Just a little staff work room “humor.” I work at a school and this is the attitude of some of the admin. People wonder why teaching is hard.

When your boss gives you a wage increase that doesn’t match inflation, but now ‘expects more from you’

I’m salaried. I work 50 hrs per week. My boss is making put in PTO for being 30 minutes late this morning.

I was 30 minutes late to work this morning because my dog is sick and I spent most of the morning cleaning up some of the “messes” she made in the house. I get to work and I’m told by my boss to submit a PTO request since I was 30 minutes late. I’m a salaried employee and work a minimum of 50 hours per week. I’ve never been commended by my company for the minimum of 10 hours per week that I work for free. But they demand I use my PTO for being 30 minutes late one day. So I just submitted a PTO Request for 0.05 days to my boss to cover for the 30 minutes of “lost time”. Happy Monday!

He straight up lied to my face and said I make more than everyone except the one guy that's been longer than me. Keep in mind we are a small group of people and we all talk about money and I know for a fact that was a lie. I can't trust his judgement anymore, and I lost so much respect for someone I actually did look up to. So instead of motivating the team we are all almost resigned to working here and are looking…

I’m really sick of rich people telling the sick, disabled and minimum wage workers we should just budget when there’s no money to budget with. People are literally having to chose between feeding their kids and heating their house. Especially galling when they were born to rich parents.
