My boss told me today to use another bathroom because people complain about “the smell”. No one has ever came up to me and said, “You stink.” I clean the bathrooms at my job as I figure I should, I figure I commit the most atrocities in there, but my cave is a lot less stained than everyone else's. I usually spend about 3 minutes going poo, much less than my coworkers and maybe that's just because it's usually a liquid that explodes from me. Anyways, am I justified in being mad at my boss? Should I just feel like a disease-ridden pig?
I called out of work today
And I can't help but feel really guilty now. I am full time and I just wanted a day off. I don't have any more PTO (we get 5 days per year and I've already used it up) so I will be out the 8 hours of pay and that was probably a stupid thing to do. But idk, I just really didn't want to go to work but now I feel like a total piece of shit because I'm just a home watching TV and browsing the internet and doing nothing. I don't have money to do anything anyway but should I feel this terrible about skipping work? We have been really really slow and I'm all caught up on my work and stuff. I just feel stupid for missing out on the money for a day of being lazy. Reassurance wanted please lol
Is this something I can report?
Dont even know if this is the right sub but here it is. I recently started a new office job, and there is a coworker known as “fat fucker” who honestly is beginning to make me uncomfortable as hell. It seems every time I use the restroom (which can be pretty frequent do to my IBS-D) he comes in right after and proceeds to stand outside of the shitter, facing the door, and starts making odd noises like heavy breathing, grunting, and throat clearing. I'm at the point where I don't even feel comfortable using the restroom here cause the dude honestly creeps me the hell out
I once got fired for not being a “culture fit” only 3 months into the job. No further explanation. Anyone else ever get fired for something stupid?
Lol no one is allowed to pull overtime anymore. This is going to be really fun to watch….oh you want to borrow someone from another department to fill in for the sick receptionist on Saturday? Sorry…no over time. You want the grave diggers to be snow removal too? Sorry…no over time. You want to make sure aunt sally is buried tomorrow even though you just gave me paperwork five minutes ago….well 2 feet have been dug but it’s 5pm and I’m off the clock ad you said no over time….oh the other cemetery doesn’t have the staff to dig a grave today? Sorry…no over time….yeah this is about to get really really really messy

Started a job at a well known bio pharmaceutical company this past spring. We have two types of PTO that we are given here. Vacation time: This is accrued over time, a few hours every pay period. 40 hours of vacation time may be rolled over into the next year, but never more than that. They do not pay the hours out so you need to use them. Holiday time. Since we are fully operational 24/7, they give us 100 hours of holiday time on Jan. 1st of every year to use whenever throughout the year, since we will likely be working many holidays. None of these hours may roll over to next year so you have to use them or they’re gone. When I started in the spring, I was given 20 hours of holiday time upon my first day. I figured this was because I started a few…
