Antiwork

Since I now work for the government now and have Memorial Day day off, I've spent the morning scrolling Reddit, as one does. I keep seeing in this sub “HR is not your friend, HR is not your friend, HR is not your friend.” It's not incorrect, and frankly, I've said the selfsame before myself. But I did want to share the time a HR professional did me an actual, personal solid. I work in healthcare. Healthcare likes to use the , “How would you feel if your grandma got subpar care?” to keep employees doing more and more for less and less with less and less. I had worked at what is called a critical access hospital for 10 years, taking on additional duties throu the years as I became Clinical Manager, then Clinical Manager+scheduler, then Clinical Manager +scheduler +Pharmacy Operations Manager. Over the 10 years and multiple roll…

Don’t really care if I get fired, it’s so fucked up to take away your rest after already giving forty hours. Fuck them. Got a text ‘ETA?’ and didn’t even respond.

I want to work in a factory, because I have PTSD from working in customer service, but don't know if I should.

My manager texted me “hey, i heard you quit i was wondering why?” And when i told her proceeded to say this. After i blocked her number she proceeded to text me on what i only assume is textnow (or an equivalent” I find it extremely unprofessional and rude. Apparently she has had a history of losing her cool like this. Fazolis TN

I sometimes read this sub and feel like there are people who just don’t want to work. I feel em. I rather not work too; my question is if I have a job that say takes care of people and that the work is hard and demanding but I’m paid well, that’s not the anti work you are talking about right? How do you all envision anything needed getting done? I feel my questions are all over the place. Would you say this sub is anti-exploitation? Thanks reading. Not sure what I am asking.

Looking for a part time job right now and maybe 1 out of 20 will say the wage (which is always minimum). I’m here to work for money damn it, I don’t care about your company culture and 10% discount. What the hell do you think a part time job is even for? Sick of this shit!

Why does every work place feel like I’m reliving high school? The cliques, the drama, the gossip, constant back stabbing. I work in a freaking homeless shelter, this isn’t glamorous or anything. And yet so many of my colleagues act like there some big pay raise or bonus waiting for them for being an asshole to everyone else. We’re a non-profit funded by the province, there’s barley a cost of living increase. I just want to help people in need and live a quiet life.

Now, of course, you'd never use the personal phone, address or email address to send CEOs and politicians to say send them letters reminding them that they need to be less shitty or encourage people to do so. That would be protesting and, as we know, we are all good little peasents and would never find creative yet still non violent ways to protest. Especially not in a more organized fashion. But yes, science, how do we find this info?
