Manager already hates me and it’s my 7th day working here.

My friends also work here and she hates them as well (she’s trying to convince them to break up because one of them is her favorite). I make 8.50 and work 10 hours a week so I genuinely don’t know if this is worth it. I didn’t get proper training (nobody trained me) so she’s mad I’m not doing things right, the thing is I thought I did really good yesterday, I cleaned and took orders and made some orders all by myself for the most part. I work fast food and I’m in high school

I started in heavy industries in 2010 at 24/hr. Company interviews me for a job at 22/hr. Businesses really are racing to the bottom

I'm not some green fresh out of college guy anymore. With 8+ years in various stages of construction to maintenance of wind turbines I have a decent set if skills. Yet it amazes me the few offers I've had this year are less than what I started for and even less when inflation is considered. Base pay for heavy industries should now be 30 and up. Anyone offering 18 an hour (which did come up) for general heavy industries is just to insulting potential employees.

How to Ruin Your Hobby

Short time reader, first time poster.

Got a raise last week. A whole $1/hr. So now I make $16/hr. Wendy’s down the road starts out at 17/hr, mind you. And I worked in a warehouse with building materials (aluminum gutter, vinyl siding, hardie board, etc.) Every time I brought up a problem they replied with, “why you always complaining? or “you complain so much.” So I stopped complaining. Branch manager text me last Tuesday at 10:15PM. (He knows I wake up at 4:50AM to be at my job at 6.) I never answered his text, 1) don’t text me at 10PM. B) I don’t want to go to lunch with him. III) I don’t have his number saved. Monday and yesterday he tries to guilt trip me about not answering. “You’re breaking my heart not wanting to go to lunch with me!” (Out loud in front of my coworkers and customers) and I say, “yeah. We…

Do you think bankers get paid too much? Why or why not?

I was talking about this with someone I know and wanted to know what others think. Edit: not talking about the ppl who work at your local bank branches, more like investment bankers and whatnot

A weird thing I’ve noticed about the “no one wants to work anymore” posters

Those posters that right-wing business owners keep putting up because they don't want to pay a living wage? Does anyone else find it weird that it's almost the exact same fucking script on all of them? Stinks of astroturf. Is some connservative business group giving all these small businesses the same lil pathetic script to put up?

Anybody else hate the industrial slave complex so much they wrote a song about it? Well, I did. It’s called Get Up and Work! (if this is not allowed, I’ll delete)
