Antiwork

Hello r/antiworkers, I'm part time employed in the retail business and am looking to move on to greener pastures. Our store went under new management and since then, I've been getting 'performance based' writeups despite doing nothing but good work for almost a year prior to our new store manager. I got written up a couple of days ago for calling in for a shift that no one was available to cover. As in, it was my responsibility to work the shift if I couldn't find someone to take it for me. (I don't normally call in, I had to go to the hospital the night before.) I know it sounds like a stupid question but should I voluntarily put in my notice so I can work my piece and leave or would it benefit me more to get fired so I could claim some sort of financial compensation if…

Sorry if this is a bit all over the place. I tried to keep as short as possible but I'm angry. i work in a university in the uk and the over the last 2 years a bonus scheme has been reintroduced. during the first lockdown last year my team were off site (still wfh) for a couple of months. after that we were on site the whole time, through lockdowns and everything else. we were needed, not essential! or key! cant say that. we might be worth something then. i asked for our team to be put forward for the scheme multiple times and i was told by the manager that he is putting the document together. only to find out he was told by the head of service to not submit the claim as we basically did nothing beyond what we was meant to for our job. skip…

Company is trying to make us sign a handbook that requires us to give 4 weeks notice before leaving the company (based in the US). Can they legally reinforce it if I sign the handbook?

He threatened “disciplinary action” if my numbers in the warehouse don’t pick up. In the past they have tried to resolve this by watching me pick and giving suggestions to bring my numbers up on a couple of occasions. Admittedly, I don’t meet their standard for cases per hour because work is uninspiring to me and I feel like I won’t get much out of putting more work in. Is my boss justified?

Have any of you heard anything about a may strike? One that is happening across America? Thank you!

Literally had a 10 minute interview for an assistant manager job for a smaller retail store. Only asked what I did in my free time, what knowledge I had about the products, which is very little, and hourly wage. Thinking I probably should have said higher amount. No questions about customer service issues or employee issues. Nothing about past supervisor or manager experience. Left the store with a feeling of not wanting to work there.

So my baby is now 3 months old and I have the opportunity to go back to one of two old jobs. I have to work rn, not an option to stay home Job A: worked at a different location for almost four years. Starting pay is 18.75/hour, but I should get my old pay of 19.50 back, plus cheap benefits. Regular raises based on hours worked. I didn't really enjoy the job, but I know it well. It's in cold storage, work provides the gear, but it's a constant 35 degrees F in there. Company is very large and known for treating their employees fairly, so much so that only one location ever has opted to unionize. 32 to 34 hours per week, still qualify for benefits, but schedule is set. 4:30 am to 3pm (hours will be in there somewhere) Sunday through Friday. Absolutely no phones or music…
