had an exceed expectations rating and was promoted because my boss leaved and I learned programming a year ago so I was the most capable one. After asking what would be my salary they told me HR would let me know. 2 months later I keep asking my boss about it and he just told me that I will actually earning less money than before plus no paid overtime which is something I am not doing and my baby will be born in a few weeks. The worst part is that I promised my wife a few months ago that I'll get a new job and I did but never expected this shit it just plain sucks. BTW I am living in Mexico working for a truck leasing company based…

Basically I’ve worked at a major hospital since November. First hospital job and I work as a nursing assistant. My manager has always been super nice and even dropped my hours when I needed to for school without hesitation. I got to set up the one day I work (12 hour shift on sundays. I hate my job. I hate it hate it hate it. I didn’t really know what I was getting myself into because I’ve never had a hospital job, but I know now it is not for me. I have my two weeks notice written up, I just have to email it to my manager, but I feel so bad for doing so. Am I a bad person for quitting already?

So, I just spent two hours of my own time working through another course of “online training” for my corporate restaurant job. Upon reaching the end of it, the system failed, again, to register that I'd completed it. Now, I'm afraid I'm going to have to go in to work, on more of my own time, to use their computer to recomplete this, and other pending training courses. And, as of that wasn't bad enough, I can't find anything that indicates how much I'm being compensated for my time, if at all.

How many of you have ever searched a job in your field, just because? I ask this since here where I live in Denmark, I have repeatedly been encouraged by colleagues (and some union reps) to search for min. 2 jobs every year. Not because you want a different/new job. But to keep a sense about what others offer! I come from parents that valued being able to say they've been with the same company 25+ years. But they never realised what they where actually worth, because they were fine with a steady income. But times have changed. Don't let a false sense of security keep you at a position where you're not really happy. My dad learned that when he was laid off for “decreasing work load” bullsh*t. The new boss didn't like him. New job paid MORE THAN DOUBLE! same industry, same hours. Just one hell of a…

I didn't put my two weeks notice and have a job lined up. I was going to, but the job screwed up my mental health for 3 years. Too many people were stabbing each others back, people talked crap about you behind your back, and my paranoia was getting worse but yesterday did it. This solidified it, coworkers are not your friends. There are a couple they will get your back but the rest will screw you over for some cheap laughs. Had to figure out who got my back before I got my ass in more trouble. Also I now don't trust people anymore. My next job will be me not saying a word to anyone unless it has to do with the job. I'm staying the hell out of the drama. I knew it was a mistake saying anything. My parents were right, keep your damn head low.…
