My department recouped an extra $5Mil in invalid deductions from clients. My boss is the only one that said “Thanks”, our corporate Christmas gift was $40, and our Q4 bonus was half the target.

Accidentally managing Google buisness profile

I found the buisness profile of my workplace, “accidentally” clicked on “claim this buisness profile”. I know manage the google buisness profile of my workplace and have no clue what to do with it. I hate the management btw. Can I get in trouble? Can I mess with it?

Entrepreneurship is like a dart game at a carnival. The rich kids get unlimited tries. The middle-class kids: maybe one try. And the impoverished kids get to only serve the food and to clean up the trash.

We are emailing all our customers to advise of an impending 7.5% price increase and in defiance of all expectations and logic everyone’s pay is going up by the same amount.

I’m still utterly flabbergasted. I was getting the “actually here’s why it’s right and good that you should tell them” from our FD and I joked “I assume everyone’s wages will be going up by the same amount?” He hummed and hawed a bit and said well maybe not that amount and the CEO cut in and said no, they’ve decided to go with it across all staff, and asked me not to tell anyone yet.

coworker has a seizure and gets suspended

my coworker had a seizure 6 months ago, this was about 2 years after his first. This one wasn't as bad, but he displayed almost like he was having a stroke. He remembers nothing from when the event started until he regained consciousness in an ambulance on the way to the hospital. He did say and act very weird at the onset of the event before he eventually hit the ground. Apparently he put his arm around a go-worker trying to help him at one point and kissed her on the cheek. He's was mortified to find this out when he returned to work 6 weeks later (after getting medical clearance to return to work). Today HR is coming down to tell him the results of the 'investigation' and that he's going to be suspended as punishment for breaking policy. His union is no help. I'm so angry I want…
