If the referees in this year's Super Bowl had used the 1965 NFL rule book, the fans would have gone insane. The rules have changed every year. Everyone is expected to keep up to date. So job hunting, workplace hours, pay schedules, CoL, etc. have also changed every year since 1965. But we're all expected to play the same game they played in 1965. Must be nice to be able to ignore reality.
I moved cross country to get a better start on my career. I started off as a Bench Operator which has allowed numerous opportunities to learn the trade while training while not signing permanently into a job position with good pay and overtime. However, I have done now about eight interviews without a single hiring yet. I can tell it is annoying to my coworkers as I don't have the responsibility they do. I'm not sure how to approach things at all? The issue is the company is trying to put a new workforce into roles that require years of experience I don't quite have. I'm starting to get depressed because I moved so far to do this job. Like why does my work have to do this to me? I could have already had a break in on my work area but nope. I have to stay on the…
Wtf am I supposed to do with this bs ? I have already applied at multiple jobs, spoken to recruiters and can't get passed a first interview. I'm tired of this bs and would rather get spat on then have this miserable raise.

My coworker has been out for about four months due to neck surgery. They told her the whole time, take your time, your job is still waiting here for you. She is now ready to come back, but they just told her that she is being terminated, and will not give her a reason. She has worked here for 24 years. They did not hire anyone to fill her job this whole time, but about two weeks ago they moved a temp from another position into her role. Of course the temp has much lower pay and no benefits.
I was fired from my job after taking a sick day in November. I tried to claim unemployment but was denied. Finally got a letter in the mail from edd saying it was because I “willing quit” my job even though I was very clearly fired. Without any documentation, what are my options?
It drives me nuts. I've had a few jobs say this and they just end up treating you like shit. Now when I hear this at an interview, I just want to roll my eyes. Is this some sort of business slang to bullshit potential employees?
