Our politicians just fucked us again

https://www.politico.com/news/2022/03/30/david-weil-wage-hour-nom-senate-00021860 The vote to confirm David Weil as head of the Labor Department's Wage and Hour division just failed thanks to the entirety of the GOP and 3 democrat senators. So I actually work as a researcher at the school David is the dean of. The entire schtick of this guy is to stop major employers/corporations from committing wage theft by abusing their employees with shady overtime rules. This is fucking disgusting and I feel sick. Not sure if this was posted already but wanted to let everyone know.

My entire team walked out on my last day.

I am a production manager with 4 direct reports and roughly 70 indirect reports. I have always had a good relationship with my team and have tried to treat people fairly and with respect. I've always tried to go to bat for them when it came to corporate issues and policies and considered myself as a conduit between corporate and workers and vice-versa. Two weeks ago I received a $2500 bonus for my performance last year. The day prior to receiving this I gave my 2 week notice of resignation effective 4/1/2022. Today was my next paycheck and I observed that they deducted my bonus from this check. I decided that I was going to write an email to HR and my Boss. Here is that email. Hello, I noticed that the spot bonus given to me in the amount of $2500 in my pay period ending 3/12/2022 was deducted…
