Does anyone actually like any of their coworkers?

Seriously the canned laughter, forced conversations, the petty gossip, the stupid alliances. Like would any of you give them a second glance on the street? I say hi and bye and even that’s a lot to muster…

Might be fired just because I’m part-time

So first off, I’m part time because I’m going to school full time. I pay out of pocket and need to work a decent amount of hours to do so. I’ve been at this job for almost three years now and this 4th quarter specifically seems like it’s going to suck (I work in a fulfillment center not Amazon for those who are wondering). I say that because according to a former supervisor (who I still work with just department changes) told me that management is handing out “agreements” to all part time employees saying if we don’t work Black Friday through the following Tuesday then we will be terminated. I have checked the employee handbook and there is no information about part time overtime, which I’m assuming means that “mandatory” overtime doesn’t apply. In fact, that’s what I’ve been told by multiple supervisors and leads that I have worked…

I’m thinking about setting a target based shorter week for my 15 people team. What are your thoughts?

Basically title. I want to increase productivity for my team and I am not able to raise salaries as of now. My idea is to give a day off to the workers that have reached the set targets in the previous week, making it a 4-day week. Of course, the targets will be reachable every week. What are your thoughts?

Help me find solutions please, I can’t keep doing this anymore

I'm a 33 year old male. I'm disabled (invisible disabilities). I'm not a healthy person. I cannot work full-time. I'm currently a teacher, but I cannot keep doing this. I've also done other jobs and it's been the same problem, or worse. I'm completely alone in this world. No family, friends, no support system or safety net whatsoever. I need to find a non-dehumanizing job that pays decently. One that preferably pays enough to afford my own apartment (without needing roommates) and have some money left at the end of the month. Also, a job where I interact with as few people as possible. My preferred option would be to find a 100% remote job in the USA that let's me work and live in Latin America. I've got no coding skills or aptitude. Just a degree in teaching. I'm so desperate and tired. I'm actually dead, and been dead…

Is it true that if an employer calls itself a “family,” you should run away? I was offered a job with a place where the recruiter called the place a family and it made me skeptical.

What is the Point of the anti work subreddit? What are y’all’s beliefs

By the name it seems you think no one should work or at least you shouldn’t. But obviously that’s impossible someone has to work for everyone to get food and water. So what are y’all’s beliefs
