Antiwork

Who else hasn't intentionally worked a full 8 hr day for the past year? Either in person or WFH.

No matter the job, I always end up both physically and mentally sick after a year. This cycle is so exhausting.

I work for a small high end grocery store chain the in the PNW that prides itself on being the first B-Corp grocery store in the nation, having competitive pay, and being an overall great place to work. About 6 months ago there was talk about one of the bigger store locations creating a labor union and moving forward with a vote and winning! Since then nearly half the stores have moved forward to join said labor union movement, change is happening fast. Just this week, my store’s location gained over 57% majority support to move towards unionizing and we filled! I’m so proud of all the organizers involved and all the support we have had.

Cheers ️ You can add up if you got any new things to add in comments.

Well, I work as a contractor to an outsourcing company located in the US that has an abusive amount of days as notice period. I got another job offer that requires me to start sooner than later and won't be able to fulfill the agreement. It's it possible that they try to do something against me? I'm working from another country, which would make things even harder for them to try. Did anyone had a similar issue?
