Antiwork

The job position has been posted since I started there (they need a full time employee and I could only do part time due to LIVING OUTSIDE OF THE STATE WHERE THE JOB WAS LOCATED; my skills are specialized and they were desperate to find anyone to help them out. I flew in/out every day for work), they've treated me like absolute shit over the past eight months of working there for no reason, and my contract states that I do not need to provide any notice whatsoever. I found a significantly better (and higher paying) job, so I resigned. I gave them a week's notice to be courteous (could have given 2 weeks, but I wanted to take a week between jobs to relax, get my routine back in order, etc), and they're still talking shit about me. Die mad, bitches.

My current job is running me ragged and my boss expects me to grin and bear it but also I need to relax and take time for myself as the ASM. I am currently setting up an interview for a new job but want to professionally say I am being taken advantage of and my boss won't listen to me. What can I say to that?

We’re both 17f and i work in a deli department and she was in the bakery department of the same store. Management had no idea we were dating and just assumed we were friends. Well the other day she walked to work with me on her day off and kissed me by the entrance and the store manager saw it and fired her. She said that employees can’t date(we’ve been together nearly 4 years and lived together prior to both of us getting a job there). She was fired instead of me because my department is understaffed and I nearly quit on the spot. She was an amazing worker and we never kissed at work or let our relationship get in the way of productivity and it’s bullshit to fire her when it’s not even a new development like we met at work and then started dating. We’re both pissed…

The reason I'm flagging this as NSFW is because of the exact subject matter I'm skipping out on. Once a year we have this huge all-staff meeting to go over the most mundane shit you can imagine. 8-3 going over policies and procedures then throwing in some random other “training” to pad out the time (this year its on homelessness. Not a bad thing to talk about. We live in a city that regularly drops below 0 degrees (f) throughout the winter and it's fantastic that they're going to have a group of people who get paid shit start feeling guilty for not giving to the homeless, but I digress). One of our bosses/presenters is taking on the responsibility of talking about sexual abuse prevention. We work with vulnerable adults, so this is a very important thing to be aware off and to look for signs of. Thing is, this…

Just absolutely fed up with corporate greed and bs companies. Worked for this company for five months.Stopped coming in, now they come up with random deductions to not pay out my last check. It really sucks because I really needed that but I know it’s only on me to overcome all obstacles put in front of me.

Writing this for a friend who doesn't have reddit. I am on mobile so please excuse atrocious formatting and mild errors. TL;DR at bottom. Friend, we'll call Bob (not real name) was out of work for 5 weeks and got asked to come work for this guy we'll call DB. (This story takes place in western North Carolina). Friend is a fabricator and specialty painter (UV, gel, industrial, etc) and is very good at his job. Last job was making 19.50/hr working insane hours every week. His specialty is only used in 4 places on the east coast so it is a very niche field of work. So DB wanted Bob to come work for him, he had seen Bob's work and desperately needed someone with his skillset. He offered him $20/hr starting and $25 after first 2 weeks if he is as good as he seems. DB job offer…

Hello, I am a college sophomore with no prior job experience, and I have been applying for jobs since late July. I do not know how much information I can provide, but on Indeed, I applied for a Business Representative position listed under a company called ezWay. It stated that it allowed for flexible scheduling, with employees only needing to work 3-4 hours on weekdays and earning up to $3000 a month (at least $30/hour). That may raise some red flags but after applying to 20 other jobs that either declined my application or didn't even respond after two weeks, I just wanted to test my luck. I am only picky about flexible scheduling because I am a full-time university student who has enough financial support at the moment. Anyway, I applied on Indeed and received an email the next day from a real estate company asking me to continue…

The past 3 months I’ve been working 43 since I moved out and live on my own. And I’m really bothered because before Labor Day I asked for full time and the store manager hemmed and hawed and shrugged his shoulders and made excuses. And low and behold I worked 43 hours the holiday week and worked on the holiday and received no holiday pay. I’m tired of the exploitation. I’ve held this job for 8 years currently and didn’t have need for full time due to life situation. Now is different.

Today I quit my full time job… I feel a massive weight lifted off my chest. Toxicity is a problem, especially when you feel it coming from yourself…. Time to work for myself and on myself.
