Just because the journey's over doesn't mean it has to end. Every ending is a new beginning and offers a chance for reflection on the experiences and lessons learned along the way. Of course, when you're quitting a dead-end job that you've been stuck in for the last ten years… you might not find all that much to reflect on. And the things you've experienced? They're probably best forgotten... What with the unnecessary meetings, micromanaged lunch breaks, egotistical leaders, and general toxic a…

It's absolutely mind-boggling that some companies are dumb enough to approve a new hire (from within the company) to replace an employee, without alerting said employee of their firing. How awkward. This is what happened in this very humiliating case for a young worker who was trying to prove herself. She heard via office gossip that the company had someone in mind for her position… while she still had the role. Apparently, they felt ‘Shelby’ would be a better fit. Things didn't exactly go acco…

There's a significant lack of consistency in the pay scales of many organizations — especially small businesses. You may be running the entire day-to-day operation of the business, pushing (unsuccessfully) for a raise for years, only to discover that the guy your boss has just hired to make Tik-Tok videos is making more money than you.

When you're in charge, it's important that you lead by example, setting the tone for how others should behave, conduct themselves, and work towards the business's goals.

But the reality is that a lot of “leaders” are lazy, petty, vitriolic, and prone to emotional outbursts. They're not in charge because they're a knight in shining armor a…

These are the types of "leaders" who will gladly tell you that "It's just business" when they're laying you off or refusing you a raise. Yet, when you find a better opportunity and give notice, they take it personally, acting as if you've betrayed them. Suddenly, "It's just business" isn't valid, and the employer wonders why all these employees end up "Turning against them," utterly blind to the fact that they are the common denominator.

For some reason, employers appear consistently willing to hire a new employee for a higher salary and better deal overall than they will ever budge to give to an existing employee, leaving the myth of loyalty to your company doing anything for you lurching in the wind. More and more often, people are taking to the internet to detail their troubles trying to get raises out of their employers, and Redditor u/willcalliv did just that when they sent this detailed list of demands to their employer k…

Yeah you can't do that.
