What if the problem with depression and anxiety is the fact that we work just as hard as our parents and grandparents without getting anywhere?

this sub has given me courage

this sub has given me the courage to bet on myself. at the end of the day, i am a line cook, but a damn good one. i do what is asked of me and what i am told. i have been happily cooking your 26$ filets and your expensive seafood for 14$ an hour for quite some time. a month ago, i asked for my evaluation at my current job. i have been told “next week” for four weeks now. tomorrow i plan on telling my boss either the evaluation and at least a 2$ raise happens or i will walk on the spot. i will happily support/join this movement and will bet on myself and yall and what we have going here. thank you all for giving me the thoughts and power to do this.

Is irregular scheduling worth the mental exhaustion?

Okay so this isn’t anti-work but just curious on everyone’s thoughts as the sub has decent diversity in jobs. I worked at a bio processing plant and the scheduling is 7pm-7am rotating mon/tues wed/thurs fri/sat/sun on and off. The pay is quite good there, but I have a lot of trouble sleeping and and it’s mentally exhausting working those hours especially on a night shift. Do you guys think it’s worth good pay? It is the most i can get right now, without having to work 2-3 years at a another company to match the pay. the job itself is quite boring as i sit at a computer most of the time, however i also enjoy the coworkers there, and have a decent amount of free time to chill on my phone and relax a little. I have an opportunity to go back and I’m not sure if i should…

Your Greedy Boss probably got their PPL Forgiven

The SBA’s PPL (Paycheck protection loan) that you’re boss got when businesses were closed or harmed due to Covid? They were supposed to use that to be able to pay you. They probably had it forgiven (not that hard), meaning they don’t have to pay it back. Did they “protect your paycheck” as in hire you back and pay you properly as they were required to do with that money they were given that they now do not have to pay back?
