Antiwork

On mobile so apologies in advance for poor formatting. I’ve never felt more exploited in my life. The company I’m working for has asked me to take on 2 additional roles over the past 2.5 years. Today I had a meeting to “celebrate” me which resulted in them assigning me additional, more complex work under the guise of building me up for the future. No talk of a shift in compensation or title. Nothing. Not a single fucking penny. I’m really at a loss. I can’t afford to leave but I’m killing myself staying. I’ve tried applying to 100+ roles and I’ve gotten no bites. My current company gave me such a low title comparative to the work I’m doing that every interview ends is question marks about my current skill set. Just a rant. Thanks void and random folks for listening.

Thought I might be immune from the bs. Boss just said our pay is being delayed, without explanation. I'm lucky to have a small amount saved up and I quit immediately.

So I work as a part of a family business. It’s grown faster than we could keep up with over the last 6 months. Up to now it’s been a good job, everyone’s had a mutual understanding of each other, everyone was treated equally, flexible etc., but it’s changed since this growth. Over the weekend I fell over onto my ankle quite badly , by Sunday it was pretty obvious I wasn’t gonna be able to make it into work on the Monday. But it’s no big, it’s an admin job and I have a laptop with the system on so I can basically do the job from anywhere. I offered to work from home as other than my ankle I was fine, and got a bit of a begrudging “ok” Informed HR guy, to which the first comment was “oh, were you drunk? If so it was self inflicted”…

This is up to each state and enforced by federal law? What is holding up getting this changed? Can we the ppl send out a bill to make changes ourselves? Just trying to be more informed.

I know this is my first real post ever. But uh I got laid off by a bigwig company yesterday whose online meeting just got highjacked by angry ex-employees and those facing their likely outcome. Anyway I don’t think their severance package is half-bad but I’ve already landed a measly job. Anyway, just thought I would reach out and maybe get some advice. Please don’t be too harsh

Really not sure if this belongs here but I’ve been looking for a permanent job since June, and living off of my tuition refund/seasonal jobs. I don’t know how to pay my bills next month so I gave in and decided to go back to an old company. I just found out from an previous coworker that one of the other people I worked with transferred to the store I will be at. He harassed me and acted so weird I don’t feel comfortable around him. How do I approach this topic with HR? I’m supposed to start the onboarding on Saturday.

So we all know Peloton gave its 2800 laid off employees a year of Peloton membership as part of their severance, but does anyone know what the complete package contained?

Been at this company five years. Lead the department I am in an make $18/hr. Started at $14. Working as a painter using automotive paints, but it doesn't have anything to do with cars, just plain old manufacturing. The thing with painting is that there are many compatibility issues with various products, which means what works at this place isn't necessarily going to work at other places. As it stands now, I am the only employee who knows all the ins and outs of our process. Even bringing in another skilled painter would mean they would need training on a number of things. The good: Flexible with hours, just need to put in the minimum of 32 hours. As long as you get your workload done you're good to go. They are very safety conscious, buy the best of the best in order to diminish the health risks, though you…
