Everybody else would be fired for making a mistake like this. The guy literally couldn’t do a job and is President, Screw the system… you’d be fired for calling a client the wrong name….

Can an employer do this?
Can an amplifier pay minimum wage if with benefits the wage is above the minimum? For example, in Arizona the minimum wage is 12.80, if you work at a restaurant can they give you $11 and a free meal per shift?
HR meeting for being “too bossy”?
I wish that headline was a joke. Let me add some context (TLDR at end). I work pretty much a sales position, where I travel across a region and give presentations. That's all I do (I'm considered hourly part-time), so I'm at home if I'm not scheduled or picking up extra supplies from the office. I received a text from our HR person this afternoon about an hour before I was planning on leaving for my gig today asking if I can come to the office in (at that point) 55 minutes for a “meeting”. I live 42 minutes away from our main office and was not dressed for work at that point. I asked what the purpose of this urgent meeting was; they replied “to discuss your roles and positions with [company]”. Instant panic, right? Obviously I'm getting fired at this meeting. So I tell them I can be…
I work 7am-7pm, the earliest I will ever leave is 7:30, the norm is 8:00-8:30. The latest was 10:00 because the the night shift called in sick. We rotate every 2 weeks day shift and night shift. 3 days on. 2 off. This is the expectation where I work, and beyond that we are understaffed so each person does the work of a team of 2-3. It's grueling, unforgiving, and demeaning. There's no training and the environment is trial by fire. I've looked for other work, had several interviews external and internal, and I only got one bite internally. The catch is I need to wait 2 months until they can replace me, and I train my replacement. I am absolutely miserable, but need to get through it, on the other end is 8-5. But goddammit this is no way to live. For context I work in a packaging and…
How do you do the same job full time?
Seriously, how do you work the same job, day in day out, every week? I suffer with my health and really struggle to work full time. I’m really struggling for cash though and I just don’t know what to do. Maybe picking up a few jobs of less hours each is the way to go? My anxiety and mental health get bad if I’m doing the same thing every day. I hope this is the right place to post? I encourage any venting off in the comments about full time work!
And just because he's a human, A man would like a little bite to eat. He wants no pointless politics That gives no bread or meat. So left, two, three! So left, two, three! To the work that we must do! March on in the Workers' United Front, For you are a worker, too! And just because he's human, A man needs a household to stay. The words and books won't keep him warm, Nor the trenches of the fray. So left, two, three! So left, two, three! To the work that we must do! March on in the Workers' United Front, For you are a worker, too! And just because he's human, He doesn't need a pistol to his head. He wants no servants under him, No master overhead. So left, two, three! So left, two, three! To the work that we must do!…
