Antiwork

Asked for Thursday night off, short notice but we're a day ahead, boss said we'll see. Knowing that means get the department ahead, I put in a small amount of effort and get most of Fridays work done, first shift will easily finish the rest today, then start mondays work and they'll finish that on Friday. Now it's close to time to leave and boss comes up and says no. They need me to keep the 3 other people in the area going with work. Not my problem. They've had 3 years to train someone to fill in if I need off. Never even tried. So calling off Thursday night now, still get to use vacation time. Might call off Sunday too because fuck em. I only get $17 an hour, gas stations here start at that, so nothing special here. The job is all kinds of fucked up, but…

Just a quick question! When I send my resignation by email do I send it from my personal email or work email? I have not discussed it yet with my work place, they will find out when they receive the email.

Hi – if this post isn't appropriate for this sub please feel free to remove it, but I didn't know where else to turn. I'm 16 and this is my first ever job – I'm a cleaner at a boarding school in the UK. All my coworkers are at least 40 years older than me. They seemed nice at first but keep making offhand racist/transphobic comments. It makes me extremely uncomfortable, and I want to call them out, but don't want all my coworkers to dislike me as this is a job where I work closely with them. Maybe that's just being cowardly? I don't know what to do, as management is of a similar age and haven't policed these comments before. I am also related closely to one of the managers and don't want to upend her workplace. I don't know what to do and would really appreciate some…

So adjusted for current prices, inflation, and general cost of living, the federal minimum wage should be around $14-16 usd, just to scrape by and not starve, and an actual somewhat comfortable income minimum wage would be around $25-27 an hour, which is what many people make with a college degree, (only making said degree less valuable in retrospect). Because of this, you have this “hustle/ grind” culture which is just bullshit. You have all these young people working anywhere from 9 to 12 hour shifts just to get by, and they think they’re gonna make it out of their current financial situation, but in reality, they’re just slaving away at a shitty underpaying job to afford a house and a nice car, which is just sad. Nobody in such a developed society should have to work 12 hour days 5 days a week to get by, that is just…

I have been working for my uncle now (under a contract) for about 4 months under my own LLC doing some handyman jobs and working at his auto shop. I met with him today to get paid (haven’t been paid in 9 weeks, we agreed to be paid monthly) and he refused to pay me everything that was owed and got very angry at me He owes me about $7000 I got paid $4250. The reason he says he refuses to pay me is because I didn’t take some photographs for him in a timely manner to sell his vehicles, and some of the work I’ve been doing for him has took longer than he wants. The contract says “non-exclusive tasking as directed, to be performed by persons of your choosing by means of your choosing at times convenient to your organization as requested by me or persons working for…
