Can they make you use PTO to cover days the business is closed for holiday?

My partner works in a medical office for a very large hospital system. They were completely closed for Memorial Day. Their rules are that you either have to use your own PTO to cover the “day off”, or you have to work four 10 hour shifts the rest of the week to make up the 8 hours. This just doesn't seem right to me. Can anyone with more knowledge tell me if this is a normal practice?

Should I get payed for having a mandatory bus ride for parking at my work

I’m starting work at an airport and we aren’t allowed to park near it for legal reasons so we have to park in a lot about 15 minutes away and take a shuttle to work and there is no work around for this. My question is since it mandatory should I be getting compensation for this time? Also if this isn’t the place for this could someone help redirect me thank you in advance

How long do I wait for an interview call?

Recruiter reached out to me to schedule a phone interview. It has been 30 minutes (which is what she said I should expect the call to last) and still no call. I emailed her 5 minutes past the start time and I have not received an email back or a call. Next moves? (I’m not super in love with this job lol).

fired after sharing about applying to other jobs

I got fired from a job after I told my supervisor I was applying to other jobs. Unfortunately this was my first job out college, so I didn’t know I was not supposed to share the information. I have email proof of my desire to quit before I was firedand I was wondering if there is any way for me to take legal action.

Difficult one

Hi all. I’m a 25 year old from male from the U.K. and I have worked since I was 16. I have never had an issue with working long hours or shitty jobs as I’m used to it. I come from quite a lower class family, however, I do have ambitions. Mainly to be happy. I’ve worked a few jobs in my short time, tyre fitter, shop supervisor, sales advisor, security. I’ve always liked the idea of being a working man and providing for myself and my girlfriend. But as of recent I’ve had 2 pretty shit diagnosis of type 1 diabetes and epilepsy. Having to manage these two have taken their toll. I’m constantly exhausted, constantly day dreaming about the day I won’t have to drag myself around for 10 hours until going home to appreciate the silence. I don’t know if I’m depressed, or if I’m naturally feeling…
