Work place Issue

Sorry if this isn’t something to be on here, but really need to know from other people point of view on this. In my own personal prospective. I have felt that he has always picked on me with everything, especially if I’m doing something he doesn’t like, even to the most minor things. (Example: Clicking the button multiple times for the water to fill up the dishwasher) As there been times, clicking the button once has not made the water fill up the washer. His attitude towards me, is very poor. Feeling has if I’m not intelligent enough to do my job properly. Also riding on me for everything, and comparing me to himself and others. So this eventually builds a lot of stress has it constantly continues through the weeks. On February 14th 2022, Monday night. Sand, as usual proceed to keep his attitude towards me. When he asked…

Is there even hope for me?

I live in a growing city, near a few colleges. I couldn’t finish college because of struggles with my mental health. The recent graduates (of undergrad and graduate school) are struggling to find jobs in their field, and working grocery stores and fast food places in my area. I just lost my job only source of income. If the doctors are working at my McDonald’s, what is an autistic dropout supposed to do for money?

A satisfying re-analysis of Will Smith’s Pursuit of Happyness

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zgmfOlozYL8 I didn't remeber the movie as a horror movie, but I can't see it any different now ​ Edit: I was listening to the amazing podcast Citations Needed and they mentioned a platform, substack. I went to substact and typed in “antiwork” into the search bar and this was the first result: https://americanidle.substack.com/ I enjoyed the video and I am always looking for more stuff like that to listen to on my way to work – so if you have other similar recomendations, please share:)

Nursing job vs Nursing agency

So I'm an LPN with a Diploma from a tech school. Currently it's school, working towards my RN BSN. Been an LPN for 7 years and have various fields of experience. From geriatric nursing home type of work to currently clinical dialysis setting. Our workload has been increasing rapidly with no additional help from additional staffing. Our company keeps saying it's because people don't want to work for us. Well with our current wages I can't blame them. I've been with this company for 4 years and have only seen a raises adding up to of a little under 2 dollars. And this was during the height of COVID. Nursing agencies have been increasing and nurses have been quitting in droves for what these agencies are offering. Pay is basically almost double depending on what cases you pick up. I'm posting here wondering if there are any nurses here who…

Screw Paladin Security

Basically the heading. Paladin is a terribly managed company who completely mishandled the covid pandemic. Managers were all working from home pretty much asap, while most of the rest of the office staff were forced to continue to work on site. I worked in a large room that housed 3 teams, so they moved two of those teams out in order to “comply with covid protocols” but moved both of those teams to a much smaller conference room and set us up facing each other so that we were all breathing at each other. One staff member had a girlfriend who returned from a trip in China and was ordered to isolate at home, he requested to be able to work from home temporarily and was promptly denied. So he tried to just use his PTO to stay home instead and was told if he didn't continue to come in…
