Not quite anti-work, but definitely anti-corporate greed. Can I get your help? Ukraine-Russia conflict

I’m a social media lurker and not really a poster, but I’m trying to bring some awareness to an issue I feel passionate about in regards to the current Ukraine-Russia conflict. I have family and friends still in Ukraine and I’m trying to do my part, however small it may be. Philips (Koninklijke Philips N.V.) a massive international company, has made no moves or announcements on their stance of doing business in Russia. Meanwhile their main competitor, Siemens, has already started to impose their own restrictions on business with Russia. To give you a little background, during WW2, both of these companies fell into the hands of German occupation. Siemens produced for Nazi Germany, while Philips fled to the US to avoid it. In fact, the son of the CEO, Anton Philips even stayed behind and helped save the lives of nearly 400 Jews. Siemens learned from their mistakes and…

How do I stress out less from work?

We’re under a huge crunch to execute an IT project. No real rush from an operations standpoint but I suspect the rush is coming from executives wanting it yesterday. How do I care less about the quality of my work when project manager is rushing me with unrealistic deadlines. I cannot delegate most of my work. My boss knows I am capable at work, so I’m not afraid of backlash there. I am just used to being a perfectionist and I can’t seem to make myself half ass my work to meet deadlines. Please help me change! I don’t want thoughts of work stressing me out after the work day.

Is it a red flag if your employer holds your first paycheck until the end of the month?

TLDR; got a job with great health benefits and decent pay in the public school systems. But I was told I won’t get my first paycheck until the 31st. Is this normal? Any reason behind it?

Getting fired right out of college

I just need to get it off my chest. I was very excited to start my job after graduating. I worked hard for my degree and was hopeful that I was on the right path. Turns out, I wasn’t. The company had so many red flags and now I’m just realizing them. First, the president of the company was very, very abrasive. He tries so hard to be this “cool and relaxed” type of guy but he’s such a hard ass. I confided to him about a health issues that has been going on and subsequently, made me miss a week of work (I was puking every day multiple times) and he told me, “Have you tried going vegan?” Second, they call themselves a “family”. That’s just a huge red flag in of itself. The work environment was awful and toxic. As a women, my field is very men dominated.…

So what does full-time employment mean to you?

Growing up, I was taught to expect 35+ hours/week, and anything less was considered Part-Time. At my current job, 30 hours is considered full-time, and I am employed as such. However, I barely get over 15 hours per week now, and this has been going on for months. Meanwhile a co-worker with the same job title has been scheduled for over 50 hours per week for the last two months, and a newer person has been getting more hours than me. I'm already in the process of looking for a new job, and educating myself so as to get on a different career path, but I was wondering if anyone else has been getting shafted like this.
