If I had a remote job, I'm going to spend as much time as I can either gaming, or web surfing before they fire me. I'm a pretty fast worker so I can nock out a bunch of my work as quick as possible. I don't need to worry about monitoring software because I'll be working on my laptop while playing video games on my desktop, plus I know ways around them. Anyone else going to do this when working remote?
Throwaway because the place I used to work is a relatively small chain that I think could be identified, and myself by extension. This happened a little over a year ago. I worked for a small grocery store chain that specializes in organic foods, similar to Whole Foods. Our store also had a lunch bar, where they’d make meals to order. My shift was in the produce department, which involves a lot of trimming/washing veggies in the back for prep to go out on the floor. The plumbing went out pretty early that morning, which meant no running water (I remind you this is a place where we work with and serve food, during COVID), no working toilets, etc. I left at around 3pm, but the plumbing apparently was not fixed until the next morning. During my shift, I pretty much had two large bins of water to work with…
Here's what I'm hoping to get at. Sometimes Google claims to be the brainchild of its own searches, but you don't always get what you want on there. I'm just specifically interested in not exactly businesses or companies that have already shut down, but ones you think are in such bad conditions whether it's the store or people themselves, that they deserve to no longer exist. It may be also helpful to describe why. Here are the other criteria: If based in America: -Major companies that are basically all over the country do not need to have geographic location -Geographic location is helpful if mainly in one specific part of the country -Smaller companies that are well known in the geographic region or state should be named once first posted on here If based in another country: -Describe which country it's based in and whether or not it is or…

Don't know if general venting is allowed but here it goes. I was hired on to a small financial institution about 3 years ago as their senior accountant. Just before covid hit the CFO notified the CEO and the board that he intended to retire in about a year and a few months. Myself and the CFO actually shared a double office for a matter of months before covid hit, so I made it clear that I would like to fill that position as I have the qualifications on paper holding four college degrees one of which is a bachelor's in finance one is an MBA and another is a masters of management and leadership. The only thing holding me back is a lack of years worth of experience as I had only been a corporate tax accountant after college for around 2 and 1/2 to 3 years. So the…
Recently, the company I work for laid off a lot of employees. I didn’t get laid off, but got a bunch of case files reassigned to me as a result. A few of these case files contain work that my level of employee was not trained on. I asked my manager this morning what I was supposed to do with these files and was told that we are not to work on them since it’s above us. By this afternoon, he changed his guidance. He is now saying that I should try to work on it regardless and that they will provide the proper training tomorrow. I told him that I was not comfortable being responsible for a case file that I had not been trained on yet, but that I would do it tomorrow after the training has been provided. He said that “I’ve given you my direction in…
My own city doing this bs
This week I've learned the hard way that bonuses are only paid if they think you're still working there. Quit my job as I couldn't take it anymore and thought my bonus paid in a weeks time would be fixed in. Now been told that it can be withheld if you resign before it's paid and there is nothing I can do legally (England). Time your resignation folks! Make them pay, not the other way out
My job is supposed to be 9a-6p and I work totally remotely. I’m pretty new to the job so I still need a lot of guidance to direct my work. I take forever to do tasks because it feels like there’s no sense of urgency and I don’t want to be given more work. I’m usually logged in to my work computer 8hrs/day but I really only do a good 2 or 3 hours of work. The rest of the time I’m doing stuff around the house, scrolling on my phone, or watching tv. Sometimes I do school work or play video games. I kind of feel like my job is a joke, but it pays well and it’s laughably easy, so I don’t want to complain. Today I overslept and logged on 1.5hrs late. It feels strange to be so late to my job and literally not have anyone…
