Antiwork

Hi, I live in a latino country looking to work remotely for someone in the US, and hoping to get paid in USD cause you know, wages in Latin America are a joke In the last few days I got a job offer for a real estate company over there to work as an OSA/ISA, I was very excited cause it finally seemed that I would start getting good money to eventually escape my country, today I was in a meeting with the realtor talking about the contract, the schedule, and whatnot The wage is… 384 USD monthly working from 9:00 a.m to 7:00 p.m, with a 2 hour break at 12:00 p.m, every day, weekends off, and there's going to be a 90-day trial, split into three 30-days parts, where there are goals for each part, and they would be checking on me (with guidance and help) to see…

I worked at a big corporation. Long story short they were trying to deny people the use of the bathroom, unless they were on break. I didn't like how they were running things, so I put in my notice. I looked at my last pay-check, it shows I did not get paid for my last 2 days. I thought maybe that was a simple mistake and it would come on the next pay period. It did not. That day, I emailed HR and the store director that I did not get paid for time worked. I got no response. Because of not getting paid I was not able to pay for my oil, I ran out in the middle of a big snow storm. I had to ask for help from others to be able to pay. This put a lot of strain and distress on us. Advice?

As teachers, we're so used to giving away our knowledge for free. About 10 years ago, I wrote some lesson content for an online educational company, trying to supplement my income with a side gig. My contract paid $50/lesson. I soon realized that it took me the better part of a Saturday or Sunday to write each lesson to the company's standards, do all the wiki formatting, include an assessment for each lesson, and input any required edits. So, I only wrote about 7 or 8 lessons for them before deciding it wasn't a good use of my time. Recently, I visited the site to grab some published writing samples of my work to use for another job application. I was shocked to see that some of the lessons I wrote have been monetized hundreds of thousands of times! Now I'm even saltier that they only paid me $50/lesson! It…

I am so sick of these which the purpose is to have everyone spending all day Sunday prepping and planning. done!
