Antiwork

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?

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.

I’m kind of curious, and would like to know what everyone’s opinion on him is

We have been shortstaffed for the last few months. I work at a satellite site, scheduling my own appointments at a nonprofit.

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?

I'm looking for book recommendations from marxism to modern literature on Anti Work (basically anything people from this reddit may find interesting).

I work at a warehouse that manufactures vinyl and aluminum fencing products and sells to contractors, companies, etc. We have a lot behind the warehouse, kind of like a backyard if you will, filled and with our products. Well where I’m at (Midwest USA) there is still a lot of snow on the ground and more importantly, a TON of ice. My small 4’11 (149.5 cm) older Hispanic coworker goes outside to get something and ends up slipping and falling due to the ice. Goes to urgent care and has a hairline fracture in her hand at the base of her thumb. Our safety manager basically avoided talking to her, having me translate, and never asked if she was okay. Had to hunt him down for an incident report paper. They take advantage of the fact that she doesn’t speak English. Then they kept telling her not to bother with…

I work for myself and create videos for businesses looking to advertise or launch a product/place etc. I get emails from time to time from voiceover artists offering their services. Today I got one from an American who couldn't stress enough that she was “non-union” as if that would make any difference to me in the UK who is a member of a union myself has a partner who is in a teachers union has a parent in a healthcare union, a brother in a trades-person union; and an uncle in a retail workers union. “My name is [redacted], and I am a full-time, non-union voice over talent. I provide high quality professional voice overs for companies such as Hewlett-Packard, Heineken, Volkswagen, Versace, Virgin Orbit, Marriott International, Farmers Insurance and Hilton Hotels & Resorts to name a few. I am easy to work with, prompt, reliable, non-union and I make…
