CNBC: How much job-hopping is too much? Here's what hiring managers say. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/03/30/great-resignation-what-hiring-managers-think-of-job-hopping.html
Hi everyone! I just recently started working for a new company that has been operational for a small amount of time too. So I signed my contract and was hired and noticed that the person hiring me was hiring me for another company of theirs but I thought whatever. Anyway, I’ve only started last week and they are meant to pay today. I check my balance and nothing no pay. Monday I had finally chased my boss down and given him the required paperwork and account details and he sort of did stuff on the computer in front of me so I assumed he had set me up for payroll. This morning when I wake up, I haven’t been paid and the boss is asking me to work from 10/6 instead of 9/5 so he can train me. I refused stating childcare etc and I won’t be doing anyone favours…
Two weeks ago I put in my notice of resignation to my employer. The following day I received the results of my bonus payouts and my raise. On this day I was paid a spot bonus of $2500 for exemplary performance during 2021. I have a letter documenting this. Today I received my normal bonus that was metric based deposited into my account. When I looked at my paystub it seemed off. I then noticed that they deducted the $2500 spot bonus from my pay that they gave me last pay period-essentially taking it back. I am not sure if this even legal (I'll be checking). Friday was to be my last day but I am about to go into work and pack all my shit up and leave before my boss gets there. I was thinking about how I could get some retribution before I left (legally of course)…
So this is basically just me venting to the sub because I feel like most people in my life don't really understand. To start off, I know I'm in a relatively good position, as I live in a country with mostly free healthcare and better accomodations for disabled people than most. Still sucks, though. I was a ~'gIfTeD cHiLd'~ and have a better education than anyone in my family, but we were fucking poor and disfunctional and could never afford stuff like tutoring, extracurriculars or even goddamn school lunches. I dropped out of Uni because I kept having panic attacks because of the money problems. Every time I started building something for myself I ended up in the mental hospital and then back at square one. It got so far that some pencil pusher from the government decided 'MJ can't work 4 hours a day, so…fuck them I guess' and…
Who the fuck remembers previous coworkers' details to use as references who aren't supervisors?
First post about my situation here. The short version: I was hired in July making $15, spontaneously raised to $16 three months later, then found out in November that my team was hiring three new employees at $17 an hour for the same role with no experience. After a phenomenal performance review, I was told to expect fifteen cents extra, but my “exceptional effort” garnered me a whole thirty cent raise. This rant's a long one, y'all. It’s been two and half months of making $16.30while constantly fixing my new coworkers’ mistakes. I’m talking HUGE mistakes: white label breaches, sending the wrong information to clients, deliberately not notating mistakes to cover them up, copying and pasting account details from four months prior that had already been done, etc. We have clients calling in angry all the time. We gave them detailed instructions for every task we do at work, I…
companies asking about my parents income
I've had two companies I applied to today (capital- customer service representative position & walmart- front end associate position) ask me if my parents have been on food stamps in the past 10 years. What's up with this and what does my parents income have to do with a job application? Personally, I think this should be illegal as it's really none of their business. I'm just tired and beaten down by this society and this environment.
