Antiwork

I got a remote/work from home job offer from them, and they seem pretty legit but my area that I live in is horribly known for scam remote jobs. So I'm just wondering if anyone has heard of them or maybe knows a way to check and see if they're legitimate.

Does anyone here have a job that does tasks that actually contribute nothing tangible? For example, our company has been doing pointless documentation and implementing project management tasks. We are working more on documentation of pointless things, mostly just made up statistics, then the actual job. We are trying to win a Baldrige award, focusing on Six Sigma that is making everyone less productive, and producing documentation that no one is ever going to read.

Supervisors response was to scoff and roll his eyes. Seems like an appropriate response, no? How it works: to get EotM you need 3 customers to independently write a letter explaining why you deserve it to be nominated, then the Civil Service Board votes on who gets it. So some back story: supervisor is a constant thorn in the ass, he constantly belittles, knitpicks, and talks down to his employees. On top of that he also gives out tons of wrong advice, which is why him and I don't get along, as I will always correct the false info so no one else gets in trouble for his blatant ignorance. He also doesn't do 10% of the job other supervisors are required to do, 90% of his day is sitting in his office, door closed, watching YouTube. The real icing on the cake is that he was also nominated for…

I only know our german phrases and which ones are good or which ones are red flags. Do you also have some phrases like that in the USA? I got the following phrases in the offer, remote sounds good but fast paced environment doesn't in my opinion. “The most relevant fact is that it is a remote role with a clear progression path and senior exposure with many opportunities for growth in a fast paced environment”

Hey everyone, I'm 22 and currently working at a small machine shop as an administrative assistant. I've continued to work full time while in school full time (online) and graduated with my associates degree in business management last fall. I'm now working on my bachelors in Supply Chain Management. These past two years have been a struggle to say the least. On a positive note – I've finally landed a job in my field as a Material Planner! It'll be a 12k bump in salary along with a really good benefits package. I'll be going from a small little machine shop of 10 people with no growth opportunity, to a very reputable company that's full of advancement potential. Really excited. With that being said, I've been at my current job for 4 years now. I've put up with quite a bit of verbal abuse from my boss (owner) and other…

Background: supervisor was placed at our company (as a spy?) by the company that pays our wages. We are technically employed by a university but this other company (well call this company A) is also in charge. Last week supervisor broke into our managers office to obtain photos of a coworkers transcript with the intention of getting her fired. Manager was not aware of supervisor entering her office for this information to send to company A behind our managers back. The employee did not consent or have any idea the supervisor was viewing and taking photos on her personal phone of the transcript. Is this punishable by law? We are all very angry and worried that anyone has access to our personal information. Our manager is doing nothing to reprimand but making a passive aggressive email.

I am so burnt out from my job I dont even care at this point. Its not worth trying to save my job for only $20 an hour.

Throwaway account, just in case. I'm at a loss. I worked 90+ hours last week and came back to just as much work this week. I'm a salaried employee in Texas. My boss works days, nights, weekends, literally constantly. I have no life and I'm exhausted. This isn't new, but it's just getting worse. I'm looking for serious ways to talk to him about the situation. I don't want to leave my job, I actually love it. But, I can't sustain this pace. Thoughts?

Seriously, what even is the point anymore? I worked a shit job for a garbage company that treated me like crap for years because I made good money, and have nothing to show for it. Right when I was ready to buy a house, I got priced out of the market. So now I'm going to take the vast majority of my life savings and throw it at my student loans, because frankly the interest rate on those is going to cost me more than I'd gain by investing it. I'm about to start a new job in a couple of months for a company that'll hopefully treat me better, at the cost of about 40% of my income. Meaning that any goals or aspirations I have are going to take even longer, if they'll ever come to fruition, which at this point, is pretty un-fucking-likely. I am so sick…
