Antiwork

I work for a huge medical foundation. At the family practice I work at we are completely understaffed. No attempt whatsoever to hire additional staff has been made. So the staff that is left is expected to do the work of two people for the same pay. Don't forget, we're also “heroes”. I have the bumper sticker they mailed me as proof. /s. So our lovely, poorly qualified manager decided to implement a “no overtime no exceptions” rule. She said all work had to be completed before leaving, but absolutely no overtime (even though the company is literally saving about $200k a year at our office because we are so understaffed, but paying 15 minutes of OT a few times a week was unacceptable). So staff started clocking out and staying 10-60 minutes after, unpaid, to show their loyalty. The manager was completely aware of this. I have screen shots…

dread going to work, feel burnt out & it’s only been 7 months at this job. the pays not bad, and the work isn’t to difficult. it’s the first job that i had to travel a lot for, not sure if that’s playing a part in my feelings. horrible at quitting jobs (bad anxiety lead me to pretty much leaving without notice at my previous job) i’m just lost and drained shit sucks

I've been working a this job I'm at for about 2 years now. I have given them my all. I've come into work every time someone called out. I'm always early. I go above and beyond. Work when when I'm sick. Hell I worked through my own grandmother's funeral and watched it through FB video chat. Sadly I had the audacity to call off work a couple weeks ago because I was so sick I was crying in pain and couldn't even stand. So now I'm on probation. I can't look for a job in the same industry, because if I do I'm on unpaid suspension until I accept or decline any offers. I have no other skills. No other experience and I can't afford not to have work. I give them my best but it's like nothing I do is right. My manager called me to come in for…

So I just switched to the insurance my employer offers, sounded great and whatever. I have been waiting for an insurance card for “15 days” AKA a month or more. I am running out of/ already ran out of some medications that I NEED to sleep/ function. I literally can’t pick them up because I have no insurance info. HR just says it’s on the way, check in the stupid portal and it should be there. I see nothing there. In fact it still says I’m in open enrollment and I should contact HR, who isn’t helpful at all. It is literally Feb, why would I still be in open enrollment. Really frustrated. I’m ready to just stop all my medications and just not go to any doctors because I don’t know what else to do. All from a shit job that I need the medications for so I can…

My (23F) boyfriend (24M) is a truck driver for a small trucking business. This is a family-owned business, meaning his boss is his father. I have been filing my own taxes for the past five years, boyfriend's dad has been “taking care of” his taxes for the past five. We are looking to move and hopefully beginning to plan for big things, like buying a home and maybe starting our own business. With that being said, my boyfriend asked me to help handle his taxes and finances this year. Now that I am working to file his taxes (1099-NEC), it really sounds from the outside that he should be on a W-2… A lot of exemptions that I am aware of aren't applicable because he doesn't pay for repair, fuel, or other truck expenses, nor does he own the truck… He receives no benefits and is paid from one source,…

Applying to jobs all over, finally got one that took an interest in me. Before the last round of interviews they wanted to do a full background check (no mention of any offer at all up to this point). Looking at every piece of info they wanted, I spotted some interesting stuff in the employment form they sent. What if I ask you for references from past employees? https://preview.redd.it/ojs3oqs4doh81.png?width=706&format=png&auto=webp&s=da72eda5caaccc1981d69158243a887e2752a21a

I’m a 6th year English teacher who’s tutored students for the ACT and SAT. I also spent 3.5 years working as an editor at my university’s writing center, plus I interned as an editor for a publishing company for 9 months part time. Despite this, I cannot get a part time/freelance copywriter job. Can someone say that I worked as a remote copywriter for 6 months at their company? I have all the necessary skills but can’t get jobs because I don’t technically have the “copywriter” experience on my resume. I’m losing money every month with my teacher’s salary and really need this second gig. (I know it’s shady).

After working (being exploited by the worst pow i’ve ever known) for 2 and a half years for 800€ a month, I applied to a well paying job that is really interesting after learning the opening from a good friend as her teammate ! Wish me luck, it could literally turn my life around !
