Antiwork

Hi guys i’m a college student who’s set to graduate in a few months, I recently got 2 graduate job offers from, let’s say company A and B, for the same title, the thing is company A pays 5-7k higher than company B. I was offered the higher paying one by email and they mentioned that more details about the contract will be released closer to the starting time (July), it’s been 2 months and i’m currently waiting for more information from them. The thing is company B have emailed me twice in the last week about whether or not i’ll be accepting their offer, although i’d prefer to go to company A (not just because of the money), I haven’t heard any word from them since, even when I recently tried to reach out to them, I didn’t want company B to email me a third time about their…

My last job was being a Supervisor for a store which closed when Covid began. I worked at other locations and it was hell. Workplace bullying,gaslighting, hostile environment etc etc. I ALWAYS felt as if I was being targeted and never knew why. After it got so bad I ended up going to HR. Fast forward managers gave me a work performance review a couple weeks later which were all lowest scores except my attendance because I was never late, never called out. It was terrible, I should have sued tbh. Anywho, I got my own store to supervise then COVID hits. I got a call from the corporation which is located in New York to tell me I've been terminated/laid off from the company. Okay, fine. I was expecting that because of COVID. I ended up texting my coworkers and none of them got the call JUST ME! Even…

No, for real. Shit happened and I'd love Reddit's advice. But there are many many words I need to write. Ty.

Hi guys, I'm a longtime browser and first time poster. This is a throwaway account I've created for this post. I have been working as a senior video editor at a production company based in Manchester UK for just over a year. In January, coming up to a years employment my manager and the company CEO informed my i would be taking a pay cut from £25,000 per annum to £22,000, as well as being demoted to a video editor role. I disagreed to this and did not sign any paperwork while i began job hunting. They all seemed really shocked when I handed in my notice. I had a few days remaining in PTO so decided to make use of it during my notice period. This is where it gets complicated – on my last day I had found out all other employees had been paid except for me.…

Current job. Surprisingly good pay in mom and pop retail that I really like. I'm being trained for store manager. No benefits besides chill atmosphere, very near my house, great boss and owners and very importantly, I work part time for 6 months in the winter and still get paid well. New job offer. Twice the pay of the other. Paid benefits and tuition paid for. Desk job. High stress. Large company with deep pockets. Little/ no human interaction(I love podcasts) long commute, remote work as desired. I'm thinking about having kids and they would be better off at the new job, but I would be less happy at my work.

I learned many years ago you can do that with a high school diploma, but I recently got a degree and noticed employers are not asking to see it even after an interview. Work sucks but if you must do it, I hope this helps you get the job

I don't know why this is even a debate. Imagine if your boss told you that they wouldn't be paying you enough to survive at the end of the workweek. That's essentially what they're saying every time they pay you less than the living wage in your state. But even if you don't give two shits about low-income workers, sub-living wages are bad for you too. The reason why the government will never get rid of welfare, food stamps, and similar support is because a significant portion of the population would be starving and homeless otherwise. Why are they so dependent? Because they aren't paid a living wage. Businesses figured out years ago that they could simply make the taxpayer subsidize the wages of their employees, like an even shittier version of tipping. Walmart, the nation's biggest employer, has mastered this scam. The company actually aids its employees in applying…
