Antiwork

So the pub (in UK) I work at has recently had a manager tell us that being a single minute late once in a week will mean no tips for the week (not a crutch for the wage like in America but still a nice bonus/incentive) The manager didn't seem to respond well to me laughing at the idea being late by a minute once would justify no tips or that this would remove any incentive (imagine you're late by a minute on Monday, why would you try?)

I worked for Ingersoll Rand last year between August and October, had to resign because apparently talking about marijuana at work is a NO NO even though over half of the country is legalized.

Stop fucking worrying about what I do after hours

Once I've got enough to get setup somewhere I'm heading straight to a low cost country to be as self sufficient as possible
