It looks like the worlds busted. Why don’t we the many people who inhabit it this planet band together and fix the problem?

Remember if you’re going to work basic wage jobs.

Never rely on one. Always have side chicks who are dtf. There's nothing immoral about cheating on your job. Always have the leverage to walk away regardless of money and know any advancement in the corporate structure comes with implicit demands for compliance. Be replaceable because you are. ACAB. Fuck landlords. Hail Satan.

Quit after 2 years of overwork!

TLDR: wanted to share how free I feel after my last day at a job that I was at for 2 years that just kept getting worse. This was a white collar desk / computer job with a great salary when I joined. When I joined it was on a team of ~10 folks that all shared responsibilities to execute different customer projects. Over the last 2 years, 5 of them quit (citing burnout and company not staffing the team to succeed since we were basically asked to do the job of a 25 person team) 3 of them moved to other groups that were focused on “higher priority” efforts That left only 2 of us carrying the load of 10 for about the last 6 months.

Boss wants me to travel for work and is cutting off unemployment.

I work a seasonal job and have been laid off since late November. All of our work is in the local area and we never have been required to travel overnight. My boss has secured some work that is out of town and will require weeks and overnight accommodation. Now, I have no problem going out of town for a day or two or even a week, but I really don’t want to be away from my wife and kids that long. Travel work was never in my job description nor did I have to agree to it as a condition of my employment. I explained that I’m not comfortable being away from my kids and don’t want my wife to be left to take care of a preschooler and 1st grader alone for weeks on end. He informed me that he’s not going to authorize unemployment when he has…

Rocket mortgage

Listening to execs talking about gaining market share during the all comp y meeting currently. Yet my paycheck is still the same and there’s no talk about how this will benefit team members. The whole FOC watching BM and BW letting us know how they continue to steal from us
