Guy Accidentally Becomes Ghost Employee With No Work to Do After Boss Gets Fired

Every underachiever has the same dream job: one that doesn't require them to do any work . Achieving this sort of career in doing absolutely nothing is pretty rare, but stumbling into one completely by accident is the stuff of fairytales. This is precisely what happened to u/jerichomega , who recently confessed to r/antiwork that they basically won the job lottery. After their direct manager got the boot, OP had no one to answer to and miraculously, no one has given them any work to do for seve…

'We are professionals and that is what's expected of us': Awful Boss Demands Employees Work 60+ Hours Per Week

You can only work so many hours every week before you crack. While some think 40 hours a week is a back-breaking amount of working hours, others must tolerate 50-60 hours of weekly work to stay afloat financially. In my opinion, that's when you start getting a bit loopy. If you're working nearly every day without any breaks, you put yourself at risk for long-term health issues and general distress. If you have no time for loved ones or hobbies, then what is the hard work really for? Some people…

Underpaid Worker Berated by Boss for Salvaging Perfectly Good Food From Dumpster

When I was a teenager, a certain upscale grocery store chain in my hometown got exposed for dumping bleach into their dumpsters (usually full of perfectly good food) to prevent people from dumpster diving. When I found out about this, I was dumbfounded. Did they really think the sort of people who could afford to shop at their bougie grocery stores would immediately stop shopping and start rummaging through their dumpsters the moment they found out they throw away perfectly good food? No, obvio…

Story about a rude manager who rudely pressures employee to eat lunch with their coworkers

Unreasonable Manager Pressures Employee To Eat Lunch With Their Coworkers

Remember the days when finding the right place to eat lunch in the cafeteria was the most high-stake decision you could make? When you're in school, it really is critical to find a group and stick with them during your 45 minutes of freedom. If you don't have a group you can tolerate eating with every day, you might end up eating lunch in the stairwell, which I definitely did not do during my sophomore year of high school. Luckily, eating lunch alone is a lot less of a big deal when you're an a…

Workers Discuss Email Etiquette After Company Rejects Half of Employee's Vacation Time Request

It is hard to believe how many people can't craft a proper email . I didn't wholly learn the art and science of professional emailing until I was a junior in college, and who knows where I would be if I didn't take particular classes that taught me that. I'll give you some general tips if you're an amateur emailer. Don't be overly wordy. You won't sound cold if you cut right to the chase, trust me. Don't thank someone in advance for something they haven't agreed to do. Use a simple sign-off at…

Genius HR Karen Calls Coworker 'Dumb Blonde' in Front of Her Boss

I have never been discriminated against on the ground of being blonde. A blessed bottle of bleach touched my scalp for the first time when I was twenty, and I've been addicted ever since. Being blonde has gotten me nothing but compliments and a couple of wild assumptions that it's natural, which is absurd considering the brown caterpillars that are my eyebrows. "Dumb blonde" is one of those playground insults. It can be exceedingly hurtful to kids who are called that, but kids usually grow out…

Boomer Accuses Younger Job Hunter of Laziness, Gets Yelled At In Public

Anyone who has applied for a job in the past couple of years knows it's a very tricky process. So much goes into job hunting, and it's not as simple as being the most qualified person for a position. Job interviews sometimes feel like they're taking place in an alternate reality; how you articulate yourself must be carefully curated to make you sound like a good worker. It's unnatural, but it's a bare necessity if you're going to get a job. With remote work becoming far more common, competition…

Boss Accuses Employee of 'Quiet Quitting' Because He Works a Mere 40 Hours a Week

Weird Company Bans Salary Negotiation Because It 'Benefits People With Privilege'

Salary negotiation is one of the most challenging parts of getting a new job. It can feel tough to assert yourself and fight for what you're worth, especially when the company is lowballing you. If you can stand your ground for a better salary, it can significantly help your career and your quality of life in the long run. Unfortunately, not all companies are open to negotiating salaries, even from candidates with excellent experience. Still, companies that aren't the most accepting of negotiat…
