Antiwork

Pulled into HR three times in the last two weeks, you won’t believe what it was for this time

The first time I got reprimanded for eating at my desk (which everyone does). Ok whatever. Second time for a supposed dress code infraction (wearing leggings with a long tunic), even though we don’t have a written dress code to follow. Sure, I won’t wear leggings, but jeans are allowed? I’ll wear those. Today it was because my work posted a job in the same department as me (emailed to my work email) just one step up from my position. Same manager and everything. And I sent my resume in FROM MY WORK EMAIL THAT THE JOB POSTING WAS SENT TO. HR told me it was highly in appropriate and they’re considering pulling my application because of it. Because I applied for a job in the same company from my company email rather than my personal. Fuck this. I am done. EDIT: this is a government job, by the way.
