If the government didn’t let anyone become a billionaire then we wouldnt have amazon, netflix, starbucks the apple products and hundreds of more things that we use that makes out life better or easier.

Is there a law regarding meetings or phone calls outside of work hours? My boss has taken to calling me after I clock out to go over a few details. This is a new job and often it’s just a couple of minutes, so it hasn’t been too bad. But obviously I don’t want to spend much of my off-time talking work.

My dad is an exempt employee for a retail store in CA (LA area). He has worked his way up with the same company for nearly 30 years and is now a store manager. He averages 60hrs/wk plus the time he spends on his days off.

Now that he quit (cannot blame the guy) we’re on our own to try and get this solved but there’s…

hi so i recently got hired at a vet clinic but on my first day there were so many red flags there's no way i wanna stay (will list these out later lol) but they do paper checks so i feel like i can't just ghost them or text i quit and leave it at that. i was gonna stay a couple extra shifts before another place hired me but i don't need the job; in fact i kept my old job at my prior clinic in case my new job was bad (the reason i looked for a new job is bc this one is far away and pay is sad but the manager and coworkers are great and it's not toxic at all) i got an interview for an emergency clinic that will pay more and is no way gonna have all these red flags. so i worked…
