Might get fired, probably for the best. But this is where I work, I’m a plant operator, we’re 24/7 here & last year all I got was a .30 cent raise from an evaluation they did that I wasn’t even aware of. Currently making $18.87 to do my job along with the other trades, as well as being understaffed.

Got up, tried to sign into work, found out I got fired without any notice

I had been sick and missed some days of work, along with having tech issues which werent even my fault(it was a work from home job). A soulless call center service job, where I was at least attempting to do the best I can. Dedicated 6 months of my time, just to wake up yesterday and have all of my accounts deleted and not even be told I was fired. They didnt even have the courtesy or courage to say it to my face. I called my contractor who got me the job, they werent even made aware until they called. Honestly I just feel uncared and disrespected from the jobs I've worked and I'm in a cycle I don't know how to get out of. Fuck this system.

How long will we have to show proof of vaccination to work? I mean we have many vaccines as babies, but no one has asked to see my proof of measles vaccination in awhile. At some point will they just stop asking about this? -By the way I'm not anti-vaccine nor is this post intended to be a political statement.

I went from P/T receptionist to a salaried manager in 5 months. Am I missing red flags?

I don't want to give too much information, but I want to know if I'm making a mistake and thought this community would be brutally honest. I am not college educated and have never before been in management. I worked as a bank teller and in accounts receivable until I had my first child. I have been out of the workforce for 16 years. Last year, I heard about a company needing a P/T (6 hours/day) receptionist. I decided to dip my toes back into the working world. Life was starting to become too expensive to live off one income. I am very intelligent. I excelled in school and although I stopped working, I never stopped learning. I read and am self-taught in a lot of different areas. I am a good and reliable worker. I don’t abuse company policies, but I make sure I do take all benefits that…

My small business owner boss is asking me for personal favors

So I got a job at a small business in September because I wanted to have some steady income while I work on side hustles that could become full time. Before I got hired. I mentioned that I didn't want to work every Saturday 1 because it would be 1 day off I could have with my SO and 2 because I have D&d. They said that it was fine if I could work every other Saturday but when I showed up for my on Saturday they were like oh sorry we actually need you to work every Saturday. They said I could leave early if I wanted to but it was pretty obvious they had no intention of ever giving me that day off. Then I asked her if I could get set up on direct deposit because I need to build up credit and cards like Chime require…
