Antiwork

Got an email a few days later saying that my experience does not align with job requirements. Keep in mind on the job description they stated that “we will train you as this is an entry level job.” Am I in the wrong for already being dead out of hope??

Lol I remembered this and thought this might be a good place to share. 23 now. Right before I turned 22 I was working in a smoke shop, loved everything (besides selling burners) and quickly began giving tasks to re-organize the store, create custom packages, and choose some inventory. (I was basically being a high level manager for this lady and getting paid under min since it was under the table). Eventually she asked me to go on a work trip ab 2 hours away with her to open a new story. Went on ab 3 dif days, designed this store layout and organization, all the shelved and such up while the owner talked on the phone, walked around the town handing out flyers and goodie bags and coupons I had made, stayed on opening day to help the clerk and get customers feeling comfy and take inventory requests. I…

By reading what I’m about to write, I’m sure I sound like I know the answer. In the very beginning of this year I got a job as a front desk associate at a small hotel. The perks is it was closeby, relatively quiet, and more or less I got along with the people working there. But soon after I got the job, the manager left and the owner over the building was calling the shots for a while. We started getting calls asking if we were turning into a homeless shelter or not. I wasn’t notified. Soon it made the paper that our hotel wasn’t going to be a hotel anymore. Basically the staff were the last to know and it was confirmed very late in the game. The owner never gave us a direct answer when we asked, So now people from the state are running the show…

I have been trying to get out of Retail while pursuing an engineering degree. Today marks the fifth job I have been offered over $30 an hour if just drop out school and work for them full-time. I have the skill to do some trade work, but I want to be an engineer. Why the **** can't I just work 25-35 hours a week. I don't get the 40-60 hour required work weeks, why not let a part timer in. I want to work and build more skill, but still go to school. Retail doesn't build any more skill than I already have, and the pay is lacking. This is so frustrating.

Sorry if it’s not allowed to ask question here, but I have been working 2/5 days from home and it’s one of the best things that has happened to me. I was able to spend so much more time with my cat who was my only emotional support during early Covid. I am this close to renegotiate terms with management by offering to lower my salary so I can work hybrid. Should I go through with it?

I've been at this company for 6 years. This is not the first time I've had issues with my employer. It's a long list but a few note worthy incidences are, being told I need to sacrifice my personal time to get my job done, not being reimbursed for certain company payments i fronted the original bill, and nothing being done about my personal property being stolen from a company vehicle. Onto today's issue. I work for a small company that employs less than a dozen people. Recently my boss has taken on a workload that is impractical for a company as small as ours to complete in a timely manor. 2 people have been working on the project for a week. The original scope of the work was supposed to be 3 weeks for the 1st phase to be completed. The deadline for this has been pushed up to…
