'A job perk that's a massive red flag': Soulless company offers a food pantry for workers struggling to make ends meet instead of paying a living wage

Sometimes the perks of a job are just another way they're deceiving you. They make it sound appealing in the application and the interview, but then you get there and you realize mandated company bowling outings are more of a nuisance than they are a perk. This is true of a few things workplaces offer to make themselves seem more appealing. It's part of the bait-and-switch culture of the corporate world. They lure you in with ping pong in the break room and then you're slowly driven crazy by th…

Tech assistant throws herself a $2000 going away party while her boss is out of town, doesn't actually quit: 'She called it a 'social experiment''

Being an assistant is a tricky job. You have to work incredibly closely with your boss and act on their behalf. And if you're a personal assistant, you probably have to help with aspects of their life that aren't work-related. You might have to schedule appointments, pick up their dry cleaning, run personal errands, and deal with their family. This can lead to a blurring of the professional and the personal world. You're in their lives, and they're in yours. But it's still a job. You can't lean…

'She is so hurt that I wrote it': Fed-up worker writes review about toxic ex-boss who told her not to ask for a raise, boss lashes out in scathing text message

It's always a little bit awkward to leave a job. You have your reasons for leaving, but you might not be on the best of terms with everyone there. You might be leaving because of a toxic environment or a toxic boss. You want to leave behind a place that made you feel bad about yourself or didn't value your contributions. If that's the case, then you might want to leave as quietly as possible, out like a lamb, because ruffling any feathers might make you feel worse. But you still need an outlet…

'You're literally being exploited': Unpaid internship asks young employee to work 12 hours with just a 30 minute break, lashes out when she refuses

Unpaid internships are one of the biggest scams of our current work culture. We all agree that internships are valuable to young people who want to get a taste of a certain field, gain some practical experience, and start collecting references for their resumes. Moreover, interns are valuable to companies to train prospective hires, gain some new insight, and build their programs. But where, in all of that, does it say that it doesn't need to pay? You're doing real work, after all, and work sho…

Disrespectful 20-year-old loses ride to work after continually littering in coworker's car, gets fired for tardiness: 'There were ants inside of my vehicle'

Carpooling can be a wonderful thing . If you alternate, it saves you money on gas, it helps the environment, and it gives you a way to bond with your coworkers. Many work relationships are formed on the way to and from work. Commuting is something you have to do anyway, and it gives you a chance to chat about the goings-on of your workplace. But if the carpooling arrangement gets to be too one-sided, things can go wrong. Going to work can be a sacred time to gather yourself and your thoughts be…

'That's going to be one tough job to fill': Baffling job position pays $16/ hour and requires worker to share hotel rooms, interviewer laughs in recruiter's face

Anyone who's looking for a job right now could tell you that it's rough out there. Finding a job can be a difficult, arduous task, especially if you're just starting. You quickly find out that you'll have to do some pretty major compromising.

Toxic workplace mandates monthly 8 AM meetings on Sundays, employees search for loopholes: 'Sounds like mandatory pay for your time'

Everyone needs rest, it's a non-negotiable . You need time to sleep, absolutely. That's a given. But you also need time to rest your mind from work. You need days where nobody outside of your family asks anything of you, and you can just spend time doing things you enjoy doing. Perhaps you're into needlepoint, or perhaps you're in a flag football league. Whatever it is, you need unstructured time to feed those parts of yourself. And work isn't allowed to swoop in and take that away from you. Th…

'The front desk clerk looked horrified and apologized': Woman drives 30 minutes to job interview at hotel chain, is sent away before the interview starts

Interviewing for a job is one of the most nerve-racking experiences we all must go through. Having to sell yourself to a stranger on the spot is not something that most of us are comfortable with. You come with your talking points, ready to run through your work history and share your skills, and you hope that nerves don't overtake you when you get there. Unless you're a psycho, the commute to the interview is most likely an unpleasant experience, full of anticipation and anxiety. So when you f…
