True Action

I posted earlier but it removed for (I'm assuming) the egging comment as being violence, though I really don't get that (didn't you all egg things as kids?) But whatever, okay. No one punishes these people. Let's do a website or something, (a newsletter for the techno challenged?) outlining what we know. Let's list these rich a$$hole$ ($ – no pun intended). Let's list their purchases, their salaries, their companies. Let's list your stories. Your sweat shop, slave labor conditions. Your economic hardships. Nothing will ever change because people can't relate. So show them the truth. Someone start a video blog. Someone with the background start prepping to “interview” these oligarchs. We have people from all walks of life with varied skills and experiences. Why can't we truly put something in motion? A web page. A newsletter. A blog. A video blog. A nonprofit. An actual functioning system for change…

If I was rich I’d still be miserable

but at least I wouldnt be a slave any more and could instead cope how I want, do whatever I want… I'd be FREE

Can’t afford to work

I drive about 35-40 minutes to work everyday. I can't afford the job because gas is going up and the “promotion” won't take effect until 6 months after I start the new job. No benefits, no Healthcare, nothing. I can't afford to do what I need to survive. Called in sick today and I'm applying to as many jobs as possible. I was hired on by a staffing agency so my time card goes to them and I have some benefits through them but my boss won't let me take time off for appointments. After my 3 months is up with the staffing agency I interview again for my current job, I'll be employed by that company. 0 benefits. I can't stand it.

Employer scheduling shifts the night before

Hey all, I’m looking for some advice on the legality of what my employer has been doing. They have added me to work schedules the night before the scheduled shift. This is when they have already send out the full schedule the week before. It happened again last night and it’s the 3rd time for me, (my coworkers are just used to it now and don’t put up a fight). Isn’t there a minimum amount of time they need to give to notify me of changes to the schedule? I make plans and then see they scheduled me the night before my shift. I want to make sure if I don’t show up there won’t be repercussions for me. I am located in New Mexico. Thanks in advance!

It’s not just employees McDonald’s treats like crap. It’s customers too

Last week I go to McDonald's and ask for a large cup of water with my large meal and they say they literally cannot do that. There's no way whatsoever for them to give me a large cup of ice water. I paid for a large meal which includes a large drink, They can fill it with Coca-Cola, Sprite, whatever. But they stated that it is apparently not humanly possible for them to pick up a large cup and fill it with some water. They also don't like to let you use contactless payments. Some McDonald's have them where they pull out this really long extendable rod with a card reader at the end so you can just tap your card on top of it. Most McDonald's require you to literally give them your card or your entire phone if you are using Google Pay or something like that. Very…
