My mental health was fine during unemployment and now that I am looking for jobs again, I have been acting strange again and having weird diseases.

I have been through plenty of toxic jobs and the last one was so detrimental to my mental health that I have been unemployed for 14 months. The current state of the economy also has something to do with it though. Many are unemployed so I have a lot of competition. I was diagnosed with anxiety and depression. I needed the time off to really heal and to visit all the doctors and therapists I needed to see. I got a lot better. But my fear of working actually increased that way. Everything I built for myself could be destroyed by a job again. I am even only looking for a part time for that reason, so work can have the least impact possible. But I have also been having weird illnesses. Strange migraines, strange long covid since december, strange throat aches and weird blood tastes in my mouth. My…

I know why you’ll never get free healthcare. Because of big pharma and big sugar/grains.

It’s quite easy to see the connections from over here. (Sweden). You all eat like crap, and big sugar still has convinced you that fat is bad and that cereals are a part of a nutritious breakfast. Your healthcare costs would break your country – and since both parties are in the pocket of big pharma (who wants you to keep eating rather than change life style) and big sugar/wheat – you’ll never get free healthcare. You all are just consumers – not citizens. The country does not care about you – at – all. But it’s easy to fix: unlaw lobbying in its current form. Have all contributors politically being transparent. Get big corp out of your news discussions.

The truth about workplace injuries

You are faking an injury so you can slack off and get paid. Does anyone else automatically feel like nobody believes them when they suffer a work related injury? For some reason, the few times I have, or even if i have called in sick, when I come back to work I feel like everyone is talking shit about me behind my back. I may just be paranoid, but like… in every place I ever worked, if someone takes a day off… people talk shit about them. And then when I do, people tell me “it’s all good bro we know you wouldn’t fake it”. Are they telling the people I hear them talk shit about, the same thing? Are they gaslighting me? Ooooooor should I lay off the weed?

A toxic coffee shop I used to work for has now fired every person I used to work with

I got hired a couple years ago, and got promoted to manager and hired some people. The owners kept saying they were going to give me the passwords for the accounts to order product and show me how to do it, but they never did, so I just kept doing other managerial stuff. Finally they called me into the office and said because I wasn’t doing the ordering, I wasn’t doing my job and they were going to demote me if I didn’t start “showing more initiative” and said it was my fault I hadn’t been given the ordering info yet. I just told them I was going to work for them at all anymore. After that, they promoted two people I hired to be co-managers but soon found one of them to be too difficult to work with (she had been trying to get them to follow health standards…
