italian antiwork

A page for the italian anti workers. I'll post it in the next post, because i don't know why the bots consider this post spam, without any apparent reason Potrebbe esserci, in Italia (come in qualsiasi altro pese europeo) la percezione che antiwork sia qualcosa di solo “americano”, che non ha niente a che fare con l'europa, qualche moda del momento dagli USA che svanirà presto. Non è così ovviamente, è qualcosa in cui qualsiasi paese è coinvolto e che non va percepito come qualcosa di “lontano da noi”. Condividete esperienze, confrontatevi e discutete di tutto quello che rientra nell'ambito del lavoro e del nostro sistema sociale ed economico. ————————————————————————————————————————————— There could be, in Italy (like in every other european country) the perception that antiwork is something only “american”, that has nothing to do to europe, some trend of the moment from the USA that will soon vanish. It is…

Question about asking for a raise

So I’m 21 and trying to save up enough to move my girlfriend and myself out of her house and I’m making $16.50 (I’ve been in the $20’s at other jobs) but I’m working for a temp agency and about to get hired on and thru the grape vine I’ve heard that they give a tiny bump upon hire but won’t negotiate more, their words were “if you don’t like the amount there’s the door” and I felt like I was in a comfortable position to ask for $18-$20 upon hire (as it’s a struggle just to save a decent amount of money every month) but now I feel like it’s a risky play as they could just tell me to walk… what do I do?

Is it legal for a job to take OT days and make you call off for the rest of the week?

I worked a coupe of days of approved OT, now my job is saying I have to call off because they stopped OT after I worked it. So I have to call off so I won't go into the OT I've already worked.

Should I ask for more money?

We have been shortstaffed for the last few months. I work at a satellite site, scheduling my own appointments at a nonprofit. I have been asked to work at our main site one full day a week to help with the staffinf gap. Does this seem warranted to ask for a raise? I am doing the same duties. But for the inconvenience of having to be pulled from my office, leaving my clients, I do feel like I should be compensated until they no longer need me. For the next two weeks I am the only staff person on schedule to do the duties I do on that one day of the week. Do you think I have a leg to stand on?

Reasons (Other than the obvious) to refuse to use your own vehicle for work. If the job requires a vehicle, always ask “do you provide one?”
