Antiwork

Saw a sign while out running errands today… Competitive pay – $12/hr. Are they high??? (Chas, SC for reference LOL)

I love when a person no shows and interview and the manager gets mad about it, but today when I was asked to show up 2 hours before the store opened to have an interview and the manager never showed up, I'm told to suck it up basically. You don't like people wasting your time, but you can waste my time, my gas, and my energy just to no show me.

I work at a boxing shipment factory ( we make cardboard) and im all done with my tasks early and my boss says “ go look for something to do”. I don’t know what to do. I just cleaned up my station and now I’m scrolling Reddit and writing this post. Any advice ? Before I get scolded at for doing “nothing”

While most of us don’t want to work every single day, we all came aboard knowing we’d be working overtime. So now after a recent hiring craze, our thank you for standing by the company through unprecedented times is a reduction in pay. They are forcing us to vote on a schedule change that will have us working as little as three days in a week. One of the options…

So I’m a young manager in a beauty store, I’ve been working here for less than a year. I started off as a stocker and within 6 months they made me manager (red flag). So I technically do everything around the store, do orders, do inventory, payroll, everything that has to do with management for $12 dollars an hour. Yesterday I called my boss who is also the owner of the store to ask him if I could work in the morning on Saturday because something came up. I should’ve known what to expect, just a straight no, and I kind of broke because I’m tired of everything. Whenever they need me to come in I come, if someone doesn’t show up on my off day I come, if I’m sick I still have to show up. I explained how I was feeling, about my pay, and how the whole…
