Antiwork

where are the employment that pay people ethically and still allow their employees to rest and have boundaries? I don't know if there is already a list but please plug me in if anyone is looking. I am skilled in art, working with children, i can learn how to farm. I know that this in itself is contradicting because jobs are supposed to exploit us. But I am seriously asking because i need a change in my own material conditions like now. All the jobs I apply have job descriptions that don't match the pay and/or ask for too much out of one person. I'm barely hanging on but working these jobs, I learned I rather be unemployed and broke, than broke and exploited in employment. But, all i really want is to barter my labor ethically, and a job that allows me to pay my expenses, respects and gives…

I get a job. I do good for a few month but it slowly gets worse. My mental health completely breaks and I have a meltdown and end up in a mental hospital. I lose/quit my job. I get better and think “maybe it's time I get back on my feet.” I get a job. Rinse wash repeat. When will it end?

Was stopping to grab a meal and the line got to being out the door. 1 cashier. Only when it hit the outer door did the manager put 2 more cashiers on. The line fell to halfway to the door, and back to 1 cashier.

Hey y'all i have a bit of a rant, bare with me lol. i work in a adult care center, place where grown folk live at to be monitored, and receive help 24/7 short term and long term. I'm the Front Desk. Anyways, i got a call from a patient's daughter. the patient was set to be discharged this upcoming Friday. the daughter wanted to pick her up today no if, what's, or buts. told her the main business office who takes care of paperwork like insurance and other personal documents, she wasn't having it. she clicks and i don't think any much of it. A few hours later. i see a few cars pull in, kids and adults storming into a front of the facility trying to get in (locked due to needing a code pin) and they start bashing the door. all the nurses hear the noise and…

Interviewed for a new job I have experience in, received Offer, and in it was a direct deposit form. Haven't signed it yet. I know it might not seem like a huge deal but it just feels greasy consenting to them going into my account in case they overpay. I'm in Canada. How do you feel about this?

Never trust what a company says, ever. I don’t care how trustworthy they’ve been up until now, how selfless they seem, how caring their posture is because when push to comes to shove, they’ll fuck you over. Take it from me. I [27M] was working nearly the past two years at a non-profit in MA. They specialize in in-home services. Now, I fell into this job from a friends recommendation and initially, it was a good gig. Union gig,salaried, good benefits, yatta yatta. The biggest catch was that the company was based out East while I was an hour to an hour and a half away. Fortunately, they had one sole client near me—only 30 or so minutes. I was with him full time. Time passes and things get on well until my client decides to cancel services with me. All good, things happen. I bring it up to my…

Good day reader, I just would like to get a few things off my chest, and maybe a few words of encouragment please. Two weeks ago, whilst working and using my company vehicle, I got into a small motor vehicle accident. The car is still driveable, but the damage is between $1500 and $2000. I do not have to pay this, but I feel extremely dissapointed in myself about this for some reason. On the day of the accident when I reported it to my boss, the first thing he told me was that we would have to have a meeting to discuss a way forward as I have been involved in 2 accidents in about 10 months, without asking me if I was doing okay. Both accidents have been very minor. For context, I drive a lot. Roughly 5-7 hours a day. My boss also expects us to work…

It's crazy that my employer expects people in the office to follow certain rules that WFH obviously don't. They signed paperwork starting that they'll follow the rules but there's no way to enforce them. My employer is under the impression that anytime anyone as much as sees a cell phone that that person is stealing credit card numbers. But somehow trust WFH more to not do that. This is a call center by the way.
