Antiwork

I currently work for a seasonal job in a ski resort. I live roughly 12KM away one way. When I asked my Operations Manager, he said that Transportation Fee's are only for those who live far away. I find this extremely unfair and was wondering if there is anyone higher up in a general workspace that I should ask for another shot at getting paid to get to and from work. Winter conditions are rough on the gas bills.

I was a freelancer for 5 years years before joining a PR agency. I started pretty low level, and in 2 years climbed to a Director level position. It was a mixture of intense pressure, stress, and changes in my personal life that made me decide I wanted to quit. I put in my notice in September, and was wrapped up with work by end of November. Now, a month later, I feel recovered from burn out and feel regret for leaving. My job was fully remote, had great pay, and I genuinely loved the work. I feel like I made a rash and emotional decision when instead I should have taken proper time off to take care of myself. Anyone else been through this and care to share wisdom on how you moved forward from the regret feelings?

So back in September, I had open heart surgery and I was doing some light work from home while recovering. Now for context, the CEO I report to do directly is a textbook narcissist. The man reaps all the profits from custom projects, owns 5 properties he rents out in high end neighborhoods, drives a BMW. The works. So during my recovery, I took naps every 4 hours to take it easy on my heart and overall keeping the vibes high. Now through this process I am explaining to him that I just had my heart worked on, I can’t go back yet. But he eggs me on daily back “ETA on coming back”. I don’t think much of it. I am his manager and project lead, I understand that he’s anxious. My empathy is going to be the fucking death of me. So his nagging kinda ramps up to…

I work at a family owned resteraunt in my neighbourhood. I was offered a New Years Eve shift (my first one) so they explained to me that it's actually a really good shift and we would have time to sit down with the guests before midnight. They said they need to know so they know if they can open up. I thought about it and being a broke uni student plus the fact that I am very naïve led me to the conclusion that it was a good idea. Oh. Boy. A server couldn't make it cause she broke her leg (bosses Mom is the server and she was doing an errand for my bosses and their kids when she slipped on ice and shattered her leg) so it was just one server left for 60+ people and then my two bosses and I working the kitchen. My New Years…
