was my employer allowed to do this?

so this happened with my first job working at safeway ive been there maybe 8 months (quit now) then suddenly one of the managers told me i have to work night shifts, 10-6. obviously im not going to do that. im 18, i have a life with family and friends and im not going to just throw that away. so i told them i cant do it, they said that i dont have a choice. the manager also said “well i worked night shift when i was your age” i just said ok and left. i ended up doing 1 night shift and it was fucked. i showed up 2 hours late on purpose to an angry manager waiting for me so he can go home. the night shift employees there are also insane and got mad at me for walking passed them so i coukd stock an isle next…

You have the right to control your own sexuality, but you don’t have the right to rape children (as legally defined by society). Likewise, you have the right to property, but not to billions of dollars in wealth.

Just as our predecessors evolved age of consent laws, eliminated legal slavery, and developed laws against individuals murdering each other, modern human society needs to evolve limits on property rights, Those limits could be at 100 million dollars or whatever (age of consent laws and speed limits can also vary by jurisdiction), but you cannot by worthy of the protection and acceptance of human society if you do not accept that there are limits on the property that you can claim for yourself. This is as obvious of a moral/ethical concept as the idea that murder and slavery should be illegal. The only reason this doesn't seem exceedingly obvious is the abuse, theft, and extreme socioeconomic oppression inflicted by the ruling capitalist/kleptocrat class on the public and working classes to keep them in line. People claiming more than ~100 million in property rights deserve to be kicked out of human…

Why don’t any of you ever negotiate pay when your managers text you to come in unscheduled?? You’re missing a gigantic opportunity. You a waiter and you need to cover a shift? Okay, great. $100 to start the night, then $16.00/hr plus tips. Can’t do it for anything less.

The reward for work well done is more work

I gave everything i had to a job, i work Saturdays and Sundays, work until 2 am, work a lot more hours than i was hired to, work with covid while i could barely breath…and all because of this delusional idea of “working hard is good” and “doing the bare minimum is bad”. Well for all the sacrifice i got: – 0 extra money – a lot of more work because i was doing such a fantastic job :)) I quit last Friday and for the future i plan to fully embrace the philosophy of doing the absolutely minimum in every job i have for the rest of my life.
