Antiwork

I build some of the world best audio transducers. Today we had a company meeting. We were told the last month was the busiest ever in company history. We were told we all deserve a big thank you. I’ve been told by multiple people that my hard work is going noticed and people/engineers are coming to me and telling me they’ve heard how diligent I am. This is an extremely detailed job with tons of memorization. The highest quality is checked every step of the way. I get paid same as a fast food worker during record company profits. I have multiple degrees. I love this job except for the pay. But I’m definitely leaving soon if they don’t pay more.

I’m also assuming that the workers who leave are mostly in the upper half of the second tax bracket, or lower half of the third. I’m not really asking about the plausibility of the situation or about the fate of ex-pat workers. I’m interested in exploring what would happen to the US if it lost a sizable portion of these workers.

Hello antiwork community, I just accepted a job offer at a hospital in Oregon which listed in its job description that a hire on bonus was included (but no specific amount mentioned). Today I was informed by the recruiting manager that the hire on bonus was discontinued for all jobs on January 31st and I missed it by a few days. However, when going through current job postings on their site there are still job descriptions that mention a hire on bonus. Is this acceptable and is there any way I can get the bonus? Any thoughts/comments are appreciated!

I have a coworker that asks me silly questions. She seems to do it on purpose because she’s not stupid. For example, she asked me how to use our company credit card. She’s worked here for 25 years. She has used the card before. Then she asked me which key was the pooled vehicle key, we only have one and it’s a Ford, the key says Ford on it. She doesn’t particularly like me and that is a known fact. I just don’t understand the motive? Why do that? Is she wanting me to be rude? I’m genuinely curious on the psychology side. Is this something she’s doing to me on purpose? Or am I just reading into it?

Finally put in my 2.5 weeks yesterday which was looong overdue. I’ve been at my job for almost 2.5 years (minus the month I was laid off at the start of covid ). Some background: I’ve never gotten benefits, pto, insurance, etc. and have always felt like I’ve been underpaid. I get paid hourly and have gotten a total of $3/hr raise since I’ve been here. There’s also been times where I’ve been very much overworked and felt extremely burnt out, with no pto making it really hard to take a break for myself. I slowly started job hunting a few months after starting but with my mental health not being in the best place it’s been very challenging to work and job hunt full time. Over the past year I’ve always started up an Etsy shop while wfh which has started becoming pretty successful. All of those factors finally…

TLDR: I have chronic migraines that make me miss work. I was written up for these abcenses, told I would be fired if I continued to miss work, and didn’t recieve our monthly bonus because of it. Is that legal (USA)? Full story: I have severe chronic migraines. I’ve been seeing a neurologist for a few years now, and am trying to figure out how to manage them. Without treatment I was having headaches everyday with 3-4 migraines a week. With treatment I currently see ~2 a week. They typically start in the morning right before I wake up or 2-4pm, and more sporadically if certain triggers occur. Because I’m new I can’t qualify for FMLA. So when a migraine occurs on a work day I miss part of the day but do work some that day, but rarely the full day. The time I’m miss is to migraines or…
