Need advice: Co-worker has this habit of mentioning things that are obvious or repeating information to me. It is throwing me off. How do I deal with this?

I am more senior than my co-worker and I can say that I have a good understanding of our work flows. My co-worker sends me direct messages almost everyday saying the things that are already obvious and are known. Am I the asshole for feeling this way? It makes me ask myself, am I doing something for this person to think that he needs to inform me of something obvious? Or reiterate something that has already been said? I was also given the role of managing our tasks, but he rarely follows them and usually do things his own way. What should I do?

one of the best ways to send CEO’s into rage

the thing rich people/CEOs hate the most is being publicly insulted/humiliated. they have gotten used to being “Gods” who can bully and abuse others but nobody is allowed to shittalk them. luckily with platforms like tiktok, i can literally show a middle finger to some CEO and say “lol suck my carrot dude i work from home” and since tiktok is owned by china….nobody cares. here's an example video i put on youtube https://www.youtube.com/shorts/NaWUR1QLLS4 you should be doing it every day, just to keep them down and remind them we are not gonna take their shit anymore. Everytime i see some CEO blabbing about ending WFH i immedietly reply “i work from home suck my carrot dude” and show him a middle finger

Boss threatening to not pay me for the past month??

So for some context: I’ve only been working there since early March. I get along well with all my colleagues and have only had one sick day which was from covid. I’d already handed in my notice (I’m just done with hospitality for a while) and this Thursday was originally meant to be my last day but I agreed to push it back to Sunday 3rd June to help them out. I’d come in to the cafe on Saturday with my mum as I’d been meaning to show her how great the food is, and yeah- to make the most of my staff discount ! The next day I had a 9-5 shift but I was slightly worried as it’s deadline season at uni so I’ve got a lot of essays due. I text the work group chat to ask if anyone finishing earlier would be willing to swap so…

I was asked to change my hair color from dark purple to Black while other people were allowed to have colorful hair. (different races than me) I don’t want to think that their race has anything to do with it but it seems obvious.

I just don't understand why I need to color my hair if they don't have to there seems to be no equality in the workplace….

Many of us just want to work in peace

This might just me ranting based on my personal current situation but many of us just want to work. My assistant just wants to work in peace but our management is making this place too toxic for her and I to continue working. We have literally doubled our production in the last 5 years while our staff has been reduced from 5 to just 2 and till now my assistant was happy here because the management was toxic only to me and I blocked anything from them to reach her. But all this is changed now because they're directly harassing her and playing politics. We are both looking for other work but there isn't many options out there in my country but eventually, we will both go and who will be at a loss? Us the employees who just wants to do good work and will continue to do so…

What’s the worst “gift” you’ve been given by an employer?

I’m constantly reminded of the last company I worked where my holiday bonus was a Costco winter jacket with the company logo embroidered on it, with the sleeves about 5” too short for me. When I rejected it, they attempted to bill me for it for wasting their wonderful gift.
