Always assume that the company you're working for is working against you because they are.
Hey guys I am in Canada and was wondering if companies/the hotel provider have the right to search your hotel room on a fly in fly out job. I came back from my shift to my hotel room to find a notice that my room was randomly selected for a drug sniffing dog and security to check my room.

If I don’t talk to anyone all day, can’t I at least not talk to anyone from home? By the time I get home I’m just too tired to want to go out or do anything after work. I…
