Antiwork

she just walks out of the lab and nobody gets on her ass for it. I think she might see me as a nice guy. I try to avoid her and I never join the coworkers for social activities because they can gaslight or perpetuate criticism. I eat my sandwich at breaktime with a rest. the rotor finishes spinning the samples to get a fluid for the analytes and beeps before the specimen receptionist loads it up again. Someone has to man the bench itself to unload the samples. Should I: A) take out the blue buckets with the samples from the rotation device and leave them to return to my own work B) Load the urgent samples from the centrifuge and load them on for her because they have a quick need of results C) As a basic grade risk my senior coworkers think I am difficult if I…

So last week we waved goodbye to our old crazy Office Manager and the Directors promoted the new guy. His first communication to me? Throwing his weight around and say X is my responsibility now and So and So will be handing the work over. This is before his promotion has even been announced to the Office, and while the old Manager is still in place. Add on to the fact X was a Finance problem and my Job role is basically Payroll and Tech support, and he wanted it done during my busiest period? Haha no. I politely explained it was not possible for me to take on more work at the moment and raised the point with one of the directors, who agreed my job role was too important to change. Come this week, and I'm struggling to meet my deadlines due to the utter shitshow Payroll was…

I got hired for a care assistant job and need a reference from previous work. It’s been over 4 weeks of asking my previous workplace to give reference and still nothing. I cannot start work without the reference. It’s been 2 years since I quit working but that was the last place I worked at. What should I do? The previous manager replied to one of emails saying she will look into it but that was 3 weeks ago. I am scared that I will lose this job position now.

I am female. I work in a small warehouse in rural Georgia. There are a total of seven employees in the whole building, and four of us are in the warehouse. I have been there for 14 months. On several occasions my boss has made sexist, what he thinks or jokes, towards me. I did not report this to HR because The mother branch of this company is on the other side of the country, and I’ve never even met the HR representative. I did report this stuff to my immediate supervisor. She sympathized with me, but did nothing to document it or report it. Last week another instance happened where the boss felt it necessary to belittle me in front of two of my coworkers because he seemed to feel that his masculinity was being threatened by me being knowledgeable. This is particularly confusing to me because I thought…

Currently on unpaid FMLA (the best kind of maternity leave America has to offer) and found out that my supervisor and administration of the place I work has changed my job duties to something that is virtually impossible to do. Why do our bosses get to make rules and regulations for a job they haven’t done in years/have never done???

Pretty straightforward. Your company would replace you at the drop of a hat, so you have to look out for yourself. Take days off, don’t work late and the biggest one ASK FOR SOME PAY RAISES. Rock the boat every year for pay raises or you’ll never get them

Greetings A few months ago I had become Severly depressed and had to be hospitalized, added to that I am a Stroke survivor and still have some difficulties with my cognitive functions, said difficulties are being put on Super Saiyan mode because of the depression. All these diagnoses as well as a very thorough work assessment done by a professional were handed into HR and Management to request a straight shift as it provides me with a stability that I find helpful to keep me moving forward is this miserable life. HR has decided on its own regardless of said documents, how long a straight shift should last and I will now be put on shifts as of next week, a reason I was given was that there have been complaints from my shitty colleagues about the unfairness of it all regardless that I was on a straight shift 90%…
