Antiwork

I didn't even know this sub existed until last month but had I known when I was still working at this place, I could go on for hours about the endless bullshit that went on there. For the sake of privacy, lets call this place Hell-mart and my manager SM or sadisitic manager. Now I have had life long spinal issues and when seeking employment, I make this very known. Usually I'm accomoded and we have no issues. At hell-mart, I worked in the back of the store keeping stock and getting shit where it needs to go so while standing most of the day, I'm not putting strain on my back and the job gets done. Eventually our old manager retires or quits, I honestly never found out, and SM takes over as the new manager. I didn't care at first, afterall I just minded my own business and…

My love last year transferred stores for work, moving cross state to do so, he was promised a set schedule and availability. However the past few weeks he's been denied it, so this valentines we won't be together because of it, it's been to the point we barely get 1 day to eachother a week. We talked to his coworkers turns out the main boss is a misandrist, she needed a male worker to do bathroom checks and meet requirements to run the store because she forced/fired the rest, so what we gather is that he transferred store to only be a scapegoat for her and with this preasure is basically being forced to quit. Is there anything we could do about this? Out of a team of 20ish he's literally the guy there besides one guy on nightshift(whom only passes by because he works nights and no one wants…

So in Hungary teachers are planning a big strike cause of unpaid overtime , and low pay. Here there is a thing callled “minimum service” meaning strikers cant just stop working completely in some areas like education. There was an ongoing legal struggle to determine the minimum service as teachers only want to offer sitter service but government wants them to keep teaching. Now they used their extra right gained by covid emergency and decided on the minimum service through an edict, going around the actual laws. Teachers have to look after kids in their own classroom, hold all exam subjects (like maths) and hold 50% of non exam subjects (like art) Baiscally striking has been banned in hungary for teachers. Please spread the word that Hungary is a dictatorship that uses covid emergenc to bring back slavery. (They also banned some ppl like nurses from leaving jobs during the…

Y’all ever have arguments in your head with past bosses who have traumatized you? I quit a job March 2020 with an overweight old Italian boss who loved to scream at me and still now am defending myself in my head to him real dumb.

Just the title. When a man works hard for his wife that is his choice. That does not give him the right to abuse and manipulate the women into doing whatever he desires. The same should be for employers. Just because you pay someone for their time does not mean you can lay out the boundaries for what is and isn't ok. You can't turn around 12 months later with a new contract and say “but you have a choice, you can leave any time you like”. I guess thats the one difference, society thinks we have a choice in this matter. note: wifebeating can be exclusively verbal.

Anyone know of an effort to get changes on US ballots? 26 states have some form of ballot initiatives process where citizens can create or change laws by collecting signatures. I'm no expert in the process. I'm tired of waiting for our representatives to do what we elected them to do and need something tangible that I can hope and fight for.
