Denied vacation for my honeymoon, because work changed shift time frames.

My husband's job did have him working 12hours, 2 days on, 2 days off, 3 days on, then 2 days off, 2 days on, 3 days off, and repeat. He put in vacation for our honeymoon 2 months ago when his schedule would have only called for 2 days off. They have now swapped him to working 4 12s every week and say they can no longer allow him the time off he requested because it's too many days in a row, since now he would have to take 4 days off. I'm just so disgusted.

Hooray for obvious favoritism

Well I just need to vent cause I'm very frustrated right now. I've dealt with alot of crap at my first job. Harassment both sexual and non. Sabotage of my line. People throwing away my paperwork on me so I had to redo it. Stealing my lunch, pens and headphones. I mean pretty much everything you can think of. I mean if I still had my former natural haircolor of blonde, they'd probably harrass me for it to. But I thought there was finally a glimmer of hope today. A guy in qa is retiring soon and since I have previous experience I thought I could get transferred to the position to get away from the hateful five jerks I gotta deal with on the daily. My supervisor was even backing me since he knows about my previous experience and how hard I work. I got denied, because supposedly I…

As retaliation I lost my job

Long story short, I worked for this sports camps company. I had complained that my SSN was not being used in my paystubs. I was informed that it would be changed & updated. Time passed and nothing changed. When I asked for them again, I was let go. They tried to make me sign a severance but I didn’t. I have no proof of employment for the last year. I’ve called the ssn office, unemployment office and IRS. The company did not use my correct ssn, I can’t get benefits. Life’s been hard and I needed to vent – thank you.

When your boss is so tone deaf that he thinks he’s doing us a favor…

Everyone and their mother has had a tone deaf boss. When they're so oblivious to how what they're doing/saying actually lands with their employees that you can hardly believe anyone could be so obtuse. So I'm at work the other day, shit talking with my favorite coworker as usual, when he tells me “I overheard BossMan talking about how he's thinking of giving us off for the day after Thanksgiving this year, that'd be cool.” I agree with him, it sure would be, but I doubt it because they're pretty stingy with the holidays they do give, and I have literally been told by BossMan that the owner complains about paying us on any holidays at all. But, much to my surprise later that day we receive a company wide email saying we have both Thanksgiving day AND the day after off! Sweet! But, wait, huh? “…you will be off…

ULPT: if you’re doing bad at work and/or think you may be fired soon, tell your boss you have had a mental breakdown

There’s a good chance the company will be scared to fire you, since you can now claim they let you go because of your mental health. Especially in large corporations where it’s not worth the risk of being sued. I call it “playing the crazy card” and it paid for my beach house.
