Antiwork

I just got out of a meeting with the CEO and H.R. lady about the complaint I filed about someone attempting to shoulder check me in the hall way forcing me to physically press myself flat against the wall to avoid being run over by him. CEO says if you don't like our work culture you can find another job. I tell him I'm the only electrical engineer at the company and that I have plenty of opportunities so suggesting I find another job is going to be something I will consider. CEO immediately takes back what he says and starts pleading how important I am to the company and how much I am needed. I reply that telling me to find another job is not how to show someone they are important to the company. He tries to deny he ever suggested I find another job now. I stay…

I’ve come to realize that when leaving a job giving a 2 week notice is useful for a small company (or govt) because once day you might want to go back . Or maybe they call you back with more money. Companies with 100 employees or more not so much because they will mark you with a Do Not Rehire even though you left on good terms. So tell him with them and leave whenever you feel like leaving

I saw this and thought you guys would love it 😀 https://preview.redd.it/uw8m1mu2hpi91.png?width=824&format=png&auto=webp&s=8962e311bb16d2a7b7029472876f7ebae6052ea2

Every week, I have to deal with at least one asshat (lucky if it's only one) that just refuses to read emails. Doesn't matter how succinct I try to be, they gloss right over pertinent info and then fuck something up. My job requires training people on how to use proprietary software and I know what you might be thinking, “Maybe you're just not that good at training.” I have a bit of imposter syndrome so that thought floats through my head often. Ultimately, the majority of people I have trained have been successful in using the software and I've received a fair amount of positive feedback from them, so this is most likely not the case. Today, I am trying to be patient with a particular trainee who at the time of training, had no questions. I always try to make myself available for follow-up if anyone needs it…
