Is Domino’s trying to end work?

Just saw a commercial for a new domino's promotion where they will “tip” you, the customer, $3 for ordering carryout online… Not sure how they expected this to be received but to me it says they are blatantly admitting they don't want to pay an employee to deliver your pizza so they will pay you to “deliver” it yourself…

Boss not paying me for working from home

So, I hope this isn't too off topic for the sub, but you guys seem to know a lot about labor laws and employee empowerment so I thought I'd ask here. I'm a landscape designer, basically all I do is draw on my iPad and create nice little illustrations that depict the species and arrangement, etc. to help close the deal on a landscaping job. I do a lot of work from home to try and meet deadlines. I am very new, and so the first week I really wasn't going to push it about getting every single hour, as I didn't wanna risk pissing my boss off and most of it was experimentation and playing around on the iPad, figuring out the process. But now, I find I'm still doing a lot of work from home (about 5 hours most weeks). I got COVID a while back and worked…

Punching in isnt the beginning of my work day…

throw away account bc my boss is on reddit. turns into kind of a rant at the end. i just needed to vent because i haven't been having a good year so far. Whenever this conversation comes up at work or anywhere really, people always say “it's only 8 hours” or “just stay another hour, its more money” Let me explain something to everyone. I wake up and i spend 35 minutes to get ready for work. I clear the snow off my car and warm it up for 5 minutes. I spend 35 minutes to go to work and sit in the parking lot for 10 minutes so im not late or too early. I clock in, and start working for 9 hours, but i punch out for my 30 minute break so really 9 hours and 30 minutes. i finish and let me car warm up for 5…

We desperately need to remove the business of monetary profit aspect from the practice of law.

It's the root to so many of our problems, especially work conditions. Our labor laws have quietly and successfully been completely altered to the working classes disadvantage. This is of course amongst the legislative fields and in the courtrooms and firms that practice law. Monetary incentives are a discourse that lead to laws that work to societies disadvantage.

My boss said I have to sign my final performance improvement plan by tomorrow, should I?

I work as a banker in a branch. In November my drawer was short close to $1000 and my manager said he has to call HR and 3 days later he had me sign performance improvement plan for failing to scan some documents probably which was true but didn't say anything about me giving out $1000 extra on the teller line and those improper scanning happened long time ago, but no one said anything to me until that day. He knew that I was scheduled for a medical leave in 2 weeks, so I left, came back and today (in February) he asked me to sign a final performance improvement plan for being short on the teller line. I said it doesn't look right and I need to think before signing it. Because it seems very odd that he waited 3 months to give me another warning, he could've done…
