I finally put in my two weeks notice

Whether I end up working it out completely is up to my boss. I know I'm going to get a barrage of messages in the morning when she walks into the office and sees my notice sitting on the desk. Like others, I used to enjoy my job. Well, I enjoyed my fast food job as much as one can love a fast food job. When I started I got full time with overtime, I got the days off I wanted, I was willing to learn and fix any mistakes I made. Eventually we get to today, I'm scheduled 32 hours this week, I'm only getting one day off I really want, and instead of getting coached I get yelled at and written up. I've been working there for almost a year. I was promised bonuses and a raise which never came. I told my boss that I can't survive…

Need advice, looking for unemployment before I get fired. Long story; based in USA in NJ at state agency and have history of disability that HR is aware of

My job has been a little weird over the years but let me try my best to condense it. I was a sort of nepotism hire because someone I knew was aware of the ceo. I have no direct contact with the CEO and since this is a state agency he has recently been replaced by another guy but this has not been fully public knowledge to every employee yet. I got hired right as we were heading into locked down, I worked for two weeks and was barely trained as my supervisors had nothing for me to do usually. Once we were in lock down, there was 0 training, my boss at the time also was a new hire and pretty much useless. I had nothing to do during lock down but wrack up more depression. Once we were back in full time much later then most people in…

Boss called 21 times….

I am assistant manager for a major chain & had to call in last week due to a major emergency with my daughter. I told my boss (store manager) the circumstances & that I wouldn't be able to do my shift because we were waiting on an ambulance. While in the ER, I was not allowed to have my phone with me (rules if you're in for psych issues). I went out to check my phone about 8 hours later (the next morning) & saw my boss called me – 21 times! They also left a text stating, “I'm going to keep calling until I hear from you.” I'm extremely offended by this. Am I wrong to be mad?

Full Time Hours but not Full Time Status…

Gotta be real y’all, I’m at my wits’ end. I’ve been working full time hours for the last six months at a job I’ve been in for two years and at the company total for 3.5 years. I’ve been working full-time to patch the hole left in my team of 8 by a full-time employee who was in a horrible accident and has since been incapacitated. That’s not the problem. The problem is that I left another team to join this one under the promise of more money. The other team got the exact same raise I did joining my current one after I left so realistically, I’ve only received one raise of about $.60 in three years. Still not considered full-time status with the company either so I don’t get any of the benefits that people who are full-time get. I’m mad as hell and quite frankly, overworked. Between…
