Customer satisfaction surveys

these things suck. I genuinely don't know whose idea it was to have anything less than perfect count for nothing and seriously hurt us. A number of customers don't even bother to fill them out, I know it does not ask for any information if you opt to say you don't have a receipt. What are the chances the website tracks the device you do it on? Could employees get away with filling these out anonymously depending on the company? The place I work at has these tied to bonuses and I really need this money but not enough surveys are coming in for us to meet the required quota. I have already filled one out (4 days ago ish) and am currently stressing out about losing my job over this. Am I screwed?

History of Inequity

I once worked for a hybrid electronics firm that made parts for the Air Force. I liked the job because I was solely responsible for the production of my parts form raw material to finished product awaiting final QC and packaging. I produced 100 parts per week and was paid $6.25 per hour. When I became a manager at the company I discovered that the company sold the parts for $660 a pc. ($66000 a week gross on my $250 per week labor). I made the deal at 6.25 per hour and at that time could cover all my expenses, but the inequity of the situation continues to bother me. Incidentally, the company sold to a foreign investor and was moved overseas. And all the production staff was terminated. I never broke the deal I made but the company that hired me let me go as soon as they could…

Company owed me significant cash but asking for property back first.

Longtime lurker here. In Texas. Videographer on monthly contract for flat fee, invoiced every two weeks. To start off, I was stupid and didn't do any formal contract. Neither of us saw the need as the CEO and I got along great, and I felt like I would be a key asset to the company, so of course they would never leave me without pay… To do my job effectively, they let me borrow indefinitely a couple of pieces of equipment for me to use on their tasks as I saw fit. About $800 worth. I am an independent contractor, and they even said I could use the equipment for other clients as needed. Two weeks ago I turned in my final project of the year. No reply from them for a week, I assumed all was okay and no revisions needed, I submitted my invoice for it (my third…

Does anybody want to work anymore in 2023?

I’ve been working at a store for a few years now and I’ve been really good at it. But now I’m just tired and fed up with customers not giving me the respect I deserve. Does anybody feel the same way?

so I applied for an intermittent FMLA leave

I signed up to work four, ten-hour shifts. But due to the lack of staffing, instead of my shift schedule looking like 7:30 a.m – 6:00 p.m. My boss has been keeping all of us hostage until everything is done. I work in logistics for a lucrative healthcare company, and after getting the doc's sign off to leave at 6:00. I've now been retaliated against, being told by my supervisor, “If I leave at 6:00, I risk being terminated for cause and if that's not enough. I'll find another reason to let you go!” Help me out Redditor's? Wtf do I do?

New Year, New Job

I've been a supervisor of a site that's been a sinking ship well before I got there for about 4 months now. Had 2 people randomly quit on me and a flex that we desperately need for our weekend shifts tell me he never wanted to be at my site. I am now praying that when January 2 hits, I'll finally get told by someone that the better paying position I applied for is mine. It's no wonder my position has been a revolving door: I don't get any support from any of my higher-ups, the pay is absolutely dogshit where we're located, and God forbid you have any huge personal problems while you're there because if you ever leave without it being the end of your shift or someone to cover for you, because your ass will be fired so fucking fast. I needed a vacation after my first…

Created a charAI chat bot to go against another bot called THE Manager that’s hard to convince for a day off and any benefits. Then I asked the ANTI Manager bot about a post.
