Antiwork

Hey everyone. I'm in an interesting situation with my employer, a private university. I posted last week explaining that the majority of my team had been fired on the spot. I've since learned that the external firm brought in to replace them doesn't employ a designer or developer, giving myself and my remaining coworker a bit of leverage. We're now being told to return to the office for a few days a week after being fully remote for the last two years. I've already voiced my opinion that without an internal team to reunite with, there's little to no reason for us to be on campus. I have an upcoming meeting in which I'm considering giving an ultimatum (let me remain fully remote or fire me) and I want to know what kind of repercussions I could be looking at it if I go through with it. I've read on…

Hello All, I'm asking for a raise in my job that is currently denying me insurance and fulltime status. I'm fighting for full time status and trying to get our finance committee (made up of boomers) that what I'm being paid isn't sustainable income. After taxes and healthcare costs, I make 12.31 an hour. This is with a master degree in the field that I'm working in. I'm 5 hours away from fulltime status. When I requested a raise previously to afford health care, I was told to work more. ​ Anyway, drafting a petty letter. Please give me your best credible sources for this

Just because I took a couple leaves at the start of the month. Is this shit even legal?

E.g Employer wasted your time there should be compliant file and compensation. ​ Employer cancels the interview on your scheduled interview. ​ Employer mistreatment towards neurodiversity with people that don't have social skills but can do the job.

Not sure if this is really the place for this but, does anyone know jobs that are great for staying at home and don’t require as much commitment? I struggle a lot with getting out and having the energy to function. I’m hoping something I can do at home, semi in my control will help me a lot. I’m 18 rn and live with my mom and she’s been pushing for me to try and get some kind of work bc we are struggling a lot to afford basic needs. My mom and I both struggle a lot with our ADHD so she hasn’t had consistent work much either. Anything online that you know doesn’t require much work experience would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. My last job was food service and I had to quit because of how awful that shit made me feel. Also note: my mom has…

If you were terminated 10 mins before your shift and boss tells you return all the equipment by 48 hours and drop it off in the mailroom office. Would you drop it off or would you have someone pick it up? Place has a huge turnover rate especially for my position and my coworker would snitch on me for every little thing. She and my manager would micromanage me. Coworker and I get called in the office and boss says Im terminated. Tells coworker to stand when I pack my personal belongings. When the boss broke me the news, I felt humiliated and when I back to my cubicle, I told the coworker I need a few minutes to gather my thoughts. But she said she is supposed to stay there until I grt my belongings out of the office. No one even said goodbye or good luck… But I'm…

So I work at a branch of grocery stores under Kroger. A worker had to leave because he was sick. At the same time, we had to clean more because of some health inspection stuff. Okay no biggie. Higher up comes up and tells me if I can stay longer. I said no because I have school assignments to work on. This did not sit well with her. She told me I have to send her my school schedule and she was giving me plenty of notice. It’s company policy that I have to stay longer when asked to stay. I was going to retort “Well my school work won’t do itself even with “plenty of notice” unless I can stop work now and do my homework. I don’t owe you my personal time. I have a busy life outside of this job.” Instead I said yeah sure. I’m not…

I work for one of the two major pet stores. I groom dogs and get paid hourly+ commission+ tips. I work in one of the oldest stores and our crap is falling apart. Everytime we have a DM over or something they promise us equipment and never follow through. Despite this I have some of the best numbers in the district. I have had the best numbers for three years. I'm not going to get into the runaround they have been giving me about making pro groomer. I make the numbers but never get it. So I take a lot of breaks. Yeah I know it pisses the cashier's off, but I have a different job then them and I have to manage my time (2-4 hours a groom depending on the dog). So I start getting this shit about breaks and how it's stealing time. Except I have to…
