Work sucks lots of crypto does the same bullshit…..I want to be free

Not affiliated with the coin at all. I have years of marketing experience. And investing experience I have put tons of money in robot pizza company and pharmaceuticals. I am new to the crypto world but fuck it's the way of the future. My first buy was Bitcoin than Eitherium than Shiba then BRISE But honestly you need to get in early to make a fortune. The rewards for holding I'd you sitting there with your fingers crossed hoping the price goes up. Or out your $5000 worth of coin on lockdown for 6 months to make a whopping $6 interest (I'm talking to you BRISE) The developers tax the coin say they are burning give you Penny's while they make millions and millions and giving the bare minimum back to the community. Now I am interested in a new project that seems legit (if they can pull of a…

Any advice on taking time off work for stress (UK)

More and more people at my work are off sick and the work load is falling onto me and I just can't take it anymore. It's just bringing me down and feel they don't care how it's affecting me mentally. I've informed my manager that I am taking time off work cus of stress. Is there any law/procedures I need to know to keep myself covered while off? Thanks in advance.

My employer has paid ~$14/hour while a STEM bachelor’s degree, significantly increased my responsibilities and workload by not hiring a replacement when my supervisor left, repeatedly denied my requests for a raise, and is currently falsifying hours to avoid paying me overtime. Advice?

I took a full-time position in a job before starting graduate school. It only paid $14/hour, but I needed a job and it would genuinely be a good experience for me to learn in my field. After about 2 months of working there, my direct supervisor quit. I was expected to take on her responsibilities while they found new hires, which I agreed to. Unfortunately, it took ~3months for them to hire people, which means I did the job of 3 people entirely myself. (Of course, they never offered me a raise.) I worked a small amount of overtime (literally about 15 hours total over those 3 months) due to the fact that we were so understaffed, but my manager got upset with me over it. My manager informed me that they would be reducing my hours to 40 in those weeks and letting me take off that same amount…

Don’t understand why my boss doesn’t offer us a better schedule/pay

We work 6 days a week £9.50 an hour in a small but very busy shop and post office. 3 of us run the place and then there's my boss and his family. I've seen his wageslip once on accident it said he gets £1000 a week but I think he probably gets more. We get £330 a week for 6 days but my boss only have to work 2-4 hours a day sometimes less. His staff are constantly leaving though and like the most recent a new starter was completely honest with him why hes quitting. He said he feels like he doesnt have a life with 6 days a week, I told my boss this a year ago when I left but I ended up coming back because my new job at Amazon was only a 6 month contract and i've gotta keep the money flowing to run…

short period notice of shift work should be paid at a higher rate

Usually if you want to book a hotel or book a black cab or taxi immediately you pay more for the immediacy. Or if you want food delivery such as pizza. This market effect should apply to labour too. If you want me in less than 24 hours and you want work exclusivity, then this should cost more. If you want the flexibility of not giving me steady hours, the price of that should be higher.

$15 an hour is what we were pushing for like 6 years ago LOL $28 an hour is what we need now minimum with this clusterfuck economy rn.

$15 an hour minimum wage is scraping by. Less than that is slavery at this point. We need to start pushing for this shit ASAP!
