So I joined a company and even before taking the job, I had a bad feeling about it but at the time I couldn’t find a job close by or one that would allow me to work from home and this one was both so I took it. Well I started noticing illegal things that no one seemed to care about like not withholding taxes on bonus checks, and not remitting employee’s 401k withholdings, and etc. It ate at me and everyone told me to just walk out but I didn’t. I felt bad walking out even knowing it was a sinking ship. Plus I also found out that my boss is on a federal government watchlist and went to jail in the past for being a shady accountant. Now they are being audited by the IRS due to back taxes never paid and this is a huge concern since…

I see time and time again about salary people having to work overtime but being “exempt” from overtime pay (and have experienced it), and I’ve had a variety of salaried and hourly jobs. Can someone please link some resources about the history of this in the US? A lot of what google comes up with is obviously SEO’d to the max
I’ve let work define my worth
I work at a small pet food store in Canada. I accepted the job offer from my mother after they were suffering from sudden understaffing (worker got sick, another switched to part time for school and later quit) and so they needed a temp worker while things worked themselves out. I felt responsible since with only 2 workers available, my mother had no days off, and people wouldn't shut up about how my non-existent job hunt was going anyway, so I went. After the other person quit I basically went from temp to full time employee in a field I very much don't understand or care about and every day off had just been dreading every hour that brings me closer to going back.

I was told for a freeze we…
