Antiwork

Today is my last day at a job. They have been delayed in getting our 2022 bonuses paid out. I'm being told that because they're being paid on 3/10 I will not receive one. Just need help to see if this is legal as I was employed all of 2022. Thanks!

My son has been doing his WFH job with a company that rhymes with BIGMA. It's a brutal, thankless job that solely exists as an echo chamber for angry Boomers who can't do ANYTHING on their own. For my son though, it doesn't upset him in the least, so he is GREAT at his job. He has been harrassed by his male boss on a daily basis. Texts, messages, brutally cruel coachings. Constant, CONSTANT threats of, “I could fire you if I wanted to. I could fire you RIGHT NOW, and you wouldn't get unemployment, you would get NOTHING.” My son is incredibly intelligent, and very patient. He is autistic as well and he cannot understand why this man is telling him that he is “call dodging” and writing him up, and suspending him. He talks to him like an angry father. It's long, but I am going to post…

I was chatting with some friends about annual reviews at our respective jobs and it got me thinking, everywhere seems to use the rating scale of below/meets/exceeds expectations and most times they are tied to your increase/bonus. I’ve always just met expectations at my current job and I am okay with that. If you want someone to go beyond their normal job duties, you should put them in a position where their “exceeds expectations” is just their normal job duties and pay them more. Meets expectations just sounds so dismissive. I think I did superb at the job duties that I signed up for. Just curious, are there any companies that do this differently or what is it like in other countries? Americans tend to have this workhorse, hustle mentality so it would be interesting to hear what it is like in countries that actually value workers having lives outside…

My work flat out told me they would not acknowledge my government name as my dead name. Not even in the whole legality department just among staff and eachother. I never went by my dead name at work yet they go out of their way to Address me as such. What a good day to be trans :))

I have roughly 40 hours of PTO accrued, but I recently made the decision to go to part time instead of full time. My manager said that if I go to part time, my PTO will be taken away. Is that legal?

I did an interview recently and this part time gig wants me to deduct $50 out of my first check to pay for a company t-shirt, apron, and short sleeve dress shirt and I never heard of this, is that a common thing? Every place I’ve worked at gave a uniform for free or we gave it back at the end of our shift.
