Antiwork

As suitable housing for everyone is the most needed thing in society. The biggest issue I see is that normies nearly always invest into real estate and look to turn a profit, and the older they get the more likely they are to have more investment properties, which only makes less available for the coming of age generation and single adults who don't have family support. The owner of these properties say they are doing a service, “I'm letting people rent out the house”. From my perspective I am unable to afford my rent in a single bedroom apartment that doesn't even have in-suite laundry, I don't have a Netflix subscription, or eat avocado toast or live off of late espressos and my rent also doesn't include utilities. Meanwhile my parents have several investment properties, in which they split the house to allow rental of both the main floor and…

This happened to me back in June of this year, but I wanted to share this with y'all to hear your thoughts. I started this job at a dispensary near me as a packaging technician. The first two months I was there, I only packaged this one specific brand of vapes. The third month I was there, I was moved to a different section of the building due to a conflict with my supervisor (which is a whole other enraging story) and I did a little bit of everything there (gummies, vapes, prerolls, tinctures, etc.). While I was there, my QCers constantly gave me praise for being one of the fastest and having some of the highest output numbers in the room. They would even have me fill in for them when they would take their 15s. I loved my job. It was perfect for me. I'm autistic, so being…

I quit my job at a painting company over a month ago. I decided to keep my health insurance with them, so I would have to pay in full 300$ a month to keep my insurance for 9 more months. I think it's called COBRA? Anyways they just sent me the paperwork last week after saying they got my address wrong twice. I sent it back immediately the same day with a check to cover October 1st payment. But since they sent it so fucking late it terminated my insurance. I have therapy every week, and I had to cancel this week bc they told me my insurance is terminated until they recieve my check in the mail. I love how I have to suffer because other people couldn't do their fucking jobs, and nobody has to pay for anything except ME.

Yep you see that correctly! Last week I reached out to my HR about somethings that have been going on and I was told “give me a few days and I will get back with you” yesterday the one I made the complaint about came to my office confronted me about what i went to HR with and then pretty much fired me in the spot. This is why people don't go to HR for anything, you get retaliated against and instead of fixing the problem we sweep it under the rug and fire the people that brought the concern to light.

So I notice a lot of this sub seems to deal with stuff and people in the US, but I live on Prince Edward Island in Canada. I get paid 14.50$ an hour, when our province minimum wage went up, I got no raise, when I came back from the off season they gave me a whole fifty cent raise, I was making 14.00 for the first season. Also found out from my friend who I recommended that they got the same 50 cent raise as me after working there for maybe and month and was told not to tell me. I thought this job was great when I started, really hard work but I love my coworkers. But this summer was absolutely brutal, we were understaffed to hell and the supervisors didn’t really help us, just handed us a list of sometimes 18 rooms to clean and said go,…
