Antiwork

My mothers aunt is on her deathbed, so my mum has been driving over to her about twice, sometimes even three times a week to be there for her when she passes. Because of this situation I learned that we have something called “relative support” in my country. Basically you are allowed to take time of work if a person close to you is seriously ill or dying and you get payed 80% of your salary, just like you would if you were home sick. I know this isn't usually what's posted here but I feel like we need some positive news every once in a while. Capitalism is still alive and well here but I was happily surprised to learn about this. PS. I live in Sweden.

Title says it all. It's for a video production job that I'm overqualified for. He was incredibly unprepared for me to come in. Now he wants to “test” my skills. So I'm waiting for him to set up a computer for me. Opening Photoshop or Premiere shouldn't take him the 15-20 minutes he's having me wait. I think I'm just going to walk out. Edit: Walked out. Didn't tell anyone. It's not worth my time.

I started an administrative position with a family owned monument company 2 weeks ago. The pay was ok but had no benefits. The Interview process was the owner’s son calling me and asking me when I could start, I never even got to come down and see where I would be working. I found out how cramped and uncomfortable the layout was with 6 people all on top of one another in the first story of a home. No break room, no kitchen, just a shared small bathroom that was always gross. I found out on my first day as well that customers come into the already cramped office to go over paperwork. This was something that bothered me from the get go. The person who is training me has her last day on Friday and she wasn’t in today. I got to see first hand what the workload was…

I'm not very good at this I'm so sorry about the poor format. My fiance works for the banking industry and has worked for the same company for nearly 15 years. Every year she's made less and less money as they've not given a cost of living increase in over 8 years. Finally this year she decided to look for work elsewhere and found a job that offered her over $10000 more a year. She put in her 2 weeks notice and quit. Fast forward another 2 weeks and she just got a letter today from the company she worked for for 15 years demanding a $1019 reimbursement cement for a retention bonus that she received nearly 15 years ago.

Step one: Tell the masses their god wants them to procreate. Outlaw abortion and say it’s murder. Step two: Force their kids to miserably work 9-5 for decades. Step three: Make more billions. Billionaires simply need more meat for the meat grinder. I’m going to start working on my tinfoil hat as soon as I get home.
