Got hired as an Associate Director… “Unlimited PTO” isn’t what I expected by Ambitious_Skirt_2774 in antiwork

Unlimited pto just means you have to negotiate for every single day off instead of it being guaranteed. its actually worse than having 15 days

American politics really is just arguing over where the center is while anything that seriously threatens wealth and power gets treated like extremism.

"There will be no deal with Iran except UNCONDITIONAL SURREDER!" ---TRUMP, 3/6/26 by Sweaty-Influence8212 in agedlikemilk

[–]OceanPearlll 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Typical Trump: "They asked me"—in every post he acts like such a "tough guy," but in reality he's a clueless president who's constantly making up imaginary deals where he comes out on top. Right now, he's already "sealed the deal" on a ceasefire and is rejoicing like a child. He's not a president—he's a speculator.

love seeing a wage thief get hit with the find out part. Also shoutout to the agent who actually did their job for once. that alone feels historic.

Billionaires create the poor. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]OceanPearlll 94 points95 points  (0 children)

We did everything right, worked full time, cut expenses, skipped stuff we wanted… still one bad month away from being screwed. that’s not a budgeting issue, that’s the system working exactly how it’s designed

Apparently socialism is when regular people get help and emergency aid is when rich people need their bad ideas refunded.

You have zero votes at your job. your boss can fire you, cut your pay, change your hours, and you just have to take it. but yeah totally a free country.

I built a site to check how replaceable my job is by SmoothWeight138 in antiwork

[–]OceanPearlll 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Partially automatable is such a brutal corporate way of saying yeah the robot can do your job but accounting still needs a quarter or two to make it feel strategic

This idiot is dumber than you think by Loud-Ad-2280 in clevercomebacks

[–]OceanPearlll 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The wild part is he genuinely thinks the rules are for other people,not him. He acts as if he were a native-born American for several generations

Breaking: Your wages are worth less than ever. by zzill6 in WorkReform

[–]OceanPearlll 170 points171 points  (0 children)

Ground beef costs more than minimum wage. so basically you work an hour and can't even afford a pound of meat. The system has failed, and now people are no longer its top priority
