What are you all complaining about the most? Or where are you seeking more clarity? What are your needs?

So I’ve been at my new job going on four weeks and I still have admin access to my old jobs FB pages lol

One of the last things I did at my old job was train the owner's son to make monthly sales advertisements on their business FB pages.. I was very reluctant to do it because the owners family is a bunch of rich d-bags who don't even need to work since their dad is worth 20-50 mil. The owner himself comes into work and browses porn all morning and leaves at noon just to say he went to work(I guess). Every now and then he'll go over some financials with the company president. I just thought it was funny. When I worked there and when people(even some long time employees) quit, the company president would always have us change everything, lock them out of everything to make sure we didn't get hacked or something. But now it's weird. I still have access to everything. I have access to a bunch of…

We are not broke, we’re being robbed! The fact is that we have an out of control military budget and that’s taking away from programs that would better serve our country like universal healthcare, education, infrastructure, etc.

How to get energy to go job hunting?

So I am not overly fond of my job. The expectations are ramping up and we're headed toward a massive event that will likely eff up the next 5-10 years of my industry. I am tired. I want out. Problem is you can't leave without finding a new job first and the job hunt is disgusting. I don't want to take a pay cut (I get paid really well), but I will likely have to. And the job hunt is exhausting; every job post in my field has a hiring req for what I assume is an actual Avenger, no listed pay or hours and requires you to fill out your resume on their shitty website after you submit your actual resume. How do I get energized to try and keep up the fight? I come home after my 12-15 hour shift tired and barely have the energy to heat…

Who would i report the head of HR to?

The head of HR where i work completely sucks. She is always fucking up payroll. She “forgot” Juneteenth was a holiday. (But this isnt the first time she “forgot” about a holiday) she always “forgets” to pay us correctly. (The theory is that shes either fucking the owner or is blackmailing him) I went to the BBB. But they only handle cases of discrimination. Unfortunately, being bad at your job isnt discrimination. I like the people i work with and i think the job would be pretty decent if she didnt work here. We are supposed to get paid at 3pm on Friday. Because she “forgot” about the holiday and because my job refuses to join the 21st century, we do paper checks. Im contemplating finding a new job. But like i said, it wouldnt be a bad if she wasnt here. I dont want to go to my superior,…

Got Written Up for Wearing Cargo Shorts in Summer

Yep. I work for a dealership company doing IT at multiple locations, but my car's clutch unfortunately went up and is currently in the shop. Luckily enough, my job is in walking distance-ish (45 minute walk) so I've been making that work for now. I installed new computers for new employees on Friday, so I thought I would do everyone a favor and come in early to make sure there's no issues with them. I took one step outside and it was HOT. I knew that the thick ass black jeans probably werent the play, so I put on cargo shorts and a belt with my company logo'd polo and was off to work. No one cares about my attire EVER except my brand new boss (who is infinitely worse than my last one. He's ex-military. Enough said.), but he's at headquarters anyways. I got a call later from my…

Works too cheap to even provide a final meal for a long time employee and former manager

We just had a dude who was a former manager leave due to the company pissing him off. They decided that since he worked here a while it would be a good idea to have a farewell meal for him. He have 12 employees on my shift they could literally buy 4 pizzas and have a meal for us. Instead they decided we would have a potluck so the employee have to purchase and cook the meal. This job feels thankless and like they don't care about us at all.

I suck at being a welfare leech

I just can't – I feel guilt and like a burden. I applied to first offered job option that took me, that does no good to me and is a dead end carrier choice, bc I'm just such a slave I guess, and the person who offered the job was nice – lol. Now I gotta wiggle out of it in a creative way, to keep my unemployment-benefits. And I could have taken a 2 week state paid vacation from the my job of searching for a job. I know, the money has to go to military afairs, because some stupid wanabe comb-over tzar with his vodka-for-breakfast boyar harem wants to f-up the rest of the world. But I think we ought to use the options that we have – the wealth will not trickle down by itself, someone needs to help it trickle – or it just gets imploded…
