Antiwork

What do I need to do if not?

I hate it with a passion. I don't know why. I just can't.

Hey guys long story short and I'm lost in life, about to be 24 and I went to trade school for diesel mechanics but I found out that I was in it for the money but every job here is the same and toxic culture/ favoritism. starting to feel that this was not my destined career. Has anyone else experienced this or have any advice.

When my manager found out, she said “thanks, that us greatly appreciated!”, but still hasn't responded when I asked if I should submit it for overtime. I'm not looking for a solution, just wanted to vent a bit.

My work just announced a new holiday schedule. Starting next year we get 8 scheduled holidays and ONE new floating holiday. This floating holiday is to be used on presidents day or juneteenth or veterans day or memorial day. You only get one of those 4 day off. This is kind of shitty but here is the worst part. For the other 3 days “the office will officially be closed and employs will work from home” and in a all hands meeting they said that we should not schedule any client meetings and set our auto email response to say that the office is closed. The company wants to look like they are giving us more “holidays that represent our diverse team” but we are expected to work on most of those “new holidays” while making it look to the outside world that we aren't working. TLDR: I have to…

There have been a lot of posts and comments here about being strong armed into donating for the boss or a party, and employers outsourcing caring for employees in crowd funding without bothering themselves. There's one program I know that's awful about this and I wanted to know I'd there are others like it, with forced donations and nothing the company helps with but still takes all the credit for. And I'm sure there are so please share your rage against whatever similar bs you had to do with me so we may rage together. For mine I picked a program from Cracker Barrel called Cracker Barrel Cares. Cracker Barrel Cares is a nice easy program that you can apply for to help get you through some personal tragedy or period of hardship. All you have to do as an employee is full out a bunch of forms, hope you…

I work residential for brain injury rehabilitation. We are short staffed at a ridiculous amount. Last night I had to work two houses at the same time. They are right next to each other. I got my normal wage for the first house and only 5$ an hour for the second house. I want full pay for having to take care of 6 people instead of the max 3. I said I don't think I'll come in this evening. Less than 8 hours off work. They threatened me with a write up for job abandonment if I did so.

As the title suggests I am looking for a “professional” reference. Generic “yeah we worked in sales at XYZ” and he was great, worked hard etc. Please PM me if able to help or if we can work out a deal. Thank you so much! P.S. If anyone needs a reference I can help in exchange!
