Imaging a boss…
Naming and shaming is important
Discussion is futile without naming companies and reaching out to investor relations or blowing up their twitter.
I work as an analyst and this is my first real job out of college; been here about two years now, pretty much being WFH the whole time. It was a new field to me but I was catching on quick and even began to Quality Control others within my first year. About six months ago I was asked if I wanted to help train some new people internationally and be sent overseas to help set up and train a new office, but of course Delta happened at that time and things got cancelled. Instead, they had me become a team lead for their international project remotely and put me in charge of a group of 50+ analysts, making work plans, ticket assignments, conducting trainings, running meetings, doing one-on-one “remediations”, pretty much all manager responsibilities. The thing is, I’m still just considered to be at the associate level officially and…
This is everywhere because I am emotional and pissed. I am currently working in a pretty small kitchen, with mostly teenagers. When I was first hired I was told I was filling the sous position and that I would be getting a raise after a month once I can prove myself. Awesome! There was a miscommunication somewhere I guess and that title quickly disappeared and so now I am just “second in charge”. Whatever. Most of the older people who work in the kitchen work mornings doing prep besides for Friday-Sunday when we serve lunch. Of course, I work nights because I can work two to three stations at once. We just got done a $6k night. The start of my shift the first thing that happened was my “executive chef” pulled me into dry storage to tell me that there is a new sous chef. I, of course get…
pre employment physical is stupid
so I had a pre employment physical for a job this was pretty much the last step it was for 100 lbs cool no problem, brief summary of me I just turned 19 yrs old 5’8 135 lbs 13% body fat im healthy and fit i always workout eat clean walk daily no drugs or alc, i was a little stressed because i lost my wallet and some other shit happened + it was like a 40 min drive i get there and start off with a blood pressure test, they said it was way too high and so was my heart rate i said I was nervous and just ignored me, so at the end I do my 100 lbs physical and mind you this was the hardest one they had and they say majority of people fail at just 50 lbs and most of the people who come…
Why is my boss mad and what do I do?
Long story short: Joined big tech company less than a month ago. Boss assigned me last-minute, non-critical task to have done by the end of the day but didn't tell me to send it to him. He sends me a message the next day telling me he didn't get anything from my last night. I see the message late due to tech issues (have done everything I can, all I can do is wait for response from IT). He's been nice so far but he sends me back a bitter message saying I need to get it resolved by the end of the week and start taking accountability and ownership. I send him the task, he ignores my explanation, so I set up a meeting to explain myself and he tells me he's upset that I'm not being a “leader” and that I waited two weeks after my start date…

If you're doing what you can to put food on the table for the people you love, that's something to be proud of.
