Job barely pays, I get sick often, and my coworkers are racist

I work at a hotel from 9am to 7pm and it truly sucks. Whenever I get there my general manager and manager are so lovely. But all of that nice experience goes away once they leave. The cleaning staff at this hotel purposely stays as late as possible so they can drag ass and get paid as much as possible. They get word that I start realizing this and assume that I’m the one who changed the time on their clock in sheet (it was actually the manager). Ever since then the entire cleaning staff minus one lady absolutely hates me. Every single time they see me they always say “you talk so white what is wrong with you” or they’ll call me on the hotel phone and say “are you sure you work here? You sound way too white”. It literally breaks my soul dealing with this shit every…

“Be more positive”? Thanks! I’m cured!

According to my former manager, part of the reason I was fired was my attitude. I was always too negative. Never mind that I have a documented history of severe anxiety and clinical depression. Which he was well aware of because it's the same justification I used for an ADA exemption when he tried forcing the team to return to office full time. Anyhow: With regards to your negativity, I have asked you multiple times verbally over the months to be a positive person, and to rectify your attitude. I’ve also said multiple times that our team needs to be a positive force in the company and outside. I understand this may be your style of humour, sarcasm, or way to provide feedback, but as indicated previously and now again in writing, this is inappropriate and this needs to stop. […] In the future I expect you to behave in…

Hired as a sales assistant and shopkeeper, ended up having to participate in a MLMish program. Need guidance on how to deal with this.

Got a relative well paying job recently, a sales assistant job in a relatively small branch selling computer rental services. When I was at the interview I was told that I mainly just watch over the shop and service any customer that are interested in our services. The MLMish program (what they called as agency) is for part timers only and us full timers (just me and the dude who interviewed me) will just be manning the physical store and occasionally respond or follow up some online questions from social media, sometimes maybe hand out some flyers for passerbys to let them know our services and that’s pretty much it. But it never turns out to be this simple. Just couple of hours ago, the manager told us that we have to join the Agency group chat and require us to pull every single person that we ever interacted and…
