Antiwork

So I have an interview in 3 weeks with Bell canada and I don't have either my highschool diploma or Ged. What are the chances they check educational records ? Idk if this is the right place to post this but thanks anyways.

I am aware I do not have to tell my employer anything. however, I work at a very small company and I work alongside my boss all day. I am confident he will ask what I will be doing. I don’t want to create an awkward situation where it is obvious I am searching for a new employer just in case it does not work out. (Any advice is helpful. Please excuse my grammar and formatting I’m actually at work now)

My apologies if I have the wrong thread, this just seemed like something that would really rustle the anti-work jimmies. Some back story, I (31M) have suffered with type 2 diabetes since I was 13, and have been through nearly everything that comes with it (i.e, hypoglycemia, fainting spells etc.). My current work place is aware of this, as I have worked for them for the last 11 years. 2 years ago the company got bought out by a larger entity who took things a little more seriously than previous ownership, which for the most part has been a good thing – job security was never perfect for a lot of workers besides a few, and new management came with more pay increases etc. An area that has changed however is the attitude towards sickness; as someone who goes through it a lot due to weakened immune system etc, it…

Hello I'm an undergrad student in the UK currently in a placement year (it's a year in industry where you're meant to gain experience and level up your CV before you come back for your last year of uni to graduate) I got a job in a healthcare company in marketing. I thought it would be long but at least something creative and in a company that wants to advance people's health, right? It's been almost 4 months (out of 12) and I have learned absolutely nothing and done nothing. Literally, all I've done today was edit a newsletter I wanna launch because I was bored. My tasks are usually something like put in these data into a spreadsheet or creating some slides – and they give me a week for it whilst I'm able to complete such a task in 2/3 hours. So afterward, I sit about doing absolutely…

Hello everyone! I'd like to share my experience working so far and ask for general advice/opinions. I'm 26yo (M) and have a degree in engineering. I've had almost 3 years of experience so far. I've entered the field quite excited and hopeful to learn and grow myself but the last months have been making me worried. Currently I have a 9-6 office job. I wake up every day almost at 7AM just to avoid traffic and get to the office on time, even though my job could be done remotely most of the days (my company doesn't like that). I spend all day in front of a computer screen having meetings and working on the projects. I actually enjoy my tasks and what I do, but almost everyone on this company looks miserable. Most people here are around 35-45 year old and are clearly overloaded with work. Some of old…

I'm not a native speaker, so I understand that's just how you say it. But still, the posts that I read send me a “submissive” vibe beyond the language, more in mindset. We say here that we work at here and there, with other idiots, spending some time together. Ok, when the owner is on your shoulder all day might be different, but still, the business is their problem. The only motivation for me and all of my colleagues is not to f*ck up the days and work of the other peasants. Everybody is there for themselves. Assholes are there, I know, but we make them outcast very fast in this low middle class job culture. If the company puts pressure on us: ok I'll do what I can, and do absolutely nothing more. Calling me out that I didn't improve? Well I don't see it like that, but I…

So most of My life we lived in poverty but about 6 or so years ago my mom got a decent job and my step dad got a crazy promotion so we basically shot up from living in families basement to having our own very nice home We lived comfortably for awhile but as of recently even with me moving out its gotten very difficult My family is upper middle class but shit has gotten so bad my mom has pick up a second job just to pay the bills We afforded that house very comfortably while I was still living there now both of them bust their ass like me a broke college student It's so stupid that this country is getting to the point where even the remnants of the middle class has to work two jobs. How long till we finally say enough and take on this…

I started this job about a month ago working in the service industry. At the time, the manager made it seem like a great opportunity. He was gonna give me plenty of hours including overtime, and even give me a $1.50 raise from my old job. Fast forward to my first paycheck, I realized my pay was not adding up with the hours I worked and the tips weren’t all that great, even though I was told they’re consistent throughout the year. After confronting my boss I got told I should be written up for disrespecting my GM, so I checked my paystub and realized he lied about my pay in the interview. I was getting paid $1 an hr less than what was agreed upon. I confronted him again and he said it was his mistake yadda yadda… today I got paid after busting my ass the last two…
