Antiwork

Today there was really shitty weather, while I'm wet in the train station I get a text from my boss: “hey, I'm going to work from home today so I'm available on text” So the weather is bad enough for you to stay home but you're not offering this to me and my coworker? No problem Today I ain't doing anything

I posted to legal advice but I’m just angry right now. I’m a Washington state exempt employee meaning I’m a salary employee and not hourly or in a union. I work at a community college, and our new supervisor informed us that exempt employees are not allowed to take lunch breaks or any breaks. Up until this point, everyone in my department has been taking their lunch breaks or leaving early if they had to skip it due to constant meetings and other chaotic things coming our way. Am I wrong to think I deserve an hour lunch break when my shift is 8am – 5pm? Am I just being emotional? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills listening to these people.

Sorry Dyslexic The one time i sit down to chat with colleges who do it for over 20 mins every day ( allowd but frown upon for extended periods of time, preschool teaching) and i get pulled up on it! And the college involved in pulling me up is a main contributor to the sitn and chatting. Do i fight it or just let it pass as bad timing on my part?? Feeling real annoyed as i am not ever known for sitting n chatting and only one person out of five agree with me

(I guess a lil vent post) Been lately feeling like a failure because I dropped an entire career essential for a job that I honestly like a lot mainly because everyone else my age and high school is making so much more and seems so content. My job has WFH 4/5 days and hella overtime but the pay is average (in NY). I LOVE it but 44k in NY is definitely not enough where I can feel comfortable. Saw the job opportunity and dipped from original career path (Education) where I would’ve made almost double (NY like the only area that pays well for education). Thing is, while I was interning at schools, I found myself abused by admins and overworked to the BONE. I found myself forfeiting my entire week for the sake of grading and lesson making and it drove me insane, often finishing at-home work mere hours…

I'm ready for revolution man fuck all this shit

Title. Would things change for the better or get worse?

So I had a doctors appointment today and it had gaps between ultrasounds and CT scans, seeing the doctor and then a social worker / diabetes specialist. My boss expected me to come in and stay later, I declined and said I’ll be in tomorrow because it was a difficult day talking with the doctor. In exchange he said I needed to meet with the district manager, the assistant manager and himself. He knew in advance I had this long appointment and was gonna be late. This just seems so blown up, my job has high volume events to manage and because I wasn’t there to prepare I’m making his department look bad. Maybe I’m just venting, but I know this is bogus.
