Newell Brands is making corporate employees travel to Florida later this month for a mandatory sales conference. They are putting the health of their employees and their families at risk of contracting Covid all to avoid losing their hotel deposit. Most admired indeed.

I’m getting older and I love you guys. Have you watched “Joe Versus the Volcano?”

This is the movie that radicalized me and my relationship with work. I hope some of you have seen it. I hope some of you will discover it for the first time.

Boss tried to guilt trip me into coming in while i have covid

I tested positive for covid last wednesday and i am still coughing and having symptoms. He calls me today at like 12pm asking to come in knowing damn well im not feeling well and taking medications. I work in pediatrics!!! How the hell can you let someone who is positive for covid come in and take care of children and infants??? He kept telling me to just take some OTC medications and come in. “Where an n95, you'll be fine. Ive been coughing a little bit too and coming in.” Okay and? I recorded the conversation just in case. This is the 2nd time i got covid in 2 months. The first time i got it my bosses REAMED me. Im hoping they give me shit tomorrow for having covid again. I applied for another job together so hopefully i'll get it!

Landed good paying job. It never said there would be a drug test. But there sure is. I am in a weed-legal state. Will my weed-filled pp make the bosses not happy?

30 minute lunch breaks are employee abuse

Seriously, you barely have time to think about something else, and eat at a healthy pace, let alone eat healthy. I've hated every employer that only allowed 30 minutes, just because the law where I live is dumb. I can't be the only one that thinks this.
