Antiwork

I started a new remote position and was flown down to Florida to meet my co-workers and boss. My first day in town a group takes me out to lunch and immediately begins trash talking a coworker who wasn’t in the office that day. It was regarding how she raises her child and then was followed up by comments about how there is not father in the house, just 2 mothers. One the way back to the office my boss asked me what I thought about boys having pedicures. I said “I think its just like boys having manicures” trying to evade the conversation. She continues to explain how awful it is that this coworkers son has glitter nail polish on his feet and sometimes wears a purse and her own child can’t understand it because ‘boys don’t wear purses”. She went on to bring up the “don’t say gay”…

So I'm currently sitting outside of a circle k and there's a child working. Mostly sweeping but he can't be older than 12 or 13. I'm assuming he's the cashier's kid and maybe she didn't have a sitter and putting him to work? Idk I just don't like the look of it

I'm 45 and have been working since I was 13. Living on my own since 15 and haven't taken more then 2 weeks off (even between jobs) in 30+ years… I burnt out and my health is in decline. I have some modest savings and assets from my work and toil but nothing close to retirement. It is increasingly difficult to get up each day to go work and know that unless something changes, I will be “lucky” to get to work until I am 70+… I feel like I may have 5-10 years of “Living” left in me. My intuition and heart agree that I should exit from my career, liquidate my assets, and set about to traveling and enjoying myself for the next 5-10 years. This will leave me near destitute and broke at 55 and then I can do whatever I must at that time… It is…

My managers/general manager scheduled my (assistant manager) vacation time without my consent. I was upset and circled the vacation day on calendar and wrote “we need to talk about this”. According to them that act of writing on the schedule was unacceptable and I was written up. They are still making me take my “vacation” time this week. I had all of three days to plan my “vacation”. Gave them two week notice today and they told me Its customary to give one month notice. I guess I'm working here until Thanksgiving or I can't use them for references.
