I am currently considering leaving my full-time job due to its toxic nature and exploring temporary-to-permanent job opportunities. I have an interview scheduled for tomorrow with a temporary-to-permanent job, and I would like to know the best questions to ask to ensure their intentions of making the position permanent. Although temp-to-permanent jobs pay slightly more than my current job, they do not come with benefits. Therefore, I have calculated that I will be making roughly the same amount, even without paid time off (PTO). I have had negative experiences in the past with temp-to-permanent jobs, where I was only covering for a few weeks for someone who was away for surgery. This experience has taught me the importance of directly interviewing with potential employers to obtain relevant information.

Some context, I've worked for Lowes for 5 years now, and I enjoyed my time here, and all my co workers hate to see me go but understand there's better jobs out there. So for my last week here I decided to treat it like the last day of school and see how much I could get away with. After working for some great bosses, our new one kinda drained all the fun out of the job and really puts everyone on edge, so I decided to blow off some some steam and not give an f on my last week.

How big corps value their employees
I worked under the table when I was 14-15 while going to school. I got super burned out and overworked until I eventually had a nervous breakdown and got caught self harming in the bathroom and was fired. I had been wanting to quit to focus on school for months but my mom said I couldn't because I had to “build up trust”.

Basically what the title says. My company just acquired a competitor and we were told on Friday that our HQ location is changing to where the competitor’s HQ is. I feel as if we just “lost” the merger, I was definitely not expecting us to move HQ location being the acquiring company. My main question is, is this something normal? Does this mean that management values the competitor’s talent more than its own?
