This is the reason why.
There are few times he also avoids eye contacts when we are having a conversation in his office. He’s not shy towards others.
Find something that makes YOU happy
The title is super cliche but it's true. I was given this piece of advice all throughout my life. My dad always told me to find a job that I love doing and not for the money. Funnily enough his stance switched and he decided to force me into nursing school and to work in healthcare because it paid well enough and he told me he didn't want to see me struggle. I hated every second I worked in healthcare. It was an abusive environment, management was toxic and couldn't care less about you and your well-being. I quit my healthcare job after being there for 3 years. 3 years of misery and manipulation. I found a job doing something that I don't even think of as a job. I've always wanted to pursue my passion and while it's a career change it's what I've always wanted to do. My…
Hate sucking dick
I’ve been in the service industry for many years now and I love it (as much as someone can enjoy a low-paying job. We’ll just say it’s the least painful “pick your poison” for me.) I’m very social, I like building real relationships with regulars. This is my first corporate service job in a long time and it truly makes me sad. We’re under so much pressure to let abuse from customers slide, to just take it. And then this same company is panicking because their retention rate is embarrassingly low, but why the fuck would anyone stay when the company stresses so hard in their training that we literally can’t even say to customers, “that’s a rude way to speak to me”. And it’s so depressingly frequent that they are rude. I try not to internalize it but I’m a person “🤡 and I’m tired of pretending I’m not”.…
Yeah, just as the title says, I don't understand bad bosses that don't treat employees fairly or pay them what they deserve. TL;DR This is my story comparing a bad boss that lost all of my loyalty, to my new place of employment that I love. If you hate your place of employment, I encourage you to leave. Something better is out there, even if you don't believe it. I'm a veterinary nurse, an occupation that's notorious for hard work for little money. It's a high stress job, and not just playing with kittens and puppies all day as some would believe. Unfortunately toxic work environments and burn-out are very common. I started at one veterinary clinic and stayed there for a short while, but ultimately ended up leaving due to said toxic work environment. The next clinic I went to had great coworkers, but the practice owner was terrible.…
We all should be siding with the MLBPA
Salaries in sports are a zero-sum game. If the players get paid less, we will not see less commercials, less patches on uniforms, or have cheaper tickets. Taking money out of the labor's pockets (fantastically talented and hard working athletes that we actually want to see) does nothing but benefit billionaire owners. Furthermore, sports are often the great equalizer where someone from a difficult and impoverished background can build generational wealth for their families. MLB salaries have dropped each of the last 4 years at a time when league profits and team valuations are skyrocketing. During CBA negotiations, players have consistently moved their requests and the owners have barely budged at all (for example, the players' request for pre-arbitration bonus pool has dropped from $130 million to $80 million while the owners have gone up from $25 million to $30 million). The league consistently plays it's wealthy and influential hand…
Boss lied about my salary
I'm 21 years old and at the beginning of the year I got a job as an English Teacher, at the place I used to study (I'm Brazilian). Since I got the message that I was hired, I started asking about the salary for obvious reasons: Because I needed to plan myself financially to see my GF since she moved due to college. And also to know if it was worth my time. And since day 1 she had been avoiding or just delaying. Despite everyone telling me to not accept the job, I gave her the benefit of the doubt and signed the contract. She then gave me my work hours and was a great boss, allowing me to leave during work to solve personal issues and etc. After that she gave me my salary R$2200 (which is great in Brazil for around 22h per week). I then thanked…
