Antiwork

I was scheduled to work 3-8 pm for a 5 hour shift. I got a call from my boss this morning saying they needed me in ASAP (I should've said no, but alas) and ending up at work at 9 am. Turns out they needed me to fill in for a different position that I was not hired for for 7 hours. This was not discussed in the morning call with my boss. All of this for subpar wage. I am scheduled off tomorrow and I was told “you're on deck for tomorrow if we need somebody” so I will be putting my phone in airplane mode tonight. Fuck this shit.

As per title, I had several shitty experiences with most of my workplaces. I was fresh out of University, and I was in a small industry where ‘everyone knows everyone’ so we were always warned to be wary of our behaviour at the workplace. Well, I was really unhappy with some of my previous jobs, but chose to just leave without saying precisely why (it’s nothing too serious, but I’m talking about being humiliated in front of others, being told I’m too sensitive when I bring up my feelings – mind you I’m in a healthcare related industry, being made to do more than my job requires etc). Basically it was always my fault even though these places also have a high turnover rate. After 4 years I decided to take a casual position and I cannot be happier as I can be my own boss without being subjected to…

I’m not one to quit on the spot. I’ve only ever done it once, and it wasn’t pleasant. I just can’t take the toxic work environment, which has placed my physical health, as well as my mental health off the proverbial stove entirely. Between the threats of being written up for not answering a phone when I physically couldn’t speak, as well as for standing my ground when I said I refuse to work while carrying Covid because “corporate said it has to be done this way”, and never following through with a promotion I was all but promised from the former head manager. My time, effort, and work ethic have been taken advantage of, and I can’t take it anymore. I’m now off to work for a dealership as a porter, with benefits starting after my 90 days are up, and with a more stress free work environment.

Resignation letter. Good day gentlemen. I am writing this letter today to inform you that I will be leaving company name in 2 weeks time. I have been so happy to have been able to build my career and skills with such an amazing company. I am truly going to miss all the amazing people I have had the privilege of working with over my almost 10 year career here. I have had many highs and lows in this time at company name. I have watched many people come and just as many leave in my time here. I was hoping to not be the one leaving but after many days and nights and a lot of sole searching. I feel my time has come to try a new chapter in my career path. I will always have a place in my heart for every friend I’ve made along the…

A distraction from living wages, corruption in government and in police, as well as a distraction from our fight for the average worker? Don't stop the support for Ukraine, but don't forget our goals.

Nobody wants to work anymore I told my shareholders that I'm sorry but if people don't stop being so darn lazy I might have to sell a Ferrari ​ I need some heroes! I need naïve single mothers with low self esteem until they realize it pays $1275 and day-care costs $1350 ​ I need some heroes! People so desperate they buy groceries on their credit cards My minimum wage won't even cover your rent get your bread with 20% APR ​ I bought a yacht and a tennis court with my government bail out loan. Now they act, as taxpayer backed collateral for my summer home! ​ I need some heroes! College graduates in Information technology with at least $80 grand in student debt for jobs we'd rather fill with H1B's ​ I need some heroes! Must have some experience and a masters degree for my internship with no…

Tldr at the end Hey all, I need some help. My fiancee is an English citizen and is currently in a job they hate out of necessity. We have this whole situation with the spouse visa which we need to get married so I can emigrate that necessitates they make above 19,000 GBP per year (my wage can't count toward this total until I have leave to work in the UK). They work in assisted living for people with autism right now and there are 3 services in the town they live in, all of which are understaffed. The job itself would be ideal for them if it weren't for management, low pay, and the insane schedule. None of the employees are allowed to set boundaries with the residents (they'll get told off by the managers if they try to withdraw support because they feel uncomfortable due to sexual advances…
