Antiwork

It seems like I’ve noticed a major uptick over the last several months in manipulative narcissistic micromanaging managers and HR staff who have started throwing this term “unprofessional” around constantly. Like they seem to be willy nilly shotgunning the term from their hips, so to speak, in response to any decision, behavior, or communication they find undesirable from their myopic, selfish, narcissistic perspective of “their” employees being their literal (perpetually cheerful!) slaves. Maybe bosses/managers/HR staff are trending to using this tactic because they’re all reading about it via the same source and/or via networking? Is this even a recent thing/phenomena or maybe bosses/managers/HR staff have always been using this particular manipulative Machiavellian tactic to control their slaves for practically forever? Maybe it’s just me and I’m just now noticing this as a specific manipulative tactic by bosses/managers/HR staff to control the narrative of a given employee -which must always be…

For context I live about 2 hours away from their office which I initially did not think was an issue since I would be working fully remote. Today I had a meeting with my boss and he said they are requiring people to come in once a week, and if that’s a dealbreaker, then he understands. I said yes unfortunately it is, it would increase my vehicle expenses by too much and I have pets that I would have to figure out a day care or other form of care for. I also brought up that initially I was told it would always be remote. He said that’s all fine, no hard feelings, just let him know when my last day will be. I was taken aback, I said oh it’s a dealbreaker as in I’ll be fired? He said yes, it’s a requirement and if I can’t meet it…

I’m all for improving lives of working people but Increase in min wage = higher demand in economy = increase in prices aka inflation. Businesses not being able to afford increase in pay = firing people (unemployment) or shutting down (more unemployment) which will cause more inflation since there is now a less supply of goods and services in the economy.

Long story short if you recognize me you know me from my boss complaining about me not working during my lunch break, yesterday I had to move 5 patients and put them on todays schedule (which was already fully booked) because he is horrible at time management. My lunch is usually from 12-12;30 and I’m on a medication that makes my glucose levels sensitive so if I’m hungry and my glucose drops it feels like it drops at once. So there was supposed to be 2 patients for 11:30 and both patients decided to arrive late at 12. I pushed off my lunch to be able to attend them. Once they were both being seen I decided to stop to eat my lunch because I was already shaking ( I swear my body has a biological timer for lunch time) then as I’m stuffing my face as fast as I…

My work has been putting people who don't work here anymore on the schedule so it looks full, there's gotta be someone to report that to right?
