Me vs nazi boy

So I work at a made to order burrito place. My first day another coworker told me that one of the managers says antisemitic shit all the time. I have literally heard the D Jew insult more times in the last week than I have the entire rest of my life combined. After the first day I filed an anonymous report with corporate office then I gave it a week to be resolved. He’s still there and still saying it yesterday. So on my way out I told him to have a good night nazi boy and walked out before he could respond. I work with him and the gm in an hour. I plan on continuing to call him nazi boy until he quits or until they try to reprimand me. Beside the obvious recording any office visits and conversations with management any advice before I wade into this…

Called out today after a two week vacation

I don’t know if I should feel guilty about calling out after a two week vacation. I’m slightly jaded by my work, I was hired to be on 4 days a week as a controls project engineer and took a 16k pay cut for the schedule I desired- puts me 19k below my states average salary rate for a controls project engineer. after training for 6 months my boss tells me he has no recollection of my 4 day scheduling agreement, and because I’m salary it didn’t specify scheduling in my offer letter. This is partially my mistake by signing that but I was being young and naive to believe they’d stick to their word. My reason for calling out today is because it snowed last night and snowboarding is my favorite activity.

The amount of times I am seeing people trying to unionize is heartening. Even if they put out one fire, more keep springing up! Let’s get fair treatment for all workers.

Started a new position yesterday

I've switched careers from culinary to IT. I have about 4 years of prior IT experience before I went to culinary, but I found a position that was too good to pass up. I get to work from home or in-office whenever I want, it's salary compared to hourly, everything infrastructure wise is set up so neatly, the company pays for my medical and dental insurance, and I jumped about $11k a year by taking this position. I learned yesterday that they actually hired two of us. The other person would be starting on the 16th. I was told they didn't really have the work load currently for two of us, but that he felt it would be better to hire both of us, give us that space to get comfortable and learn everything before it gets busier (the company is currently growing). I couldn't be happier with this career…
