Put my two weeks in was instantly fired.

I put my two weeks in and they fired me on the spot. I worked(well used to work) at a big retail corporation. I found a better job and when I did the nice thing of putting my two weeks in they said to turn in all my work things and leave. Just go to show, don’t even bother to put in two weeks, they will just treat you life trash one last time.

why don’t people snitch on companies for bad business practice? I see so many horror stories but no company names to warn other people.

I’m not doing it. I won’t work more hours to have less. I’m going to go hiking all summer instead.

I've lived in this city most of my adult life (socal). I'm losing my current housing and I started to look for apartments. I haven't been able to get consistent full time work that pays more than $15/hr for two years now. To afford living alone I'd need to work a minimum of 50 hours a week. If one of my gigs falls short I'll have to make it up the next week. NO. I refuse to give most of my financial cushion I've saved over to some landlord in the form of a deposit. I'll never see that money again. I could upgrade my hiking kit and my car with that amount. I did the math. I save more money working 1 job part time remotely being a nomad than working 3 gigs to pay for a 200-400 square foot studio that I'll barely be able to spend any…

If you quit your job because it sucks and you don’t need their reference, make sure you leave them a Google Maps Review!

No, seriously, leave them a Google Maps review – be honest, don't curse, and don't name names, and leave that review. GlassDoor monitors and manually approves all workplace reviews, but Google Maps is a little loose, and if customers see how bad the work environment is, they may think twice about shopping there. Have fun!

I just tanked my employer today.

So… a bit of a backstory… this was just a side hustle. A little something make money for fun stuff on the side. I was basically a Production Coordinator/Line Producer/Producer's Assistant for a TV Show. They are people with too much money and no idea what they are doing. I found out they were commissioning me to write scripts, but also commissioning someone else to write scripts. Whichever one they liked more they would actually pay for the work. I also got chewed out today for simply asking a question… I simply stood up, said “I don't need this. I don't need you” and walked out. They also were storing all their financial information/production documents/scripts/etc on my Google Drive. I removed all permissions. I was also logged into all their email accounts. I changed passwords, and signed out. They have a two week shoot coming up, lets see how it…
