Job agency is lowballing me at $18 whereas many other people I’ve talked to make $20 for the same job.
Leaving my job, some thoughts on that.
As the title says, I’m leaving my current job and had a farewell get together dinner. The manager and couple of colleagues showed up and at the end, we all ended up paying for our food. It was weird because in previous farewell gatherings, the manager payed for the entire meal. But this time, it panned out differently. I think this added up because of the fact that there was only one team activity outside of our work and that was back in 2018. Nothing else after that. I just feel like I gave my ALL in my last 5 years but the way my exit is being handled left me feeling upset. Is this how it is in most of the workplaces? I mean, I do not expect to have a fan fest, but a simple thank you would’ve been nice. I want to move on from this incident,…
So it’s my third year in the company, I’m paid 25h per week (850€ a month) with availability hours going from 55 to 62. I’m constantly looking at the schedule because they sometimes change it at 2 am when I start at 11 am or 13 pm and i took the habit of constantly looking at it, I’m getting trashed by my boss, he told a medical emergency I had to all my coworkers. I am constantly tired, sad, i dream of work when anxiety allow me to sleep, I can’t see the end of it and I’m feeling so fucking depressed all the time. I developed bad habits like not cleaning or making myself food, I can’t find motivation to do anything I like even on my days off and, yeah that’s pretty much where I’m at. Today a coworker of mine handled a 2 weeks medical leave, and…
So I got an email from another manager pretty much appointing me and another person to track their professional learning courses. I have been in this job for almost a year and have never done that. I do not report to this manager, I report to an assistant director who is over her. From my short time being here, I noticed that she “takes on” several tasks and gets a promotion or title change and then once this happens she starts distributing the tasks to other people all the while she keeps the promotion. I asked her several questions about the task she assigned me and then I inquired with my direct supervisor and he was like you can attend the training and I guess bring any information to us if applicable. The thing is that this sh*t is a waste of my time and resources. I really don't care…
WTF Home Depot
Fair notice
I work for a local office supply and furniture company I am a “co-manager” and do ALOT for the business I had a beautiful boy in July and worked very hard to pay off debt. The person that was above me when she quit she made a comment that the owner was mad she gave a 3 month notice I’m planing on giving about a 6 week notice so I can make sure I get my vacation time I deserve. Is that fair?
Can I just copy the requirements of a job into my resume? Will employeers actually check if you graduated from a specific college or what degree you have? I just want to show up and google anything I don't know is this possible? If I give fake references or prior work numbers and list the numbers of family and friends for business listings and they give me good recommendations will this work? Any tips or advice to pull this off would be awesome.
Speaking of toxic companies…
GeToo is helping GE employees fight back! General Electric, like many toxic companies, uses forced arbitration to deny justice and demand silence. They choose the arbitrators and refuse to disclose which ones they’ve used in the past. So GeToo is doing it for them. Learn more at www.getoo.us/arbitrators
