Antiwork

Junior in college with a CS major here. For background, I find myself feeling pressure from multiple sides to get an internship because thats supposed to make me more employable. Thing is I don't really WANT to do an internship, period. They sound nice, really. I could work remotely and make decent money for the Summer. (Some offers actually pay less than retail and food service now but I disregard those.) However I just don't feel like sacrificing a whole Summer break that I could be using to visit family, travel to a few places on my bucket list, and generally just get a break from coding I'm already burnt out on. It's not like I won't have 40 years to gain experience afterwards so I'm in no rush. But no, apparently not interning makes me unemployable. In fact, I should actually spend countless hours of my free time “coding…

Please be kind as I'm recovering and trying to navigate – while prepping myself the best I can. I'm in an at will employment status and recently has to be on leave. My employer has shown questionable behaviors and dishonorable ethics when it comes down to treating their employees. My performance has been positive and recognized but I've been vocal about the lack of support in my project and while voicing this concern, seen as “the problem” by my employer. They've placed me in a situation that is isolating and I've been neglected and overworked. It is possible that my boss may let me go or fire me for “any reason” when I come back to work. Here are my questions: Can I say “I quit” while he is trying to fire/let me go? So that it looks better in my employment record? I worry about how this will affect…

I’m 16 years old and I’m being paid below minimum wage and during my shifts I always get blamed for shit I didn’t do. I have a shift tomorrow. My parents are gonna be so mad if I quit so idk what to do. They think I’m being too picky and complain too much

Long story, but I'm currently stuck at a contract job I'll have to stick with till the end of the year before I can leave. During the interview, the partner whom I'm currently working for asked some suspicious questions, which I should have noticed as red flags. What do you think of working late nights and weekends? What would you do if your boss scolds you, will you cry? And lo behold, since I've started for around two months, he's proven to be a massive douche. Speaking in a hostile manner, always dismissing what I have to say, making uncomfortable conservative comments and micromanaging every aspect of my tasks. I have to come in on Saturdays to work as well altho it's absolutely unnecessary since he has some massive trust issues. But I'm requesting for a transfer to a different department. Hopefully the people in charge will grant it since…

I'm not sure if this goes here, but I read this reddit a lot and feel like this is similar to what I've read on here before. I'm an RA for my university and for any of yall you have been RA's you know that it is ROUGH. Especially now during the pandemic and the mask mandate getting lifted in some places. Mask policy violations are one of the main things we have to deal with and most of the time the residents see it as a joke. I've dealt with so much backlash and aggressive students that my mental health has definitely taken a toll. At some point earlier this semester I brought up my struggles, along side another RA friend, to our supervisors and that was probably one of the worst decisions I could have ever made for my mental health. Over the past, I think barely a…
