Antiwork

Obviously. Got baited in by being told by the recruiter that they would pay off my student loans (even tho he knew I wouldn't be in long enough to recieve that benefit.) Signed a six year contract w air force. Regretted it ever since and been in for almost 4 years. Going in everyday with my only motivation being to “make it to the end of my contract” has been hell. The straw that broke the camels back for me was how when I couldn't fucking do it anymore and got myself in trouble they put me on basically 21 days of unpaid slave labor. Didn't think that they acrually did that, or that anyone with a soul would actually use that type of punishment. Cruel, unusual, and entirely unnecessary.

I was making $15 an hour as a warehouse “manager”. Meaning I legit run a whole warehouse single-handedly, but don’t actually get paid what a warehouse manager should be paid. After hounding my boss for months he finally manages to get me an additional 90¢ per hour, but could only do it after giving me a “yearly” performance review. The guy didn’t have a single good thing to say about me, yet I’m constantly taking on extra work asked of me, coming in on my days off, and staying long past my shift. Never even came in late, not once. The review was all about “you should work on this, and work on that, and you could really improve in this area.” Here I was thinking this was a chance to actually renegotiate my pay, and maybe get bumped up to something like over $20 an hour. Nope. My boss…
