Antiwork

During the final interview with the CFO I said the usual, like what my day to day looks like, what accomplishments I had, and what personal projects I’m working on. After I was done speaking he starts saying that this position would require me to work overtime, (without overtime pay since this is a salaried position), and weekends. In my mind I was like, this already sounds like conditions I don’t want to be in. Then at the end he asks me if I have any questions. I normally like to ask this, “do you have any concerns about my background?” so I can gauge how I am doing and I know what to work on for the next interview. Then he proceeded to respond with, “the fact that you have no background”. I stayed calm and then left the office. As soon I got into my car and processed…

I’m a Gen Xer, on my second career in a second unionized environment. I’ve worked both sides of the contract in one career, our union members supervise another unionized workforce, and I later became a manager there. In the other it’s strictly on the labour side. So I’ve seen up close, the shitty things management and labour do to each other while the customers finish up the trifecta in a 3 way knife fight. All of that aside, no matter what, there were rules and any worker could, if not a lot else, expect to be treated fairly and equally by the company. The only difference is your seniority date when it’s time to crew. So since my early 20s, I’ve basically never worked for, answered to, or been the voice of “the owner”. The owner in one job was is an ever shifting conglomerate and their shareholders, and the…

That's all. Just kinda annoyed me a bit. Edit: I said similar but I think I'm paid the same. I'm paid $13. I see a lot of job postings for MCDs and such paying $13+.

Where can I go to leave a bad review for an employer? It was the shortest Zoom interview I did and a waste of my time. I got disqualified from the job cause I also have an interest to learn Augemented reality and VR next to my User Interface design skill. They told me good luck. ArtVersion fuck you I dont need you. Wasted my time fuckers,

I think Ceo's/owners should have to work in their own store as the lowest grunt. for however long it takes them to earn a living wage. If you pay your work 7.25 an hour and they need to work 60 hours a week to make ends meet then guess what that owner or ceo has to work 60 hours a week right along side you. I bet if we started to do that wed see an increase in wages real quick.

For background, I'm 24 years old and never been regularly unemployed. Never gotten past the first day. All I can put on my resume is volunteer work. Today I had an interview at Starbucks. I really wanted to get this job since I liked the idea of being a barista. My ride bailed on me so I had to pay a $19 Uber to get there. I flunked the interview. I tried to bullshit my through the best I could. Lots of questions like “can you give me a good example of you doing a group project” “can you tell me about your people skills”. No I fucking can't. This is an entry level job. I have no experience. I couldn't work due to my disabilities. I was homeschooled throughout highschool. But I couldn't say that. I lied and paraphrased stories from middle school. At the end I asked how…

I never thought I’d be posting here but this really just irked me to the core so I thought I’d share Let me preface this by saying I’m in construction and my job sites are usually (45-1hr 30) away from my house. I’m usually there before any of my coworkers most days because I work at 7 A.M and I leave around 5:15-5:30 to go to work and wait in my car until 7, I do this mainly to beat traffic and to gradually start my day. Yesterday however we were told to be there at 7:30 AM so I decided I’d leave my house at a time that would get me there around 7:20. I get there AT 7:30, grab my tools and go see my foreman. He tells me (insert supervisors name here) had just left at 7:25 and he has been waiting on me to show up…

Just a brief rant, as I've been job hunting the last couple of days. The last couple of years have really put me in a mindset of never wanting to have to work in an office (or store, or what have you) ever again. Anything I'm qualified for, I'm qualified to do remotely. So, naturally, I'm filtering my job search to show me only remote jobs. It seems like every third or fourth job posting indicates that it's remote, but then describes job duties that simply cannot be done remotely – for example, receiving shipments, picking and packing outgoing shipments, PHYSICALLY DELIVERING packages… How hard is it for these people to put up accurate job listings? If my duties will require my physical presence to complete, THEN IT ISNT FUCKING REMOTE THEN, IS IT?
