Should I quit the job that I hate or working with ‘just making money’ mentality?

I don't know if I am able to pull off the later in my question as I am hating this job too much. I hate it with a passion. To the point I don't even try to achieve more. Just work enough and reach the baseline of requirements. This job turned out to be 180 degrees different than I thought. I found out I got paid less than the dude who joined the team at the same time at me, who always under performance, rarely reached target etc. Meanwhile, here I am working my ass off knowing someone didn't even work that hard that got paid more. Everything with this job is absolute nightmare. But I need the money. I can't afford to leave without another job. I tried and indeed went for a few interviews but no luck, or the salary is too low than I expected. What should…

Pay gap between different companies?

I quit my job two months due to a very toxic work environment and have been looking for a new job and ran into companies trying to low ball or have unrealistic low wage expectations. I am in commercial real estate and the salary difference between companies for identical roles can be 40k a year. Anyone else have experienced this lately?

I went to a donut shop tonight with my family and I’m upset at the working conditions

I wanted to get a donut and a milkshake but the girl at the counter told us that the fryer was broken so she couldn’t make any donuts, and because she was the only one there, she couldn’t make milkshakes because they take to long and there were other people waiting. All she was able to do was give us ice cream scoops! We ended up just leaving without getting anything and I just can’t believe that a shop can be left like that for that poor girl to work by herself.

How do I quit? (My first real job)

Got a retail job like two months ago and tbh it’s been difficult to keep up with and it’s taking a toll on my back. I’ve had back issues since last year and it seems like something triggered it again… prob lifted something at work. Talked to my doctor and she said that I’m gonna make it worse if I continue standing 7+ hours at work everyday. I’ve made the decision to not continue anymore but how do I relay this to my boss. I def can’t talk in person cause I might acc have a panic attack and prob have to take a Xanax like I did before I got the job so could I quit over a phone call? I asked my boss to call me when he’s free today but he didn’t call me back and then I tried calling him but he didn’t answer. My guess…

Seems like stealing from the rich is “doing crime,” while stealing from the poor is “doing business.”
