Antiwork

Friday, gave my two weeks due to my discontent with how the company is being managed, and that I have another job opportunity in an unrelated field. My boss texted the head of security and acted like he was willing to bargain to make my employment under his watch a more enjoyable one. Right as I start getting into the meat and bones of what should change, security opens the door to the office. I ended up being escorted out, and had no opportunity to clean my desk, I had to leave my phone and everything behind while I got escorted off the property, and told I can’t step foot on their company grounds ever again. I called the cops, explained what happened and that I had no chance to gather my belongings. Cop goes in and recovers my belongings, but also said “I hate to do this, but you’re…

I have been working in large medical system that has 7+ hospitals, 6 clinic malls, 160+ smaller clinics for the last 21 years all in different parts of their Materials Management system. They paid for my B.S. in Materials Management with a few lean and 5S certifications. 4 years ago I wrote a proposal to change to a new computer system for all of that buildings materials management in 1 of there hospitals. It included all new racking on the units, rework all of our storage in the building, new hardware, new software, training, and the rest of the 99 yards. I put an estimated cost of $350,000 and to max out at $500,000 with a 18 month as long they do not drag there feet. It took me right at 13 months to get the first hospital (level 2 trauma center with 130 beds) 100% changed over to the…

I'm wondering if there's any actions I can take, legal or otherwise, to not feel so impotent. But if this is just an outlet to complain and give my wife a break that's okay too I'm a department manager for an east coast grocery chain, hired fall 2021. Beginning of April we bought our house, mid April my mother died. She'd been sick, so when dad called and said “come back to California asap she won't last the weekend”, I told the HR person because I wanted to make sure I would get bereavement PTO since money was tight, she assured me I'd already passed the 6 months probation and had three days paid. I flew that night, saw my mom pass, and flew back at the end of 3 days. When I returned, HR informed me I was rejected for bereavement but I could “use a day of my…

TLDR: This Redditors thoughts that the UK could be heading for a revolt. Would love to hear reddits thoughts on this. For cIarity I would consider myself to a Socialist by nature and it pains me to see people experiancing hardship due to no fault of their own. I will try to be impartial when wrtting this, but doubt I'll be successful. I feel like the UK working class and even some of the middle class are now approaching a precipice. I'm not sure? I'm sensing an undertow of discontent. We've experianced a substantial amount of change in a relatively short period of time. In my opinion these events have exposed the disparity and injustices that would normally be hidden away. Brexit I think has been the first big change which has really divided the nation quite bitterly. Regrettably I voted to leave the EU. Naively at the time I…
