Gun pulled on me, told to work…

I worked (I quit) at PCC Community Markets and on the way to work I had a gun pulled on me in a road rage incident. I was about 10 mins from work and about 40 mins from home. So I called 911 and they said they would meet me at PCC. When I arrived at work I finally realized what had happened and started crying my eyes out. I went into the store and asked for my lead, when she came to me I told her (while sobbing) what happened. She told me “Oh, ok.. well talk to the cops then clock in and work late”. Me being in shock said “okay..” I then walked out to my car and waited for my boyfriend to arrive. I talked to the cops which didn't help anything and made me feel worse (another story). When my boyfriend arrived I told him…

I feel like I need to quit but I don’t know if I should

I will try to keep this as brief as possible, but there’s a lot. I’m at a complete loss right now and I really appreciate anyone that takes the time to read this and give advice. I’m so tired of this. General background info: 1. I’m 20F, have worked in food service for 2 years, and 6 months in retail at my current job. I’ve always been very good at the jobs I’ve had, based on feedback from bosses, coworkers, and customers. 2. The only issue I’ve had at jobs is being late, admittedly, but never more than 10 minutes. Every time you are late/call off/break any other rule at my current job, it gets recorded. 3. My assistant manager, Melissa, knows my mom because they go to the same gym, but they aren’t friends, just acquaintances. She didn’t get me the job, I applied through the website and interviewed…

There’s a pinned comment telling me to cross post this ad to facilitate discussion, but for some “strange” reason I can’t. I bet it’s just a glitch and totally isn’t intentional to protect the advertisers, right?

Questions about automating my Job ?

Hi their, I work as a Data Entry for a biotech company and basically we get a blood samples with referrals and I have to enter the data on the referral to the computer, and after doing so, I scan the referral into the case. But I have two concerns regarding the automation process: 1) Can I take the pdf referrals do some experiments on it on my own time on my personal computer giving the fact no one will ever have a look at them nor will I upload them to any kind of cloud storage ? 2) if for any reason my boss knew about the script that I wrote I'm obliged to give him my script (I know I can choose not to because I work on it without getting paid to do so, but is their a way he can force me to ? PS: I…

Micro managing boss

Hello! I am a manager at JCPenneys for a certain department. And my job requirements are to make the schedule for my team and I, approve time off for them. On Mondays we have a back office day where we do paperwork, schedules, meetings etc. my department gets no hours what’s so ever, when I leave someone else comes in. There is rarely 2 people working at the same time. Because of that I do not get a office day, I have to be on the floor. I currently have been having extreme issues with my General Manager. She is extremely micromanaging. She changes my teams and I schedule constantly. When my team asks for time off I always give them that time off and have coverage. My team is very good and I feel like if they are asking for that time off they should be able to get…

I’m starting to hate my new job

I'm stating to get sick of this fucking job. It's a social work position, but they're making do all this bullshit transportation of clients at times. Luckily they give out a company car, but I'm starting to wake up consistently at 6 in the morning to transport one of my clients to school, and the kid lives 1 hour from his school. I've been driving 2 hours every single day and my boss still gives me shit about overtime, even though I am consistently working 45+ hours a week. My boss will literally go through my timesheet and change it so I barely get paid what I'm working. It annoys me, and I don't feel like I can change jobs because it would take forever to get a new position that pays well and at least has some kind of PTO. I'm sick of driving everyday, and doing home visits,…
