Antiwork

I was a Communtiy Manager living on site. My daughter, a minor, & her friend were being rebellious teenagers outside my home and got pills they thought were Percocet. I allowed her friend to spend the night. Her friend (while my daughter was sleeping) took 2 pills that were laced with fentanyl & she passed away. My daughter woke to her dead in her bed. Totally tragic. Horrifying! They immediately fired me. This is not how I live and would never have allowed any illegal substance in my home. Had to be out within two days of the notice. Single mother, never been out of a home! Traumatized & horrified we moved our things into storage & were homeless for a time. Is there legality for them to fire me for what my child & her friend chose to do?

Yesterday was my first day. I have to make my own materials to tutor with. It takes 2 hours to make a PowerPoint to teach a one hour lesson. I only get paid $20CAD for the hour lesson. Ill make less than 7 dollars an hour. My boss said maybe in 2 months I'll get a raise…. No way the raise will be high enough to where it's worth all the unpaid labour right? I'd need my wage to double which I highly doubt. Guess I'm just looking for validation that I should quit before doing another 2 hours of unpaid labour.

My work has been really busy lately and I’ve been working every holiday since I started. Today I woke up and I feel horrible and want to call in but the last time I did it was the end of may and I’m afraid of getting fired as last time I called in the manger was kinda pissed. I don’t wanna get in trouble but I also don’t wanna show up and half ass it while feeling like shit What should I do?

Working just doesn’t interest me. Every job description I read sounds miserable no matter how good the pay is. I’ve been unemployed since January. If it weren’t for the constant fear of poverty, homelessness, and food scarcity, I would be on cloud nine. All I want to do in this world is watch YouTube and travel and try new food. I want to play video games and make art and laugh at memes. I just want to enjoy being alive. There is no number of concessions the capital class can make to me I should work. I don't want to submit and debase myself by being some power-tripping manager's slave under threat of starvation. I refuse to waste my life on meaningless, tedious nonsense that actively helps to destroy the world I live in. I refuse to participate in a society that excludes me from its achievements. And for what?…

To make matters worse buying a house again became way more expensive and I regretted selling my house. I am a home owner again and I used the Two Cup method to manifest a better IT job with respectful managers and people at an Energy company so I am doing good now. I'm currently in Midwest USA and there's lots of racism here. The minorities get fired way more often and easily compared to the white majority. I witnessed an entire department of African American people get fired and the company's main client was a huge national retailer that was previously sued for discrimination and mistreatment of minority African Americans in another state. Then I was fired when I spoke about the wrongs I've seen. But months before I was fired the COO ordered me a prayer matt (Sujaayat) from Amazon. I am genetically part him and from the Middle…

Hi all, big fan of what is going on here and find myself far more comfortable championing others and not myself. I wanted to share my current situation to try and get some perspective, and advice. (I am located in the United Kingdom) ​ So I am in a WFH job and without sharing too much it is not something that really holds much value (in my opinion) and is a company that manages workers. My own views right from the start made it a bit of a tough pill to swallow, and I hate working with clients who actively try to find ways to pay their employees less, avoiding sick pay and holiday pay etc. From the start my boss made comments on my physical appearance but I put it to one side in an effort to see the person I suppose, despite my discomfort. (I have an ongoing…
