Antiwork

Let me explain. I just got into a shouting match with my boss, at a trucking company I just started at. I decided to apologize to him, but honestly, it began essentially because I told him I wasn't going to let him talk to me like he did, and however he felt about me having to go home (due to a personal emergency, and I did explain what was going on to him, because he asked), you don't talk to people like that, and him telling me that me showing up late ONE day last week, because of traffic on both the main and alternate routes, traffic that, had it not been there, I would have been 45 minutes early, was somehow disrespectful to him. And it's not like I don't understand where he's coming from, it probably does seem unreliable when someone has issues when they start a job.…

Is it normal for a manager to assign someone’s full workload to one team member when someone is out on maternity leave? Relevant info: She has a higher job title than I do; we have multiple team members; I have the lowest job title of the group. Any advice? Is there anything I can ask for? I already asked for a promotion and used this as one of the pieces of evidence. The promotion was verbally approved, but stated that it won’t go into place until December. Edit – I am expected to maintain all my current job responsibilities in addition the full work load of my team member.

So, I have been with my company for 6 months. I love what I do and have done it for a few years. I am a medical transportation driver. But, my new company really sucks. I started out helping out in 2 different sides of the company. I grew to love it though and was really content. But, now they are staffed up and do not need me anymore on the one side, so I lost all overtime, and am stuck driving the shitty van and with crap hours. It really just sucked to be used and then disregarded after helping them for months. I dread coming in every day. Basically, I am done, just trying to find another job before I walk. Just needed to vent.

I work in a warehouse. We have a large office attached to said warehouse. The bathrooms we have in the warehouse are filthy and often lack soap. The paper towels we get disintegrate in your hands the second you touch them with wet hands. The TP is as bad as you can imagine. I thought the company was cheap—fine, whatever. But then yesterday, I used the office bathroom and discovered they have nice paper towels. They have clean bathrooms. They have good soap and TP. Something about this really really bothers me. It feels like I’m just a peasant, a 2nd class citizen. Given cheap bathroom necessities, while the people in the air conditioned office get more expensive and nicer products to use. I’m going to HR with this. I was just wondering if you all had any advice about how to approach this? How to word it in a…

Could not wait to make this gem of a post. I’m so freaking mad I don’t know what to do. I’m beyond ready to quit my job. I’m a dental assistant. My LO is 6 months old. I’ve been exclusively pumping since she was about a month – maybe a month and a half – old due to a tongue tie that didn’t get clipped all the way, nipple confusion from supplementing pumped milk with a syringe, and a misdiagnosis of thrush. I pump every six hours, four times a day (6am, 12pm, 6pm, 12am). I went back to work when LO was 3 months old and they are well aware I need to pump on my lunch break. There are two doctors at the practice where I work, and while one of them is significantly more laid back than the other, the assistants are always walking on eggshells. Today…

Quick preface: I have an alphabet soup brain. ADHD, CPTSD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, and Major Depressive Disorder. Maintaining a longterm job of any kind is incredibly difficult for me. Right now, I'm going to school full time while working part time for a local dog kennel in hopes of making it through school so I can find a job that doesn't actively make me want to kill myself, while accruing as little debt as possible. Through the wonders of therapy and finding a medication regime that works for me, I've somehow made it a full year without burning out and just entirely crashing. It's honestly an accomplishment for me. I can usually only go 3-6 months working before I get so suicidal I have to quit, so yay me. I know my value isn't actually based on my ability to be a good little worker drone – that's actually something…

After several months of interviews and presentations (don’t get me started) I landed the job. Signed the contract. Resigned from the previous. Yada yada. Today I get email from their onboarding team looking for the usual tax forms etc, but also a link to 4 hours of induction material that must be completed before my first day. Should I invoice them?

Any of you guys deleted Linkedin profile? I havent got a job through it so why do i nee done?
