Mental Disorder bias

Today I was told by my supervisor that despite having several mental disorders, and side effects of the medications for it, that I just have to “push through” and “make it work” all for what? To make someone not have to wait an additional 30 seconds for service. I've been on the verge of a breakdown for several days and tried explaining that with that compounded with my disorders that it is making work very difficult but am met with the same “do better”

How hectic is it working remote for a call center?

I hear people say that working for a call center can be hell. But I've also come across comments where people have 45 min break between calls, have a few calls in between, or get 5 calls a day. I don't mind doing a job like that if it were work from home but get a few calls here and there. Are remote call center jobs really that bad?

Union Experiences

Howdy friends, I am looking to unionize the drivers for a local version of food delivery services like Uber Eats and Door Dash. I live in Ontario Canada and have spoken to CUPW a few weeks ago and will be speaking to someone from UFCW later today on the phone. Can one shop for unions to find which one is best suited for what you do? Both of these unions seem to represent workers of similar job descriptions but I would like to work with the one that would help us as drivers the most. Does anyone have experience with either of these unions or know what questions I should be asking? I know recently UFCW came to an agreement with Uber and they now represent drivers in the Toronto area recently but it seems kind of shady. However I am not well versed in this sort of stuff to…

I worked for a lawn company for one day

This company had us sit through 8 hours of videos on things unrelated to the actual job with a day and a half more videos left. They wanted us to do 11 hour days, without planned breaks or even the ability to take lunch, when out in the field. Which is a big problem, because I'm not going behind a bush or in a cornfield, and we would be dealing with harsh chemicals with no ability to wash our hands even if we packed food for in the truck. They changed my job title so I wouldn't get any bonuses like the other workers because I had another job that I needed to leave for in the late evening(well after a normal 8 hour shift). He had to be able to tell the other workers I get to leave “early” because no bonuses, otherwise it'd topple the house of cards.…

Or should I just keep my real resume and see where it leads me? I'm just curious. I've been a temp for 2 years doing my current work as Inventory coordinator with no benefits. I am looking to be a inventory specialist full time. Any advice?

“High paying job” according to Glassdoor

I got this email with job offers from Glassdoor, and I saw this. https://preview.redd.it/omyy9gi27em81.png?width=478&format=png&auto=webp&s=714d943af56330d06890dcbfc305fa3215eb6dca For the record, minimum wage in Quebec is being raised to 14.25 CAD this spring, so the estimate starting at 14$ is actually minimum wage.

Do less work for more money

This might seem like an odd rant, but here goes. I work for a tiny internet and cable company. We provide service to a couple dozen small towns and cities. I've been here for about a year and a half, running one of their branch offices and being part of their customer care phone team. I'm on the phone 10 hours a day (4 days a week) and I make roughly twice the minimum wage. About a month ago, I was offered an opportunity to interview for a position with the business team – same company, but substantially less work and much higher pay. I had a few interviews and just got the job a few days ago. I'm excited about the opportunity – and I would never complain about this to anyone in power – but I'll be doing quite a bit less than I'm doing now and (after…
