She is actually so serious
Fired for discussing pay at work
I started working for a pizza delivery joint near my college campus about a week ago. Today I got a text from my manager saying that had to let me go because on my second shift I was talking about wages with a fellow employee who said that if we didnt get any tips for our deliveries then we didn't get any compensation for money we missed. In response to this i said very politely something to the effect of ” I'm going to keep an eye on my pay stubs then and make sure that I'm getting what I supposed to get and if I find a decrepancy I'll bring it up with management.” Two days pass and I am woken up from a post test nap in me and my girlfriends dorm saying that I was being fired because of my opions on labor and payment laws. Am…
Posted this on here and the other related sub. However for some reason it got removed. I want everyone to see just how much money these companies have so that when we hear them say “we cant afford it” we know they are lying. Lets spread this so that everyone knows just how much they are robbing from the working class. Sorry if youve seen it before. Lets first look at Apple Apple has 154,000 workers, so we take that number and multiply it by the $100 per hour raise, then multiply that by 2080 which is hours per work year if you work 40 hours a week for the 52 weeks. 154,000 x $100 x 2080 = $32,032,000,000. This is how much it would cost for them to pay their employees the $100 on top of current wages. Again this includes ALL employees and assumes they all work full…
I didn't get benefits, so I wasn't planning to seek professional medical care to treat it. I was in my early 20s, and thought I could sleep off anything. My barback(former EMT) saw it, ditched his shift, and dragged me to the hospital. I coughed up enough blood to fill a tall Starbucks cup in the 15 minute drive. It turned out to be pneumonitis, which is very similar to pneumonia. If it hadn't been for that saint of a man, I probably would have either lived with serious lung damage for the rest of my life, or *fucking died*. We would have both been fired if that manager hadn't run out of friends to hire. That manager was also, in my opinion, the reason that the establishment shut down. Bars have a high failure rate, it's true. This bar was lucky enough to start in a high-traffic area.…
first of all, to every single person that says these words, fuck you in the most impolite way i can manage. i am 19. i graduated highschool less than a year ago. i have not been able to afford jack shit since i graduated and moved out. i don’t even live in an apartment because god knows even if me and my partner work full time we can’t even afford the lowest priced studio apartments. we live at their parents house and still can barely afford anything. it took me FIVE MONTHS to find a job that paid enough for me to be able to live. to be able to afford my college, to be able to afford my bills, to be able to afford to EAT. not even enough to live on my own. five months. and it’s still a job that i know will over work me into…
