Antiwork

I applied at FedEx Supply chain as an Inventory Control Clerk. I got an email to schedule an interview. The email says that they are having open interviews every Wednesday. My next day off happened to be a Wed. But instead of just showing up for the open interviews I schedule one for Wed. noon. I wake up early, fix myself up, print copies of my resume and head out. Its about an hour drive with traffic. I get there and they have no idea who I am. No interviews were happening that day. You know, the day that was supposed to be open interviews and the day that I scheduled one. They take my name and number and say that someone will call me. No thanks. I'm half tempted to send them an invoice for time and gas wasted (It just went up to about $4 per gallon where…

One that I discovered recently is the old “oh my good. I get so much vacation I could never use it” that inevitably turns into neither should you. All of these companies keep talking about their benefits (if your lucky enough to get them at all) but for a lot of them getting the time off is like pulling teeth!

So long story short I just left my job for a better one. And my old boss is saying I owe him a few thousand dollars within 48 hours. Will I get sued if I don't pay him in 48 hours? Should I pay him at all? I can't really offord it and I just wish he handled it better that trying to screw me last minute. He's under that ussumption because around a half a year back or so I was having banking issues for a couple months while changing banks so he was writing me my paychecks instead of direct deposit. Now he only needed to write my check like 2 or 3 times. But the last time he hadn't given me my money in a couple days. So I assumed he was busy and tried getting in touch with him at the end of the day. I…

My friends also work here and she hates them as well (she’s trying to convince them to break up because one of them is her favorite). I make 8.50 and work 10 hours a week so I genuinely don’t know if this is worth it. I didn’t get proper training (nobody trained me) so she’s mad I’m not doing things right, the thing is I thought I did really good yesterday, I cleaned and took orders and made some orders all by myself for the most part. I work fast food and I’m in high school

I'm not some green fresh out of college guy anymore. With 8+ years in various stages of construction to maintenance of wind turbines I have a decent set if skills. Yet it amazes me the few offers I've had this year are less than what I started for and even less when inflation is considered. Base pay for heavy industries should now be 30 and up. Anyone offering 18 an hour (which did come up) for general heavy industries is just to insulting potential employees.
