Antiwork

I have the opportunity now to do this, and I have basically no other opportunities in life. My hope is to live in total seclusion serving one other person for as long as I can with no income.

My wife worked at a nursing home and when her nursing school schedule didn’t add up she put her 4 weeks notice and was told she could t use her PTO because she was resigning VIA HR Rep. She was then told she would be receiving a final PTO payout in 3 weeks. Well she was found a job within the same company as a weekend aide except this job was part time at a different nursing home. She was just Informed that because she transitioned from full time to part time that all her PTO she had accumulated was placed in a “PTO Bank” and she won’t be getting paid any of it. Can jobs do this?

So, I'm totally pro most of what I see here. So, grain of salt. Many, many years ago I worked at a company, small, owner was mostly in the office. Electronic retail(early days cell phones for the common man). I was always considerate of work realities. There are weekend and holidays that clearly were important. No complaints. I go to the owner and let him know “I'm taking days X thru Z off” (basically a week plus weekends on either side). Owner responds with “don't you mean you are asking me?”. My response was, “with all do respect, I'm telling you”. He was like that doesn't seem right. My response was, ” i know what's important to the business, and i took that in consideration, but these are the days I'm taking off. No I'm not asking, I'm notifying you.”. He wanted to know know “and what?” And i was…

It's been a rough month or two at work, with the store manager out for surgery and the assistant manager running stuff. I've been struggling with my health, in edition to scheduling being just a nightmare to deal with if one wants to have a life. What's really upsetting though is me and the other girl that are stuck working overtime while the assistant manager runs off, can't do anything I'm struggling to to schedule appointments j go and she is with spending time with her kids. The assistant manager has taken how many days off while we're struggling

Posting on my throw away because I know the company checks Reddit. When I started in my dept 5+ years ago, the majority had been there for almost a decade, if not longer. Due to some horrible changes in management, I became the senior person this past January. The third most senior is the youngest in the dept but the way projects got assigned he does the most work (the project didn’t used to be that bad, but it’s harder the more new people there are). By talking about pay with each other, we learned he’s the least paid out of the entire dept, including those who have been there a couple months with no experience while he has a bachelors and has been with the company for seven years. So leading up to me taking senior role, every single senior person has brought up how unfair it is, and…

All I see now is liberal capitalists whining about their shit boss and dreaming of being a wage slave in Europe. Is this sub still about abolishing wage slavery or am I too far left even for antiwork now?

I am currently looking for a new teaching position and I have had three interviews with local districts in the last month. Two of the three made me offers almost instantly. Yesterday I received an “offer” from the last district that absolutely floored me. The school called me and said that they absolutely loved me, expressed that I would be a perfect fit for the position and all of the things one would expect from a good interview… then said that they were not sure that they actually had the opening anymore and needed time to figure it. They did not say how much time they would need, but did have the gall to ask me to reject other offers so they could have a chance to get it straightened out. These lunatics actually asked me to pass on other offers from other schools while they got their act together.…
