Antiwork

I needed: a used reliable gas efficient car for the commute a phone upgrade (battery wasn't reliable) upgrade my laptop (because I'm poor and mine was 6 years old/worn out) Headphones for zoom interviews to reduce technical difficulties Also booked rooms in libraries for the interviews because I couldn't afford to upgrade my internet all new business casual clothes (my clothes were work clothes. shirts that come in bags, pants that are beat and torn, and work boots) accessories (bags, mice, keyboards, etc.) If I didn't have money saved up I wouldn't have been able to accept my new job, and I won't get my first check for another couple weeks. I love my new job, but holy shit you can't just “if you don't like it get a new job” if you don't have adequate money saved. I had to spend hundreds just to upgrade my router so I…

Cue the manager then complaining saying no one should be allowed to test at work, they should’ve finished their shift so that we wouldn’t be left short staffed and tested at home. This is actually the mentality of these people. Madness.
