Antiwork

So today at work I was screamed at by my lead. This dude lost his mind because I was doing other work and he wanted help unloading trucks. He said “hey will you unload this truck.” From about 50-60 feet away. I replied “oh yeah I didn’t notice there were other trucks.” In which he replied, screaming at the top of lungs so angry just cussing me out. That was my LEAD. I look at my supervisor and I say “wtf was that” and the sup. replied “I’ll have a talk with him.” So in other words the supervisor did nothing and the lead was met with no consequences. I talk to the manger and he says the same thing. I’ve worked at this company for long enough to know that nothing is going to happen. I left a voicemail with HR. I found out what the lead did is…

If you made guaranteed passive income of about $45k-$50k a year, where would you go to stretch out your dollar? Currently looking for ideas. I’ve lived in Vegas for the past 4 years and am sick of it.

at the beginning of this week i was greeted with some not so pleasant changes in my workplace. i work in a place where moving spaces is not attainable, and due to a very minor issue i was forced to move spaces and work in a completely different building, so far disconnected from any of the other work i’ve done. the way it works for me is we plan 8 weeks in advance our agendas, and have to meet what we have planned by the time the next one rolls around. the agenda i formerly planned began this wednesday, but being moved to this new building means i’m having to come up with these agendas day of instead of already having them laid out. this makes getting work done in a timely manner impossible, since i’m catering to a new set of information and demands. anyways, as soon as this…

Hello! I’m curious on if/how the following is legal. I work for a multibillion dollar company with 32000 employees. I’m remote, located in Texas, and I’m on salary (after being hourly for 6 years- 8 years with company). Twice a year, we have inventory- my issue is that the Friday and Saturday of inventory weekend, we’re expected to work our normal hours (8am-5pm) then arrive at our designated branch to assist with inventory, which sometimes means staying as late as 1am on Friday and coming in from 6am-??? On Saturday. Most hourly workers are exempt from this starting last year, to cut costs I imagine, but being salary means I get no overtime/additional compensation for working these much longer days, and I’m required to work inventory and not allowed to request off during this time. I don’t get any of the time back the following week. I couldn’t imagine a…

The assistant Manager is one of the worst people I ever met she loudly accosted me multiple times in front of customers when she wasn't in uniform on boxing day and most of her complaints were about me not finding the same customers product when I tried to tell her multiple times that the regional manager said he'd do it, but all she did was talk over me and she even threatened me saying she better not see me at the service desk again even though the manager literally asked me to take a customer call there on the PA. More recently she decided to make me stay exclusively at the front register meaning I have to deal with every customer when not on my break and sometimes I don't even get mine, but what makes it even worse is on the 1st which was a weekend she wasn't wearing…

I worked at a company for 2 years now and I don't get breaks like every other employee at our workplace does. Everyone else gets a break every 2 hours of work. However I do not. I have to call management and ask them if it's okay for me to go to the bathroom or get something to drink. Is that normal or is that something that's unusual. Reference I work the main gate for a salvage company and I work 11 hours a day 6 days a week.

Previous manager promised us 13/hr raise if we worked hard enough. That raise was mandatory after 3 month probationary period. But she held off from it. Decided to gift it to us after RENTING the store out to another manager. Yes, we didn’t get that raise until AFTER she left. The current manager also spoke of a bonus for working over the holidays. Never got that. We asked him about a raise because we really are hard workers. We were going in on short notices to show dedication like some suckers or something. We were really going the extra mile helping other workers. Ya know, like a goofy. We bring up getting paid more and instead we get scrutinized about the irrelevant issues. We were “given” a 65¢ raise by our boss. As of Jan 1, 2023, in Colorado, minimum wage was lifted to 13.65. Workers are constantly late, socializing…

I work 4 days on-site 1 day remote and my office is a 10 minute commute. We just brought on a big client I’m expected to go on-site for but it’ll require me taking the train and it’s basically 4 hours round trip, 2 days a week now. On top of 2 days on-site at my usual office. I’m being offered an $80 travel allowance and the commute itself will cost $40. But I’m not sure how to approach the 4 hours out of my day this will take from me…

Recently I lost my $20/hr technician job at an unnamed cable company due to an overly expensive damage claim I caused so I've been searching for jobs relating to my future field. Issue is that I don't graduate with my associates degree until next year and I only have a certificate. So I decided to simply just include that I already have it and just apply for jobs I have knowledge in already. In fact as I'm trying this I just got a call and an interview set up for a job I applied to an hour ago. Any advice to help me through this? I have the skills to hide the fact that I don't possess the degree until I actually receive it.
