Antiwork

I started working part-time at a city gym this past weekend. While I was in training, this woman comes up to the desk and she seems really stressed, she says that she thinks her grandma is working out and she needs to go to work but her grandma has her car keys. the manager let's her into the gym to find her grandma. we see her kinda wandering around and she eventually leaves, saying she can't find her grandma. just as she leaves, someone runs up to the desk saying her bag was stolen. immediately they both start accusing the woman looking for her grandma. Now, there's a good chance it was her since she was the only one that didn't sign in that morning, but they both immediately start saying it was her because she was black and there were no other black people in the gym. The manager…

Hi all, I know a bunch of you have made custom images to be printed out with services like vista print and such but I’ve had difficulty locating decent ones, can anyone link posts or links to images here? I’m trying to find ones that promote this sub as well as WorkersFightBack. Or maybe it’s WorkersStrikeBack, I’ll look, and edit this. I have some bills to pay in the upcoming weeks and am hoping to drop some cards in the envelopes Thanks in advance!!

Some of the tales on this thread reminded me of this one, so here goes: I used to get casual labor from Home Depot, where there was always a bunch of great guys out there looking for honest work. I always paid above fair pay, and fed and gave them protective gear, water, etc. I had three favorites, and had the number of one, so I could call him when needed. My neighbor asked me about them one day, said he needed some work done in his yard, so I called my guy, and the three came over. I saw them working at his place for two days: great, they're making some money. Saw my neighbor a few days later, asked him how it went. “Great! I got all that fucking work done for free!” “How so?” “Well, they're all illegals, so when they finished, I just told them to…

I work as a sever at a very popular chain and they are constantly making their workers stay and finish working while off the clock. They will try and get us off the clock as quick as possible if labor is even close to being “too high.” They say that that extra $10/h doesn’t mean much cause we make a good amount in tips but that’s not right. This is the same company that got sued for back logging clock out times of their staff and I’m just so angry. They are taking advantage of people like me who are too nice for their own good. They also have the nerve to have a problem with me going on “vacation” to visit my dad who currently lives in another state that costs me 100s to fly too and wont give me a better position. They also say they won’t give…

This makes me crazy. Everytime I see one of those “I quit today” text message posts, the poster always try to justify themselves about why they can’t go to work/cover a shift. If you’ve requested a day off and it’s been approved, you are good to do whatever you want on that day. Yesterday someone texted their boss they couldn’t because they had a flight, today because they had to put their dog down. You don’t have to. It’s Illegal in some countries for a boss to contact employees when said employees are off. You don’t have to feel bad/guilty, you requested something that’s been approved, now it’s your boss’ business to find someone on those days. “I’m sorry but I have a day off and I’m taking it”. That’s all you need. It might look better to tell your boss you have si or ça, but don’t waste time…
