Antiwork

Don't know who else needs to hear this. I for sure do. Have a great day everyone!

Ello friends. Company in question is a trucking company in Eastern Kentucky. He has been a truck driver for them for 19 years. He had a heart attack in January & had been off the job for a month. During that month of recovery he had smoked a bit of bud to help with the pain & stress. He never failed a drug test for his entire tenure with company in question (19 years). Needed to work one more year to earn retirement with company. Company has a zero tolerance drug policy. He had not smoked very recently but returned to work and they told him he failed his drug test and that he has been fired. Details I know: Does not have a medical card (very new thing in Kentucky), he personally was not given his results. Is there any type of protection for this? Smoking while on medical…

I was sending out resumes like crazy and after about 100 or so, I finally got a job offer. It's a IT specialist job, the company is providing tech support to its clients, usually pharmacies/hospitals. However, they hired me as a junior, with the presumption that they will have to spend a lot of time teaching me basically everything. Which is reflected in my salary. I'm not from the US, so not much point in converting it to dollars, but the salary is comparable to a warehouse job/cashier job. I could just go work at McDonald's and I would probably earn a little more. I have no experience or relevant education in this field, also I need money bad, and it's that type of job one could consider tolerable, which is why I accepted the job. It's my first week here, so far I haven't really been doing anything, just…

I'm so glad you have made such an obscene amount of money. All the while capping my promotion to 20% of my current salary even though that raise would have barely set me to the industry minimum for my role. Even though this is a publicly traded company with thousands of people below you, you've decided to make sweeping rule changes and personally approve and modify promotion offers. Even ones approved before you took over this new “responsibility”. Even though the VP of my department personally took interest in making sure I got my proper raise. Even though this has been processing because of your bullshit for 9 months. You cut 10k out of my promotion even though we're recording amazing numbers. Even though I'm directly responsible for a lot of client retention. You literally told my boss if I threaten to quit “good luck, nobody's hiring”. It's funny because…

Hello, Help me understand why this is legal and how I can maybe leverage this. I’ve been in a position for ~10 months. I have an annual review tomorrow. I’ve evidently been killing it per my leadership for the short amount of time that I’ve been here. I train new hires, and I am in the proceed of joining a committee that will benefit my entire team by creating resources they will use on the daily. My pay range has been -7.87% compared to the base range pay. So, I’ve been getting undercut -7.87% from what the MINIMUM offers for a person in my position at my company for the past 8 months. This is broadcasted to us individually. Compared to other organizations, I would need to obtain a ~13-20% raise to compete with the MINIMUM of other locations for an equivalent position… you may ask wtf am I doing,…
