Company wanted to pay me overtime after 50, I insisted that it would be ideal for me to get overtime after 40. This was a trucking position driving tractor trailers on a graveyard shift. Hiring manager insisted that overtime after 50 was fair and competitive in the trucking industry. I knew that I would be missing out on a lot of money because it was 50-55 hours a week and they're just doing that to save the company money. I know my worth and I denied the offer

I have to assume that everyone following this subreddit hates major corporations. If you do recommend that you watch and also do not watch Downfall: The Case Against Boeing on Netflix. Spending 90+ minutes hearing all about how a major corporation gave literally gave no fucks about human lives and only cared about stock prices and profits is infuriating!!!!
TLDR at bottom As the title says i'm a laborer atm, i work in a factory and make ok money for the rural area 14.50. I cought covid back in 2020 didn't have it to bad and lost taste for half a year, however since then i catch everything and have missed soo much work i'm sure im going to lose my job at some point probably sooner than later.

I am leaving in two weeks and wanted to cash out my sick hours , I was going to do it where I did 8 hours every week so it won't be all out once but they said I can't do that even tho it says I can do it with a week's notice which is what i was doing. And now they're saying I won't be able to cash out all of them because it's only the first quarter so 32/4 is only 8 hours . So they said 8 hours is the most they can do but someone who recently has quit told me she got all her sick time paid off into her last check.

I work in a salaried job in insurance. I am ill. Not Covid, but pretty nasty sinus infection. I’m tired, run down, all together feeling like one would when you are sick. I called off today but I am worried about calling off tomorrow as I have assigned tasks that are due tomorrow. I am worried about backlash from my supervisor and peers as they will need to pick up and complete these tasks. Idk what to do.
