Antiwork

Yep, thats right. Nice and short. I do carpet cleaning for an unnamed national company in my country, and had an email recently because I was completing my jobs too fast. In the meeting I asked my boss if I had any bad comments from customers that I did a bad job? Nope, no complaints. Did a customer state they thought it was too quick? Nope So I said, I straight up don't see any issue. They countered that customers may have an issue being charged 500 dollars for me to be there for an hour and A half. After alot of back and forth, I just put to them that it's not really my issue that they charge so much for carpet cleaning, and also pointed out the multiple times travel was not implemented in our job runs, meaning my times during those days are required to complete the…

We are in the UK, he works 12 hour hard grafting physical labour shifts. They confirmed to him they’ll be contributing to his pension going forward but not back paying. They also didn’t “notice” they weren’t paying his pension, it was an employee that bought it to their attention. He won’t say anything and he doesn’t want me to. How can I secure his pension is back paid?

It feels like we have reached a crisis level. I don't even understand why this needs to be a partisan issue. Whether you are a far left socialist or a working class conservatives, I think the idea that anyone working 40 hours a week at any job who can barely afford to live is just not sustainable. The majority of working class Americans can't afford to buy homes, start families and are drowning in debt that they can never get out of. Anyone who sacrifices their time and enters the work force should be able to eat and live at a relatively comfortable level. No one should have to make a decision between getting a cup of coffee and paying rent. We need to stop shaming and scapegoating people for their choice of occupation. Not everyone can or wants to be a doctor. When you go through a drive through…

My job is a total nightmare. Most of the people there (management & staff alike) are garbage — racist, sexist, abusive, ignorant, etc. I’ve met the most heinous and repugnant people in my life at this job. All the great things about my job are provided by the organization at large and not my specific department, which has become all but intolerable (increasingly so due to pandemic related staffing shortages). It’s almost impossible to switch departments due to people never leaving (even the low rungs are cushy fat cat jobs). Any pro tips on how I can survive these last 3 years of misery?

This happened a couple of years ago and I have since moved on to better things. I used to work for a convenience store/gas station. We had 1 uniform shirt supplied to us free of charge but had to purchase additional shirts if we wanted extras. I made due with the one shirt since I only worked part-time. A few months after I started, the owner decides to get us T-shirts that we could wear instead of the official uniform shirt but we had to pay for the new shirts. We were charged $15-$18 for each shirt depending on the size we wanted. Just 2 weeks after getting the shirts that we ordered, the owner decided to sell the overstock that he had to the public. The cost for the public to purchase these shirts was $10.99. We were never offered a refund of the difference or any discount before…

I'm a male 30s So I worked for a company where a male technician came up behind me reaching between my legs trying to grab me . I turned around wtf and he groped my dick and smiled . Told him Im not into guys. But the harassment continued with remarks about my ass and would come up and sniff me. So I reported it to my supervisor who let my boss know. I was assigned 3000 more cold calls and harassed by that boss and my supervisor for the next 6 months. Which I ultimately quit from because my mental health degraded. I suffer post traumatic syndrome from it. I couldn't destroy him because I take care of a sick parent with cancer and couldn't afford to leave . They started writing me up for crazy stupid shit . The 2nd write up they used me being out waiting…

I work at a tech company and have been working remotely about 25 hours a week (should be 40 on paper but fuck them) for 2 years and making money for the big man. Recently they required us to go back to office and have a “hybrid” work and remote set up. I hate driving to work, dealing with the traffic, dealing with people, and losing the perks of working at home so I demanded to have my base salary doubled (base is 130k, but considering how much money we make them this isnt a big deal) and that they expense my gas and reimburse car payments. They refused and so I quit on the spot, im not settling for this (benefits of being at an will employee, I can drop everything im doing and quit anytime, just like how they can fire me at any time too). Considering how…
