Antiwork

Hi! I'm looking for some advice. This is my first job since the pandemic hit. Due to health issues and other concerns I didn't work for about a year and a half. I got a decent 8-5 office job back in January. It's a friendly environment, the pay is pretty average for this sort of job, they pay for health benefits, offer sick time and pto, along with holidays off. There's a high turn over rate and the department I work in is extremely stressful. On paper the job seems pretty great, but because of external circumstances I want to go part time. Last month I spoke with my manager and our HR team to see if a part time position was possible. They said it isn't and would let me know if something comes up. Basically “if you go part time we need to hire another person, so we…

I need some advice… I work at a collision Autobody shop and my boss is a 76 year old guy who is on meth. I don't care what he does … it's none of my business… but when he abuses staff and is extremely aggressive towards customers as well, what can I do?

My coworker had a family emergency come up and he asked the boss permission to leave. The boss agree and he left at the beginning of his shift the day before the stat holiday. He came back for his regularly scheduled shift the day after he found out that they weren't going to pay him.

The boss's response?” You have too much time on your hands if you can look things up online!” But coworker stated he had to pay it and as much as the boss didn't want to , he had to, and…

I got a PART time job as a server to fill my free time and they said they’d like me to host for a few weeks to get the hang of tables and speed of restaurant. They continued to schedule me as a host and food runner FULL TIME after my 3 weeks of hosting. I began getting frustrated and they sensed that I was going to quit and got nervous and began training me ONCE a week to serve (takes 4 training shifts). I told them I CANNOT afford to spend my time hosting, and I CANNOT work more than 3 days a week due to my other job. Welp the news schedule came out and they have me on five days, 3 serving, 2 food running and hosting. I’m SO frustrated and I’ve talked to my boss 2-3 times in 6 weeks and this job is already a…
