Antiwork

I work for the Public Defenders of my county as a legal assistant. Today hit the point where I feel livid with the management there between my actual supervisor/manager and one of the attorneys I assist. I assist a female attorney and she’s proven today she’s a total btch (and I’m a F). Yesterday I took a call from client’s counselor expressing that the client hasn’t heard from the female attorney and is concerned because they have court coming up. I wrote it down and told them I’ll pass the message to the attorney. I typed up the message in our case system and alerted the attorney. This morning I got a response from the attorney in the most btchiest way: “why am I not getting calls transferred? I was available. There is no need for the long note…” 1) my note/message wasn’t even long 2.) it’s protocol for the…

Can I get out of paying back my bonus if I’m in a hostile work environment?

Hi! I'm fairly new to this subreddit. So please be patient with me. I am fascinated by it tbh. I personally never rly knew anyone who advocated this. I am intrigued. But, to the real question: What would you do with no work? I mean I assume y'all want a world where you don't have to spend your time gathering food yourself (like some kind of farm). I'm not rly asking about how we would survive without working (that is not my question rn) But assuming everything we needed was delivered to us without us having to do anything, what would you do? I personally can't stand not working. I am always at my best at work. I deliver 110% at work and am the best at what I do. When I get done with work I'm…. well I'm not un-productive but I'm nothing like what I am at work.…

Like is this legal? A work day is 12-8 and if it’s 730 I have to wait another 30 to be allowed to clock out and leave other wise im considered a walk out. I just don’t see how this is a legal thing. Im guessing it is as I can’t seem to find anything online. In Tennessee forgot to add sorry

Having multiple issues with a current employer who is jerking me around. One issue is a potential workers comp claim. I spoke to a lawyer and they said that a workers comp claim will show up as a “black mark” on my employment record forever. Why? Despite how things should be, why would this reflect poorly on me if I wasn't the one who screwed up?

So I've noticed a lot of the older crowd I work with (40s and up) don't seem to have a social circle or hobbies outside work. In turn they bring a lot of their problems into the job, have inappropriate/private (or if I were having the issue I would want it private) conversations with other coworkers, and seem genuinely miffed when I don't want to meet up for drinks/go to company events/socialize off the job. Obviously this is anecdotal, but I think it explains part of the culture war/”nobody wants to work” thing; for older folks there seems to be family and then the social circle is primarily centered around the office. Just an observation

I am a European who's been living in the US for about 3 years. I'm working in a professional field in which employees are required to document the time they spent working on specific tasks in a timesheet that needs to be submitted at the end of each week. So far, so normal. Every now and then, the company has corporate calls in which they talk about things like the state of the company or about technological advancements in the field. This is where my confusion kicks in. Charge codes are never provided for these (typically 1 hour long) calls. I asked some of my closest colleagues if they charge time for that, and no one seems to do that. The company does, however, indicate that they want every person relevant to the field (or just everyone in case of the state of company calls) to attend. What that actually…
