Antiwork

My roommate (not on Reddit) is currently working for USAA but was hired through a temp agency in March '21. He lived in Vegas, NV when he was hired, but lives in CA now (since April '21). The job is 100% WFH. Recently, a boss of his told him his IP address showed he was in CA not NV.

Changes the order to what she said she wants and takes it to the kitchen. When she comes back to the table with the food the lady tells her “oh never mind we don't want it it'll probably be bad by the time we get home” so she doesn't pay…

I work as a handyman in a retirement community in VA. They allowed me to live here at a severely reduced rent for six months while I work here. The whole process was sketchy and rushed and I admit I should have taken more precautions but these days we all know how hard it is to find an offer like this. Well the idea was I would be able to fix maintenance issues for the community when no other crew member was available. The past four weeks of my life since starting here have been an absolute rollercoaster. They dug up my personal life, forced me to talk about my sexual orientation, tried to force my wife and I into a separation (whole other story) have refused to train me while simultaneously riding my ass about not learning or pulling my weight. I was keeping my head down and going…
