This is why people don’t like recruiters.

This is the second time this person has pushed our screener back. It’s incredibly frustrating to know I have a better chance getting the position if I go through this recruiter, but it just feels like they are hedging their bets with other candidates while leaving me out to dangle. It just feels like nobody is treating anybody with a measure of respect anymore .

Older people blaming Gen Z for everything

I'm a millennial myself and we had our fair share of the older generation shitting on everything we do. Is it me or gen Z now in the same spotlight as millennials were 10 years ago? You guys/gals are now getting blamed for inflation, changing work environment, standing up for what you believe in, and being different and not accepting the same bullshit as previous generations. It seems like every other news article is shitting on gen Z or blaming them in some way. What do you think? I'm glad gen Z are changing the world because the world is fucked up and has been for so long.

Is this allowed ?

The way i see it, I show up for my scheduled shift and I leave at the time I’m scheduled to leave. If I’m showing up 15 minutes early shouldn’t I be paid for that 15 minutes or are they allowed to do this?
