Hey everyone, Just like most people most of my life consisted of waking up before the sun rose and going to work and watching the sunrise from my office window. Then it all clicked that I'm miserable. Everyone around me being my co workers, friends, hell even my bosses would come to for their party favors so I gladly took the role. I quit my luxurious tech job to go back to the dark arts of slanging. Just for a heads up I've made quite a sum off bitcoin and ripple. So money isn't really a worthy. Does this count as anti work? Anyways bye everyone
Crazy Not Lazy
Career Flipping
I don't know which is more disturbing: Being jobless or antiwork with a minimum wage job history OR “Downgrading” from office, trade, specialized/expert/professional to a minimum wage job “for a change”. If that makes sense, talk about it.

Did that shit for a week. 40 hours. Ended up deciding the job wasn't for me and quitting. I live in California, where unpaid training is illegal afaik. I was supposed to get paid on February 25th. I noticed something was up a couple weeks ago when I finished making my February payments and noticed I had like $550ish less than I expected to. Figured I'd give it a little time and see if they were planning on mailing a paper check. It is March 16th and I have still not seen a cent. I just moved cross-country in January and am extremely strapped for cash. Because of this shit I'm gonna be short on my car payment this month and have to beg my friends and relatives for money. Yay. At least I got my rent and insurance payments done. Anybody know if this was legal in the state…
How about this for the wfh issue
Introduce a law that requires employees to be compensated for commute Then companies may be more incentivized to allow people who can and want to wfh to do it, and those of us wasting our time to get to work get compensated for it finally. Two birds with one stone? (I work in a hospital and cannot wfh so I don’t have a stake in that one but I would sure like my 1.5 hours daily commute to be on the clock or compensated in some way, seems like this could work for everyone)
Union Bargaining…
We unionized at work and I’m on the bargaining committee. Management wants us to bargain during work, unpaid, and we’d have to use our PTO if we want to be paid. Fuck that nonsense, the very idea really pissed me off. To me this is clearly a backhanded attempt at punishment, but that can’t really be proven. So we are being adamant then that bargaining should take place after hours/weekends then. Not much else to say, just had to vent/complain. A big part of why it pissed me off is because when we initially offered bargaining, paid, on work time, they acted as if they were fine with it. Now they’re posturing against it.
