My boss is going to schedule all of us to work during hurricane Ian, not knowing how the hurricane will affect the building. This is a car wash. There will be no customers coming in, there is no reason to be open. Yet they want to gamble on someone elses safety. They can schedule me and call me all they want, im not coming in.

So, obligatory “Not my monkey, not my circus” situation here. ​ While on the phone with my son just now, he confided in me that his coworker was told that it is illegal to receive an increase of pay of more than 10% of current pay. Not that it's part of company policy, but that it would get them (the employer) in hot water with the state department of labor. Not that I think this is anywhere near accurate, but I figured I'd ask about it. For reference: In Nebraska, USA

I have a really really bad cough, congestion, and an extremely runny nose. I let my manager know and she said I still need to come in. I understand I can wear a mask (and I will) but personally I wouldn’t want someone this sick around my food. I also told her I had a fever of 100 too but she said it’s not high enough to miss work for. And just as an fyi I also took a covid test and it’s negative.

I don't have rights, they hired me in a way that they don't pay me any rights and they also don't pay taxes by doing this. I know that i agreed but I needed the money to survive anyway. My thing is, I'll probably move in the beginning of the month, but i won't be able…

So I work in higher education as a financial aid advisor. Not my intended career path, but I somehow just fell into it. The job I just left I had been working there for a little over a year. When I first got the job, I was super excited. It paid 10k more than my old job and I got to do more independent work and at my own pace. However, as the months went on, more and more people started leaving. It started with the Director who had initially hired me. He left about 2 months after I started. The assistant director quickly took his place. Then, we had the Director of Admissions leave, then 2 more admissions advisors. I still didn't see any red flags since I as making more money than I ever had in any other job. Things started to get noticeably bad when our Assistant…
