Retail dad (also Dracula)
I am working at an event out in Colorado doing security. And I had asked my employer what time our breaks were and was told that if I wanted to take a 10, I wouldn't be able to get a lunch. Last I checked, employees, regardless of contractor status, or w-2, in the state of Colorado, I am obligated for 2, 10 minute breaks and a 30 minute lunch, am I wrong and is there any steps I can take?
Me too. Here are some sources my American (safe) self can contribute funds or time to help. These sources are specific to the war in Ukraine. I did not find these sources myself–they are from NPR.

I just quit
Still trying to get my thoughts straight here. So I'm sure I'll wonder off topic here and there. So, I was feeling kinda bad about it until I got my boss' reply. I suppose for that to make sense I need to figure out how much background I can give without going off topic. So, it's Domino's, and this is the second time I quit this exact store. The first time the stress of covid brought to the surface a lot of bullshit I'd been ignoring and when my boss tried to call me out for something in front of the whole store that was the final straw. And I'm far from the first or last person run off by this GM. After a few other crappy jobs, my roommate convinced me to go back. Even got 2 bucks raise out of it (sacarcasm party hat here). And this time,…
Hello all, I (F25) recently underwent an extensive surgery this week for my heart. They cracked open my breastbone and fixed my congenital heart defect I’ve had since birth. I wasn’t expecting it to be this intense, I am basically having to learn how to do everything. I have to learn how to walk, use my arms, how to get out of bed, all the little things taken for granted. I asked for an extension to interview since I am in the beginning stages of healing. Surprisingly, the lady said she could interview me at a later date but I am wondering how this will affect my ability to get the position. It feels like I have bad luck getting an interview at this time. I really need the job. I guess if I don’t get the job because of my surgery, I should be grateful. That’s not a company…
Is this illegal? I got a needle stick, told them. Filled out an incident report and they told me basically stay at work and not seek medical attention because it’s just “patients name” (implying that she’s a teenager and she probably doesn’t carry any diseases) Is this poor action taken on their part? to add : The needle stick made me bleed, it wasn’t a “poke”. They told me just wash it good and bandaid it up. I am young and this is my first career in the healthcare field I actually posted in here yesterday about an incident that happened that’s got me under hot water right now. Burn them before they burn me.
