Antiwork

Q – if i plan on leaving early April, and i have already used up most of my full year’s worth of PTO (3wks), what happens? Do i have to pay them back pro-rated wage for the extra PTO that i took? FYIY, fortune 100 company, exempt employee. I took 2+ wks time off for kids winter and spring break and PTO. I only get 3 wks for the whole yr.

Okay so my employer is refusing to give me a copy of my personal record. I think what I need to do is file for a deposition subpoena, then have a sheriff serve it, mail it, or serve it directly. In case I need to mention specifics I believe I need to request: -The application -References, notes, evaluations -drug tests and results (i never took any though) -warnings and disciplinary actions -character summaries -guest and employee feedback/reports -signed documentation from orientation, the hiring process, and throughout employment -the receipt for 125$ that they removed from my first paycheck to pay for the position required state-issued license; for tax purposes. Does this seem like everything necessary for filing a case against my employer? Is there a phrase i could add to act as a “catch all” for missed documents? Any thoughts about this: During my interview, the interviewer did not actually…

It's really hard not to throw them all under the bus when it seems like literally 99% of them are bad. I was abused at every single one of my workplaces, and I constantly see other employees getting abused at theirs. Why are these people so morally reprehensible?

I’m 22 and just opened my on mechanic shop because two mechanic jobs ago I left because a coe worker bought the business and he was generally a mean ass hole and I didn’t want to work FOR him. (Was a good call he’s still an ass when I text him for advice) then I took another mechanic job absolutely loved my coe workes and the pay even had a gas company gas card for my personal vehicle but then they moved me to a smaller shop at there main office I told the Hr lady I last my phone and I laugh when I’m nervous so I was laughing my ass off she took it as a sign of disrespect tried to get me to sign a insubordination paper because I laughed at her so I told her my tool box has wheels and I quit then I was…

Honestly, wtf is up with that? I work at a facility that does substance testing and their policy is that the only way you can leave early is if you have fever of 102 or higher. I've got a fever of 100 and they said that the clients come first (hell they'll be sent in even with a damn stomach bug) and I have to stay. I've been sneezing, coughing, having shortness of breath and all that fun stuff and they deem that okay to stay. Yet anytime the supervisors get a small cold w/o a fever, they can call off or leave early to go home. I've been wearing a mask all day to “protect the rest of the staff. If I didn't need the paycheck that bad I would've told them my health is more important than those who can test any other day of the week.

For those of us who’ve made it and got a job they enjoy, how’d you do it? How can we find a job we enjoy?
