We had a meeting today on getting back to the office. I tell the higher up. That going to the office would give a 30% less of my income in gas that I was currently saving. He told to move closer to work or buy a hybrid car. Decided to edit to add more contest. I love in Puerto Rico where the median is the poverty level in America. Most jobs here pay minimum federal wage. We speak both spa is and English and have the highest education level that most states.
hello, just for background im just 18 years old, so i’m very unaware of any legal processes that are needed to report labor violations. My aunts company hires unaware immigrants from the philippines and pays them below the minimum wage, doesn’t pay overtime, makes them work above 16 hours a day on some occasions, etc. for obvious reasons i’d like my reporting to be anonymous, but if i can’t then it doesn’t matter. im just wondering on who to contact to report this labor abuse , thank you all!

I only have 2 days and now I'm down to 1, for the…
“Woah, Get in here you gotta see this!” – my PT guy today… Not something you ever want to hear. I had a workplace injury L4-L5 disc herniation, 8 months ago, and I have had a single cortisone shot. That's it. They have done nothing to take care of me or help me in any way. A month ago, they failed to send me a disability check, failed to notify me there was an issue, and now after pestering them over and over, they sent the check for the wrong amount, and I'm missing 11 days. Between no treatment, my boss refusing to return a simple email or contact me now that I am cleared for work, and now the runaround on money, I have ZERO faith in the medical system. I am so desperate for help I can't even formulate it into words. Please, if…
