What do you think?

So I work for a cash in transit company as a armed guard/messenger – delivery boy for a bank like brinks. We have a contractual obligation to deliver money (holdovers) to other companies that operate in the same manner. To set the scenario, we were closed this past Thursday and Friday due to the snow storm we had so holdovers for those two days were backed up. I came in this past Monday to start my shift and was checking out my bags of money for the route and was told I’m delivering the holdovers to “company B;” which was the holdovers they were supposed to come to us to pick up, as well as the ones that were to be delivered to them for those days as well as Monday. When I got to Company B they refused the liability (money) that was supposed to be picked up from…

Small Business Owner Asking for advice.

I own a small business with just me as the only employee. In December of last year is when I started it. We are a IT Support and Cybersecurity consultant company in a small town. I have the work experience in the IT field and the degrees in Cybersecurity from an accredited university. My first client had a couple big jobs for me to do. They own 3 companies and I did work for 4 of their stores. They made me an offer that sounded wonderful. The offer was that they would pay me 800 a week, from their main company, and go into a partnership with me in my business. The partnership would be split between us 3 so almost 33% each. While I made the 800 a week, we will work on my business and get more business so we can share the profits. This sounded great to…

Has anyone here been with Revature? How is it?

Im looking for jobs and the only damn job around me that makes since is Revature. They are some kind of “sign a contract and we will pay you and teach you to code for businesses and be a professional” kind of business. I'm looking for anything that can help me grow and this feels like it but I need information before I sign a contract. So like the titles says, had anyone worked for these guys before and gotten anything valuable out of them? They offer paid time off, 401k, health vision and life insurance, relocation assistance and paid training.

Raise pay or introduce a smaller UBI?

Which do you think would be more beneficial? The UBI would be more along the lines of Andrew Yangs idea of enough to help, but not enough to live off. I think UBI as that wouldn’t have the massive ripple effect that forcing companies that potentially can’t afford to raise rates without raising prices or going under (mostly small businesses).

Health problems working in the office

I could swear working past 5 years in office I developed back problems and eye problems (I even started wearing glasses). Watched office space the other day and figured I might need to reconsider my “career” of choice.

I am working for a big american oil company in Brazil, and usually hear Americans complaining about how they overwork and are mistreated, but I felt quite the opposite. They treat me like a human being, pay vacation, give benefits, good salary, etc. What different in the US?
