Stop giving 2 weeks notice.

Just stop. Stop this whole thinking that you owe you’re employer – you don’t. If you’re unhappy and you’re accepting another job, just quit. Don’t even do it in person. Just call in and quit. Have them mail you your last check. I promise, the company doesn’t care about you. Stop caring about them. (Obviously there are some exceptions but you get the sentiment)

When Do You Just Give Up?

I was to have an interview today for a company that I left. Idk why I thought it’d be a good idea to go back – I hated the co the whole time I worked for them. I guess it was familiarity…? I can’t explain myself or why I even applied. Anyway – interview was supposed to happen today @ 2. Got a call from my child’s school (@ 1:15) that he’s sick, so I had to go get him. Reached out to the recruiter to make her aware. Unbeknownst to me – she’d emailed me previously advising that the interview needed to be rescheduled anyway (the email was in my junk folder where I never look). So it all worked out. (Email #1) When I emailed her to make her aware that my child was sick, I informed her that I could possibly speak with the interviewers today from…

What job would you take?

If you had the option to choose, would you choose… A higher paying job with a company that is soul crushing. -or- A job that pays a few thousand less than the first job, but has incredible benefits.

Boss changed my hours for work over E-mail

So I got an email for my boss saying they were changing my hours per week from 30-35 to 40, and just curious if they can do this? On my job acceptance and duties paper I signed, it's 30-35, do they need me to accept this or anything??

I’ve been cut off of my disability pay because my boyfriend (who I live with) earns over the threshold.

(UK based) Apologies if it’s not appropriate to post here, I’m just so angry and this is the only place I could think of to rant. I get disability pay for mental health reasons. The Department for Work and Pensions themselves decided I am not well enough to work. I moved in with my boyfriend recently and my Universal Credit claim became a joint claim with him. Since he earns over the threshold, they’ve cut me out of my own disability pay. I’m infuriated. I have next to nothing to my name and God forbid something happens to my boyfriend (who is currently paying for everything while I am not well enough to work) I will be homeless. Again. Fuck the system.
