I’ve just found out that I’m the only person in my office to not get my bonus this year.

Let me start with a little backstory: I work in property maintenance as a manager and was furloughed for most of 2020 while restrictions were keeping people from going to work. About 9 months into covid and a few months before my unemployment ran out I asked my former boss if there might be anything available and he set up an interview with a property I…

LinkedIn post and comment under. As non American, I can’t believe someone is thanking corporation for letting her give birth and have some maternity time. Also, not knowing what to do with your life besides work is one of the most depressing things I ever read.

My food service job expects you to work with a fever and throwing up

i work at a very popular fast food restaurant that only allows 3 call outs a month. (doctor’s note means nothing to them) i’ve been super sick with over a 100 fever, throwing up, diarrhea, along with many other symptoms. they don’t care. i work in the kitchen and handle the food of thousands of customers a day. i was gonna try to go in today even though i’m still miserable but woke up throwing up again. so i decided to call out and was threatened to be fired. oh well. i’m fucking sick of it.
