Update: '[I] woke the CEO up at midnight': Night shift worker calls 200 tech support clients in the middle of the night after boss tells them he 'doesn't want excuses'

You want phone calls? You got phone calls . That's totally fine by this overnight worker, since they usually barely call anyone during their shift anyway.

Update: 'My boss has not acknowledged my two-week notice': Toxic boss avoids talking to night shift worker about quitting up until their last day

This boss is competing in the petty Olympics with the way she treated her employee during their final weeks at the job.

But when you start asking around and everyone seems to have started less than six months ago, the warning sirens in your head might start to go off. This person shares that at their previous place of emplo…

'The GM did say he didn't care how I did my job': Hotel employee automates job to just one click after being denied a raise

This boss was so stingy that he wouldn't give an employee a raise up from $10 per hour. It's been a long time since $10 per hour was a competitive rate in most industries. Lots of states in the US have implemented $15 per hour minimums, but not everyone follows these guidelines. It's so awkward to ask for a raise and be turned down. You have to go to your boss, politely explain all the reasons you think you deserve more money, and then really advocate for yourself. No matter how great your pres…
