Antiwork

Seems like a lot of fascists hiding in this sub have spread the idea that we have to sympathize them because we’re both working class. I just wanted to make sure everyone knows that this sub is NOT for Nazi sympathizers. These people do NOT deserve your patience, if you meet one then don’t try to debate them- Tell them to go fuck themselves down a staircase. No sympathy for racists and fascists here, the door’s over there if you disagree

To provide some background I'm a business econ graduate who, due to covid, wasn't able to find a job when I graduated due to plans of moving to Florida once a vaccine was available. I moved here around July of 2021 and found a “contract-to-hire” analyst role in August. When I took this job I fully expected the opportunity to hire to be nothing more than bait to string me along. Fast forward to now; the recruiting agency hosting this contract position has mentioned the potential to hire once across all our communications stating back in November that the company I am being contracted out to is “aiming for the beginning of 2022.” As such I've been looking for new opportunities since the start of February and was contacted by a recruiter today who had a few direct hire analytics opportunities that seemed interesting to me. They asked about my…

I'm almost finished with my degree, and lately I have been thinking extensively about future career options. My research mostly turns up reasons NOT to work for a particular company or organization, so I want to flip the script, if only for a minute. What companies or organizations do you know of that do right by their employees? Where have you worked that you felt valued as an employee and as a person? Which companies work to make their employee's lives better and easier, have made positive changes recently, or have been doing things well all along? I figure those places must be out there, if only because, statistically, there must be someone doing things right.

I applied at a big telecom company and they allow me to work at home as mentioned in their job listing. I was like right on. I love it. work 2 days at home and 5 days at another job. The interview was unprofessional, asked so many dumb questions but I think they were desperate. I asked the salary. they gave me an estimate. I asked for the exact amount per hours or salary. it was $4 above minimum pay. Then I asked what are the schedule like? they replied……….. 5 days a week. from 4pm to 9pm. WTF?

I don't “do” social media usually. I have memberships at Instagram, Facebook, a few others (including, duh, Reddit) and am CAPABLE, but I'm not INTERESTED. I am now looking for a job. I have JD (law degree) and current licenses to work as an attorney in two States. I'm not interested in the current practice of billable-hour idiocy, I want a sane employer. To stay within the good /r/antiwork and /r/socialism and /r/union and etc. ethos, what websites would work best for me? I hear Linked-In is just a nightmare of neo-Liberal stinkstuff. I see Glassdoor is sometimes viewed positively here, though I understand it's not about job-LISTINGS but instead is for anonymous comparison. Many websites, such as salary-dot-com, just seem to be fronts for stealing my info and using it for their ends.
