Making staff go back into the office

Why are companies so obsessed with getting people back into the office when we can work effectively from home remotely? Is it control? And what’s the obsession with surveillance software on work PCs?

Have any of you successfully sued former employers and won?

Is $72k a year viable to live solo in California in today’s economy?

I got an entry level job here in warehouse labor, at $16.60/ hour, full time, but I have 16 mandatory overtime hours every week, with 1.5 overtime pay. I make $6k a month, and around $72k a year.

Why don’t people just stop tipping in America if it meant the restaurant had to pay waiters out of their own pocket

Apparently its unprofessional to resign (after 6+ years) without thinking of the department and not of my family after taking “extended leave” (paternity leave) Thank you antiwork for giving me the courage to stand up for myself.
