Antiwork

I work as a banker in a branch. In November my drawer was short close to $1000 and my manager said he has to call HR and 3 days later he had me sign performance improvement plan for failing to scan some documents probably which was true but didn't say anything about me giving out $1000 extra on the teller line and those improper scanning happened long time ago, but no one said anything to me until that day. He knew that I was scheduled for a medical leave in 2 weeks, so I left, came back and today (in February) he asked me to sign a final performance improvement plan for being short on the teller line. I said it doesn't look right and I need to think before signing it. Because it seems very odd that he waited 3 months to give me another warning, he could've done…

I used to work as a Deliver Driver/Installer for an AV company. Many times I had to do over time to complete jobs. As a verbal agreement with my boss she said “We don't pay overtime but you can have time in lieu and use it whenever you want as long there are no jobs on”. I agree, I didn't have a problem with it. About 3-4 months later, I had put in place for me to have 3 days over (We'd, Thur and Fri) because I had roughly 30 plus hours of time i lieu and there was no work. When the boss found out she immediacy pulled me in her office and said I couldn't have the time off. I said “well it's my time In lieu”. She turned and said “You don't get to choose when you take the time off”. I replied “Fine, I won't take…

For over 24 years I have always been told from my plant manager as a company, would rather promote from within, yet they consistently continue hire outside the company. Also having been personally told “we don’t just hand out positions. Everyone has to apply and go through the application process”, which was also not true on many occasions in the last 5 years alone.  The hardest decision I have ever had to respect is the fact that I was personally groomed over 2 years for a supervisor role, which was not only handed to someone else but then having me personally transition said replacement into that role and now one year later someone who has zero no knowledge of the department has been selected as his replacement when he takes time off. All of this has made it increasingly difficult to feel I’m contributing enough or my input is even…

I see some people here saying to do it, but doesn’t that just edge out the honest people?

I’m telling my employer tomorrow that I will not be returning to work for them. Or for anyone else for that matter. Be the change you wish to see in the world! That is all! Wooooooooooooo

This sub is great for helping workers learn their rights and supporting existing union efforts, but we have over 1.7 million people and I think we could start brainstorming and doing a lot more. The ridiculous protest in Canada has shown that a bunch of vehicles on a road is basically untouchable, meanwhile any other protest is immediately shut down. Even aside from protests we could have a stickied thread for recent news and ideas. List of local representatives to call/mail, etc.

I lost it today and finally opened up to my supervisor about a customer (I’m in retail) whom is constantly asking me to go out with him EVERY single time he checks out at my register. He is a construction contractor and makes several purchases daily. I told my supervisor that it makes me uncomfortable and stressed because he is so persistent in his invitations. I wanted to file a complaint but needed some help with the form and as he stood close by, he asked if I needed to move to another register up front …to “move away” from my regular area. This would undoubtedly change my future schedule and the times I normally work…in other words, a downgrade. I started to cry and asked why a victim of sexual harassment has to change and not the customer. All I want is for him to stop his advancements and…
