Everyone stop working in Michigan immediately! From the article: In MI, if you die at work, and your boss is negligent, you have no legal rights to sue them.

How to ask for a Raise first before leaving for another job

I read that Friday is the best time from 10am-3pm BUT my bosses were stressed due to end month crap…and my other boss's mom is sick…the vibe has been off at the office. Still not my problem. I am overqualified and they make me do things that doesn't fall under my title and not in my job description. We have no paid lunch as other companies and they want us to stay and eat our lunch at the office. I have a second interview on Thursday for a 13k raise plus 1 hour paid lunch, Hybrid wfh as needed, and closer distance to my house. The only thing nice about the current company is that they are easy going….they have never fired an employee. I saw many employees quitting and then coming back to work from them because they are easy going people and a chill job with zero stress…

Always ask for specifics

Management from my old workplace always have standups and they had one where he expresses how much he appreciates us and that if this is not the job for us is to go or take them as they are. When I got to it, how much does he appreciates us? If we are let go or fired will this asshole help us out with connections so we can find a new job or will he help us apply until we find one? Does he only appreciates that we are working extra hard just to fill his pockets and if we get sick or hurt that he will be there to nurse us back to health? I can tell you that this asshole has done Jack shit other than hire us, inform us what he wants us to do but, hasn't done anything to show respect for his workers and himself…

A recruiter/ job posting should list a compensation range at the very least.

Don’t give me this “competitive compensation” bs. It’s not worth the time. You tell me the range and I’ll tell you if it’s competitive. Not taking interviews where compensation is intentionally vague.

Advice on demanding higher pay?

If you check my previous posts you'll know that I get paid a measly $15 an hour to deal with being shit on and occasionally assaulted. It's pretty obvious to everyone that works there pay needs to increase, and it already has recently. It went from a pitiful $13 an hour to a slightly less pitiful $15 an hour, but that isn't enough, as evidenced by the lack of staffing at said work place. I've only been here a few weeks and I'm done, $15 an hour isn't enough for all the shit we have to deal with. So I've decided I'm gonna try to force some change before I leave. The idea I have is this, give admin an ultimatum: give everyone there $20 an hour or I walk. I mean, I can literally go make tacos for $13.50 an hour and the worst that happens is a disgruntled…
