Antiwork

Does anybody have any work from home jobs that they know about or ways to make decent money online? I'm even willing to sit with my laptop and do surveys all day long but if they're surveys that pay more than $ .50 per survey. Long story short I'm not working because I had a back injury “not work related” and bills are piling up and I'm starting to stress out and this back injury has cause it to where I can't even stand more than 5 minutes. It's been forever since I even went into a store everything I get now is through online and delivery it socks. I just want to get some remote work with benefits so I can work without furthering the injury and also be able to see a specialist.

So someone in my small office invited everyone in our department, (there our 11 of us), to a pool party/ pot luck. I thought it was really nice of them, however I declined because I had prior plans already. Out of 11 of us, 4 people ended up going. I guess they were talking about work, & the host revealed how they reported a manager to the labor board. This got back to the manager from someone at the outing. The real kicker is, someone at the outing is blaming another for telling, but who really knows it may be them and they are just blaming the other person. So so glad I didn’t go now, because who knows I could of blamed for telling. Drama drama drama.

Sorry, but do I get to come in 20 min late depending on experience? Maybe some extra breaktime if I'm inexperienced? Am I allowed some bonus fuckups DoE? Does the company handbook not fully apply to me — DoE?? No. I still have to do all the same shit to the same standard. Depending on Experience is how I evaluate you as an employer. That means that I want speak to your current and recently departed staff. How about whoever left the role I'll be filling, first and foremost. Depending on their experience with you as an employer, I'll let you know what it would take to put me in this job. Fuck off work with this. Pay for the job.

Very fed up with my job and at a stage where there’s no real incentive to stay due to lack of opportunities or relevant areas to grow for my career should I get a promotion in the near future. I’m very tempted to just quit without having a backup job lined up for my own mental health but of course would need to keep some money coming in, have others been in similar spots? I’m thinking of temp or contract work but would like other options too, especially with not being sure about wanting to continue to be another cog in the machine but still needing to make enough money to just afford living these days Thanks for any help and sorry if this is too common of a post!

I have a manager who's a textbook gaslighter. Constantly tells you you should be proactive and take on more stuff and work. I honestly did not have the bandwidth to work last week and on Thursday and Friday I was done and my body could not literally move and all I could do is lie down. The week before last week I overworked myself cuz I had to meet client deadlines. Tomorrow I have to face the manager in the meeting again and my anxiety is kicking in. I don't know what I will say as an update for my work. And this is a thing we are supposed to say what we worked on the previous day every day.

I just need to vent, I've just been turned down for a part time sales associate position at a retail store. I've been applying everywhere to get a second job so I can y'know afford to put some food on my table and maybe have some extra money. I thought I'd ask why, so I could maybe improve myself in my future job interviews.I just been told it's because they're looking for someone with more experience and more flexible hours. I have over 5 years of experience in retail, most of it in manager positions. And now I'm getting told I lack experience for a Part Time basic sales associate position? What more experience do I need??? I'm so discouraged and frustrated.

Sometimes, it feels pointless to demand a livable wage and humane work environments as a disabled person. I cannot work a traditional 40 hour week, I have ongoing and time-consuming doctors appointments, and I often wonder if I “count” as a worker deserving of the kind of support antiwork fights for. The overwhelming suggestion is to apply for disability benefits, but most people don’t realize it takes years and many people who clearly need it don’t qualify for it. Anyone else? How are you dealing with your disabilities and your finances? What jobs have worked for you? What kind of workplace do you need?

Got my first office job at a small start up company a couple of months ago, they knew I hadn’t done it before and promised decent training. There were no other staff members, just me in an office by myself. Instead, I was taught the very basics, nothing more and whenever I asked for help, management just took over and I ended up not learning anything. Boss worked from home most days when they could have been in the office teaching me all the things they said I should be taught to do. Whenever I asked for feedback I was told I was doing “fine”. Boss was due to go on holiday and expected me to run everything by myself while they were gone. Whenever I expressed that I felt unprepared to it was dismissed as a lack of confidence, not knowledge. Of course then when they go on holiday…

i’m a keyholder at a pet store in canada. we have a rewards program that’s pushed EXTREMELY hard by corporate. up until now our manager was pretty chill about it but she suddenly decided that we HAVE to get over 50% sign up rate every day. i’m autistic with social anxiety so it’s really really hard for me to even ask about making an account in the first place, let alone basically harass someone who has already said no (supposed to ask three times). manager said “we can’t take no for an answer.” my sign up rates are bad but im the only reliable keyholder, always on time, never cause problems, almost never call out. and she wants to cut my hours if my sign ups don’t go up. i fucking hate North American retail culture so much. why is is expected to harass and bug customers until they fucking…

I started to work the 9th of may in a pizzería but my boss was a scammer and after working for 2 months I left and start working at an Italian restaurant the 14 of July. The thing is that soon my contract is gonna end in this Italian place so I'm thinking if it's better to combine the two jobs and say like I've been working in the Italian place 5 months so it doesn't look bad that in the two of the places I worked so little. I would like to say that I'm in Copenhagen, I arrive the 1 of may so maybe being new here is acceptable that I worked so little in the two places. What do you think ?
