Antiwork

Rented an apartment at one point because they were the only place I could find with a reasonable amount for rent AND they allowed cats and small dogs for pets. Stayed there for about 8 months before I moved out of state. They sent back what was left of my deposite after an 800$ deduction from it claiming that my cat urinated all over the edges of the carpet during my stay. I know this was a lie because I was cleaning my cats litter box out daily and also cat piss smells horrible if left unattended. I also had friends and family help move me out and clean the place before I left. Nobody saw or could smell any sign of cat pee anywhere. Made sense why the landlord didn't require a walkthrough of the place before I left. Which was a mistake on my part. Lesson learned.

I just want to have the time to spend with my nieces and nephews. I don’t have kids. Am single AF and content. But I love those kids and they love me! I wish I could stop exchanging time for money. It’s why I’m trying to open a few small business that I can eventually don’t have to change time for money (let it run mostly by itself) all the while working my full time job. It’s taking me a while because I love spending time with them. Sigh. Just wanted to vent.

I was just reminded of this. At a former job I has a coworker we will call T. T was a pretty good employee. His biggest fault was just being a little slow on side projects and sometimes getting distracted in side conversations. But he knew how to do his job, didn't call in, etc. He was late one week a couple of times. Not majorly late. 5/10 minutes each time. I think he had to share a car that week or something. (This was several years ago.) Our store manager made him stand in the corner as punishment. I wasn't there that day or I'd have gone off. I found out about it way later and felt it would be more awkward for T to bring it up then. I wish I had. I actually liked that manager but all he did was talk on the phone and then…

Tomorrow I'm giving my boss a one week notice, leaving for a union job with benefits. Preface: I've been working for this guy for over 18 months, with very little time off. Constant late nights and weekends, and fuck all to show for it. Lost a bunch of hours because his truck had to be sent for maintenance for weeks at a time. The guy has zero communication skills. Cherry on top: he never paid a nickel into CPP and EI, so my audit is gonna suck ass

I worked as a guest service lead at travel center(truck stop) for 8 years. I was burnt out and tired of covering my lazy Gm who literally sat on her ass for hours in the office. Who would get paid out huge bonuses for profit sharing. Towards the end I was pushing for a raise and they would not budge so I decided to end my time with the company. (I also developed severe insomnia from my schedule bouncing around constantly) I got a job working from home(it’s pretty awesome) for a call center working for various doctors,dentists and various medical offices. Training was easy money it was about 3 weeks. My first week alone wasn’t too bad. So I haven’t ever really worked at a call center I’m still getting used to sitting down all day and my “call etiquette “. I just had a team member warn me…
