Antiwork

I work in a kitchen for a major grocery store. It's cramped and I work over 3 fryers and a Double-oven, plus the industrial dishwasher that puts out heat/steam. We have zero air conditioning and its been in the high 90s all week. I already know this is fucked up, but is this the kind of fucked up I can actually officially complain about? Not to management, because they could care less, but OSHA? Located in Washington state, for reference. Stay cool and safe out there, everybody.

Quit my job a few months back and have been searching for a new one ever since, my resume states I'm still employed at the company. If the background check finds this out and I'm contacted to explain, what can i say or do? Yes, I know i shouldn't lie about employment dates, but here i am so please save the lecture. ​ Side note: my old boss was really cool and would tell them whatever i needed him to say if they contacted him.

previous post I quit. Couldn't take it anymore and got another job offer. I did report him on that Friday and on Thursday the board of pharmacy paid him a surprise visit. They spoke privately in his office and he came out after and told everyone to go home. I heard this from a current employee. Not sure what happened after, I know they were closed for several days at least and may still be closed. Not very climactic sorry.

I’ve been someone who’s very conscious about the system we live in and I would like to believe when the class war begins I’d be on the front lines. Classism, capitalism, the system etc etc is probably the one thing you could get me to speak passionately about and apart from my loved ones, it’s about the only thing I truly care about. It’s really a fight for our freedom. That being said this subreddit took me from a solid 10/10 in terms of how radicalised I was to 100/10. I can’t believe some of the stuff I’m reading. I mean I can, I really can believe it, quite easily actually but the more posts I read the more heated I get. Some of the stuff I read just screams feudalism and slavery. I truly believe there will come a breaking point. A moment where everyone says enough is enough.…

About three months ago, I was hired at a restaurant. They had an open AM position, and they took me on. Things seemed okay for a little while. Naturally, as I was new to the company, they weren’t going to throw me in headfirst into something I knew nothing about, so I trained as a regular staff member, primarily in the kitchen. The owner promised me that getting me keys and an AM ID card was going to happen soon. It’s been three months. She has done nothing to get me either of those things, and now is insisting I was hired as just a restaurant leader, which is a step below AM. Normally, I’d just nod and go with it. However, today, they threw me in as the MOD with no ID card to authorize anything, and said “Good luck”. I want to elaborate more but I’m hiding in…
