We’re told we shouldn’t tie our self-worth to our ability to work, but that’s easier said than done. When you meet a stranger, one of the first things they ask is, «What do you do?» which is a fantastic question to answer when you work for a meme website, but it’s more challenging when you’re …

Supervisor writes up warehouse employee for not smiling enough at work: ‘I work 10-hour shifts moving heavy boxes in a windowless building where we’re not allowed to have earbuds, take phone calls, or speak unless it’s job-related’
Working always has some element of performance. I remember my first day at my first ever job, my boss told me that my voice didn’t sound excited enough for customers. I was just talking the way I usually do, which I’d venture to say is more enthusiastic and bubbly than most people. But once I …

Company lays off senior employee 2 weeks before Christmas, asks her to redo part of an old project 6 months later: ‘They barely gave me any severance. I was unemployed for 6 months.’
There’s something so definitive about firing or breaking up with somebody. If you do it, you must be 100% okay with never receiving anything from them ever again. You will never get another hour of work from an employee you fire. You may never see your ex again after breaking up with them, let alone …

If there’s one thing I hate, it’s tardiness. I’m not talking about someone being late once, but rather chronic lateness that persists without resolution. I know that every time I hang out with one friend that shall remain nameless, the train is not running 20 minutes behind, despite their claims. They chose to leave when …

Many people believe they cannot live in high-cost-of-living areas like New York or San Francisco on a modest salary. I find it somewhat silly when someone claims it’s literally impossible to live in these places if you make under $ 100,000. It is absolutely possible to live there on half of that, but you have …
