How to ask hiring company to keep my hiring confidential? – I’m sorry if this isn’t the right place to post. A few months back I had a great reference for a decent company. They did offer me the job, but I decided to stick with my current employer. They told me that if anything changes, to not hesitate to reach out. Fast forward until now, and I would actually like to take the job. My current job position is not going anywhere, and I would like something more stable with good benefits, which this other place has. I’m going to be reaching out to see if they have another position available. The only problem is that my higher-up reference (doesn’t work in HR, but it’s a small company, and he is in a senior position) is pretty decent friends with my current boss. It could all be nothing, they…
My workplace is odd
Super neglectful management. I’m a manager at a cafe and the upper management never comes around. I get paid less than every other manager across our several locations. Just keep hearing horror stories about upper management. Today they took our free meals away. We have to pay for them now. Everyone is underpaid and overworked and I can’t be complicit anymore. Starbucks offers better starting pay than my manager position. My coworkers are all beaten down and most are complacent. Have zero life outside of work. I feel bad for my one barista coworker. They try their best and I try my best too but I have to leave this place
first job experience
what’s up y’all. so im 23 years old & turn 24 in a couple months. im new to work & only worked two different jobs. i stayed at my first one, frankly because i was to scared to do anything. i eventually left my first grocery store job. because my store manager didn’t know what to do & how anything worked. i was 19 when i got hired & 21 when i quit. i wanted to switch departments because my department manager & i didn’t get along. she didn’t like the work i produced & i didn’t like her passive aggressive notes saying if i left the place “dirty” one more time, i would be written up. i talked about getting a switch to a different department & both department managers are okay with it. fast forward, i didn’t switch departments & i was pretty much left in limbo for…
What am I supposed to say? List everything they did negatively? How about you treat staff with some respect first before treating them as disposable?
So… I work in an early head start setting and we are supposed to go back to work tomorrow. My co-teacher and I as well as 2 other teachers can't go back in person with our kids tomorrow because of a pipe bursting in our classroom so we had a meeting with our center director yesterday to figure out what we were going to do. There we were told options that were offered and the one that was most talked about among the higher ups was home visits. My co-teacher and I voiced our concerns about doing home visits. (Like covid and bringing it home to family members that would not handle it well due to medical reasons, and not knowing these people very well and not even knowing if they would be willing to have us on their homes) so after our meeting yesterday our director got on another…
There is literally no profession in life that I would enjoy doing. With my skills, I have been applying for office jobs as opposed to the physically straining one that I have in retail and get rejected. I don't know what to do or how to survive.
So basicly the place I work for is refusing to reimburse me for going to work by car. This is not mandatory but in my country 99% of workplaces do this. I drive about 70 KM a day for work so quite a chunk of my paycheck goes towards transportation. When I applied for the job they lied about many things including this. They said I would be fairly compensated for traveling from home to work and the other way around. They also promised 8 euro meal allowence a day which is actually 3,5 euro because they made a mistake even tho I signed a contract saying 8 euro a day. And a bunch of other things. The only reason im not (yet) considering leaving this job is because it pays good compared to my previous job. So what I'm going to do now uis just tell them that starting…
