Antiwork

You sold our futures to corporations because you were ignorant and scared. You allowed dogma to dominate science and killed millions because it was “the moral answer” to let the degenerates die. You continued to compromise. You ignored our basic education, while pushing us into debt for degrees you promised would give us better lives. Our world is dieing. Our society is dieing. Our planet is dieing. Around the world fascists are gaining power because you're afraid. You cry that we're not introducing children to this hellscape. You ask us to treat our men as drones and our women as broodsows. All so that we can care for you when you stop working. We hold no illusions that the system is going to care for us. We've been let down at every turn now. We will not care for you. You will work, as you asked us to work, until…

I have no idea if this is the right place or not but here we go. I’m casual, been working with this company nearly a year. I’m booked for surgery and will have roughly 1-2 weeks off. I’ve been eager for a holiday to see friends but I have a reason to believe that this will be seen as a “holiday break” to the 7 people I work with. How can/do I book for holidays if nobody can cover me? I work with older people who’ve accumulated weeks of sick leave, RDOs etc and it’s not been an issue for them. I work warehousing with millions of product and yes, seven people. Australia.

I work for a real estate firm as an appraiser and my job is basically to look at properties and tell the company how much the property is worth. Me and another co worker started at the same time and our probationary period is almost up in 2 week. As I was working today, I herd my manager mention that he has a few interviews to do for this week for our department . Between me and the other co worker, I tend to be a bit slower with my work but I don’t make a whole lot of mistakes. The other coworker tends to be a bit faster with his work but tends to make a few more mistakes than me. It’s kinda hard to explain but every time someone makes a mistake, it cost our company a few thousand dollars so make it a point to be as…

Towards the beginning of July I got laid off and I am now coming on 3 months of unemployment. This is the first time in my young adult life that I've been truly unemployed in the past 5 years. It's been a rather jarring and depressing experience thus far. I wasn't that social to begin with but now I don't really go outside much besides for a run and groceries/errands. I don't feel comfortable spending money on anything besides rent and food yet it's still kind of debilitating looking at my bank account. My savings are alright and I'm getting unemployment payments but it doesn't feel right to have a decrease in my account every month. Idk, the thing that sparked this was a job rejection I got yesterday after I had I thought I did an alright interview for. I keep looking for jobs but there are virtually no…

Just left one of the most disgusting jobs I've worked with no notice and now am looking to seek revenge by leaving a glassdoor review. How does this sound? “First of all, the company is a health and safety disaster. They try to appear to be very on top of health and safety, but neglect the extremely dangerous production area, where the few people who work there are suffering from allergic reactions and health problems. The production area is run by a supervisor who is unintelligent, simple-minded and not certified for the job. They make you work like a slave, at an extremely fast pace – which feels like a disaster waiting to happen in the dangerous conditions of the mixing room. Often times, I would accidentally have gotten chemicals on my skin but would feel too pressured by the supervisor to have time to wash it off. On some…

I work(ed) for a native American tribe and got to experience first hand how awful unbridled capitalism can be. I worked for a casino that would actively try to fire people with disabilities. They've fired numerous people who are legally disabled by writing people up for rules that didnt exist. During March of this year I was snowed in for 3 weeks with power and Internet going out constantly, I ended up with over 90 inches of snow at my house which in southern California is unheard of. My work sent out a notice stating that people in the impacted area would not be penalized for missing work, except for me. I was the only person singled out to be fired. I managed to keep my job through that some how, but then they started giving me worse positions even though I was more qualified than my peers, they'd give…

The company I work at gave me a new laptop this year. I take it to work and home in case I need to work on something at home. I have it stored in my laptop bag. My car got broke into and my laptop bag got snatched. I was originally just going to pay for the damages to my car out of pocket since the cost to repair is only a couple hundred more than the deductible. I got an email demanding that “You will file a loss of property…” regarding fixing my car and also for the laptop that got stolen. Is this legal? Ethical? Is the company able to garnish my wages or take any adverse actions against me in this situation?

So long story short, my place of work is extremely disgusting. These are just some pictures of the deli where they prepare food for customers. Not even of other places that have worse/similar issues. I’ve gone to my GM about this many times and nothing has changed, if anything it’s gotten worse because she doesn’t have any sort of discipline or punishment for people that don’t do their work here. Often times I’m coming in for my shift and the maintenance person from the shift before me didn’t even clean the bathrooms, or our showers are dirty and used but they put them all into clean status before leaving, or the trashes outside are overflowing because they won’t change them before leaving. And the shift manager isn’t any better because she constantly says everything is done and won’t go and check people work like she’s supposed to do. I just…
