Antiwork

I’m living in France and actually with no job, while I looked at the work lists on Pole Emploi (an institution that helps you find a job and give you money while you’re searching) I saw things that I never saw a few years ago. Let me list some things : – The usuals : we’re a family, we look for passionate people not money grabber etc… the ones you basically see on this sub or you might know irl. But then there is something in France that we make fun of, it’s franglish. Basically it’s the way of speaking both french and English at the same time or using some English words in your french sentence. The satire we usually do became true. Slashing, numeric nomad, digital office or even FLEX OFFICE, and many terms that finish with -ing at the end. I see franglish everywhere on the lists.…

I truly do appreciate you guys. Ill update it when i do quit :)! Sorry for the format, I am on a phone. Your guys’ favorite thing to hear. I recently started work at a pizza place in Washington state. I should’ve known my interview was a red flag when the entire time my manager talked about his medical issues. A delivery driver ended up quitting a few weeks after I started because of the verbal degradation our manager was giving him. ‘This boy went to college but…

I work at an educational establishment. There are exams going on and I've over heard things that would be considered cheating. My manager gets results and his bosses are happy with the results, but these seem to be contributed to the expectation that nobody will fail, even poor students. I'm due to invigilate an exam with another teacher from the department and overheard the manager say to a group of students that he will get them a copy of the exam paper a hour before the exam. I due to collect the papers from a certain staff member at a set time. My manager has contacted them for me to collect files early so that we can test set up on the PCs.
