Retired employee shares 4 important rules he's learned in the workforce: 'Management is NOT your friend'

As you go through your years as an employee, sometimes, you've gotta learn things the hard way. From work-life balance to advocating for better working standards, we don't always know what's acceptable and what's not when we're new to the workforce. It's good to look back and reflect on how much you've changed since you started working. Maybe you used to try and put on a performance during a job interview, but now you're interviewing the employer, too. Or maybe you used to accept whatever...

'It’s so good to see him still fuming about it after months': Pierced employee out-logics manager and gets to continue wearing her piercings at work

The workforce has come a long way from its strict dress codes of the early 2000s. Now, business casual can include tattoos and piercings. However, great change doesn't come all at once, so for now, there are still places out there that will make you remove your piercing for some made up rule. One woman started a job and was told she must remove her industrial ear piercing. And industrial is a piercing in the ear that is a bar going from a hole made at the top of the ear to the side middle. It's…

'I get injured and [there's] no loyalty': Employee on disability leave gets fired after missing 3 weeks of work; the Internet calls out a broken system of hypocritical bosses

Companies today are always complaining about labor shortages and how the workforce is getting ‘too lazy’ to go back to work. Au contraire you silly nepo-CEO's, it's not that there aren't any employees willing to work anymore, it's just that they're not willing to go back to work with no benefits, meager salaries, and to work overtime lining the pockets of a hypocritical boss that sends one email a week for a $500k annual salary.

'I pointedly told her that I AM a millennial and...': Boomer MIL thinks millennials don't want to work, hardworking millennial son-in-law puts her in her place

It is another classic boomer vs millennial dilemma . Here we have a millennial son-in-law having to stand up for his generation (yet again) to his boomer mother-in-law who calls anybody younger than her a millennial, and millennials are lazy folk who don't want to work. This story takes place in an amusement park. A millennial family with the boomer grandparents included, took a spring vacation to an amusement park. The park had just opened for the season, so it wasn't as full of visitors, but…

'I finally told my manager that I will NOT be working on anything outside my scope of responsibilities': People share how to stand up for yourself at work

As us millennials and Gen Z start to take over the workforce, we see more and more that no, your hard work does not get rewarded unless you…
