Antiwork

So I'm working in the USA and frankly I'm sick of the conditions here. So I've been entertaining the idea of moving to a different country to work and was wondering what are other Countries's working Conditions like? Thanks.

I keep reading all those posts about resignations when bosses are assholes. So it's true and I'm not an American. but right now my job lacks workers, and they try to put the weight on us. So knowing full well that for the life of them they will not fire me, I'm not giving them any more time than I have too, and when they threaten me I just bluntly tell them that they can fire me if they'd like but till then I'm giving my hours when scheduled so they can go figure it out themselves. stay strong and make a decent pay till you find a better place

Not sure if this is the right sub for this, but here goes. I am severely overworked and underpaid, and I'm wondering if anybody has any good recommendations. I sorta bought into the mythology that “if you do what you love you'll never work a day in your life.” I wanted to be a scientist, so I worked my ass off to become one. I have a STEM degree from an Ivy and an astrophysics PhD from a top 5 engineering school. Now I'm a professional scientist all right, but I work 70 hours a week, I'm constantly stressed about bills, I have no job security (contracts are a year long at a time and funding never guaranteed). I'm paid the equivalent of about $12 an hour for a 40 hour workweek, or about minimum wage considering the hours I actually have to work in real life to meet expectations.…

Yesterday a coworker of mine called us after leaving the ER. She had strep and the doctor told her, “don't worry about an excuse, just wear a mask and go to work”. Fucking excuse me? This poor woman sounded terrible. I could barely understand her over the phone and her doctor said, “it's fine.” She refused to come in, my boss was wonderful and told her thank you for caring but a literal doctor told her to go to work with strep? Even doctor's don't give a single shit about workers, he refused to give her an excuse to avoid spreading STREP THROAT. Fuck. What is going on in this world??

I have been here before things got crazy and flooded with people who really didn’t understand our grievances. I cannot thank this community enough for giving me the courage to seek out a position where I was respected, valued, and paid what I was worth. I accepted an offer on Friday and sent my resignation letter this morning and I am finally free from my toxic work environment. I am moving on to something I can make a career in that came with a $20k pay increase and sign on bonus. I make this post to brag a little but mainly to give hope to others on here struggling that you can make it out and find something better. It took me over 6 months but I did it. Fight for yourself because you deserve it.

Got to work this morning and was pulled aside by my boss and given two weeks notice. I recently moved to the area with my young family (9 month old and another due in May) left the job I had been at for 5 years. He had two jobs advertised, one as a labourer and one as a experienced carpenter/supervisor. I was honest with him and applied for the labourers role as I believed I fit that better at this point in time. He decided to hire me as a carpenter with labouring roles in my job description which I was happy with and planned to train me into a supervisor over the next 6 months. I have been working for him for 5 weeks now, All has been going well, all the work I have done has been to a high standard and I’m always getting things done within…

I am longtime reader here in r/antiwork and i am gravely worry for you American folks with how those corporate is destroying your life. Our corporate is trying destroy our life too, but at least we have some thing remotely resembles a defense against their greed in my country, Czech Republic. The reason why i am writing this is our corporate had decied to lease 7 worker to from the Czech facility to the US facility. They are not engineers, not specialized workers, just your regular blue collar worker. Because nOoNe To WorKs In ThE Ol´ UsA AnYmOrE and BiDeN HaNdOuT MoNeY. So this corporate is paying thousands USD extra to bring in 7 workers from Europe on lease for few weeks rather than put that money into their workers so they would bring new one in or betten life for those currently employed. Your “The Big Resignation” movement is…
