I don’t believe I’m “antiwork” I’m more about getting fair pay and benefits to the people that DO work (Or cannot due to health)

I feel like I'm out of place with a lot of posts. I'm not trying to take anything I didn't earn. I do want the profits I help make to help me back.

Am I dumb for wanting to leave a really good paying job in search of something else that will certainly be a large paycut?

In my area, this job is about as good as it gets for people that don't have any kind of specialized training or anything like that. I HATE it. I seriously have never dreaded going to work as much as I do my current position. I don't really do much while at work, though. I sit on the computer and can browse reddit and facebook most of the day. But the environment and co-workers make it absolutely unbearable for me. I work in a prison. The amount of negativity that I encounter every day is taking a serious toll on my mental health. But I make $31/hr. I have been searching high and low for a remote job but haven't had any luck. I have come to the conclusion that I will most likely have to take a paycut that's close to half of what I am making now… Is…

What can I do about my suspicions about my boss stealing my tips?

So I work at a boba shop and recently my coworkers and I did some digging and math and found out that credit card tips we received is not equivalent to what we calculated. dec 10-dec 23: Recorded total tip amount – 1636 Total hours of all workers – 417.85 1636/417.85 is the Credit Card tip/hour =3.9 I worked 34.26 hrs so that multiplied by 3.9 Credit Card tip rate is $133.6 instead I got 73.66 (because the rate they calculated is 2.15) I tried confronting the owners about it but they got mad that we were looking at “confidential information” i.e gross sales and tips. Which they gave us access to so I do not see how it is wrong for me when they gave me access to it.

my boss tried to steal from me…

Years ago when I was young and naive, I was working in a salon. Every service I provided I made 50 percent on. One day I had done a full set of extensions and color on one person. I had performed the service to the customers specifications. She was happy when she left and tipped me well. Service charge was roughly $300. So I made $150 of that service on my check, taxed. The woman changed her mind and came back the next week having clearly messed them up herself (she cut the hair and teased it and put dye on the ends) demanding a refund. My boss obliged then told me I had to pay her back the 300. I told her no, I only recieved half of that cost. She took it out of the next paycheck. The whole 150. I'm like “what the actual hell?” I called…

Former employer not giving W2, what can I do to file my taxes?

Title states it. I called this morning, was told to leave my name and number and someone would get back to me. Called back about 4 hours after the first call to see if anything had happened. Got asked my name and number again and for my old employee ID number. HR is now closed for the day and haven't heard nothing back. What are my options? I want to file my taxes before the IRS gives me anxiety and paranoia.
