If you have unsupervised access to a computer at a job you hate, your job is now to find a new job.

Pretty much title. I’ve done this in the past when I didn’t have access to a computer at home and taken a major step forward. I will warn, that unsupervised access to a computer at an hourly wage job is getting rarer. Make sure you’re 100% okay with losing your current job if you start doing this.

Quit on my first day

Called my boss before my first shift to clarify my wage. Turns out I was going to earn half what I was supposed to. So I quit and listened to him throw a fit over the phone.

Maybe if this subreddit want to not get mocked anymore we shouldn't be so incredibly left wing and saying everything is racist or hateful you can't even have a frog as profile picture in the discord for crying out loud they will ban you.

Replaced by Immigrants

So I’ve worked at a golf course for over 2 years and have been laid off the past 2 years during the winter season. This year, we were all placed in a group message and let know we were being let go because the golf course was approved for an H2B program. We were also made aware that this was something that they have been wanting for a while, which was never mentioned. In fact, my “boss” told us each year that he was working for a higher wage for us. I was just being strung along and lied to. This feels so wrong and borderline illegal. I’ve literally just been trying to get a job at amazon and even they won’t get back to me.

Part Time With Full Time Hours

I've been watching the sub for a while. Finally have something to post about, maybe. So a while back I had a job I actually kind of enjoyed, mostly because of the people. And it was pretty laid back. But I made nothing because I live in a federal minimum wage state. Luckily I live near the NY border and I got a job at a larger warehouse as a case selector. Selectors have to pick at a certain rate to stay employed, I unfortunately could never meet the rate. Turns I like taking my time to do things too much. So they put me in sanitation which still paid okay but was boring. So I went and got yet another job, which is where my issue is. The first red flag was when they hired me and only told me my wage would be close to 15, more than…
