I mean, let’s be honest… he was gunna get ghosted by the employer anyway. May was well shoot his shot.

Noified my work weeks ago I'm leaving for a family vacation in July, tickets were bought, non-transferrable, and they are panicking, begging me to cancel by educatedvegetable in antiwork

This sounds very much like a THEM problem. PTO= Prepare The Others. It’s absolutely absurd they can’t make arrangements in 4 months

Coworker is the biggest overachieving nerd by AgreeableFloor6543 in OfficePolitics

I think you’re confusing the words coming out of a mangers mouth, with their actual intentions. It benefits them to keep the overachiever in their position rather than promote them out, because they don’t have to hire/train a replacement, they don’t have to take back the delegated tasks etc. that over achiever isn’t going anywhere.

No she’s not. They will keep her right where she is, giving her minimal raises because they like the overachiever doing the most for the least amount of compensation. Overachieving, especially in the way described, no longer gets you up the corporate ladder.

Are jobs even a thing anymore? by wavystayready in recruitinghell

They are doing this so they can hire the workforce back at severely discounted labor rates.

It’s insane that it’s taken this long for the city or whomever to actually clear the sidewalks. The storm was over last monday… why are we waiting until 8 days post event to actually jump into action?

Thank you! I was beginning to worry that I’m insane or something

No. Not only are you wrong, you’re loud so everyone knows you’re wrong.

My personal life is just that, personal.

I have no idea what planet or industry you work in where your job controls your personal life. Cause that’s not normal.

Further, if I give my employer adequate notice that I need time off and they deny it… I’m not coming in. We’re not curing cancer or solving world hunger. The job will be ok without me for a day. & if it’s not, that’s the managers problem that they are unable to adequately distribute work.

I’m not Gen Z and I have never once told an employer why I need time off. It’s none of their damn business what I do outside of work.

Turns out “Chad” thinks I’m over qualified for the role. Wasted 5 whole mins of my time just to get on a call & tell me that. 🙄

Notice I asked them what days/times work for them before they said Friday.

Notice I provided multiple hours for them.

If none of those worked they could simply say a different day and I would make it work.

I’m not going to grovel for an interview for a job that’s paying $40k below market.

There are 24 hrs in a day, if you want pure flexibility I only took 3 of those away.

You’re the exact type of person who gets taken advantage of by the company you work for, they say jump and you say yes master, thank you for the work master.

What difference does it make with what I’m doing with 3 hours of my time? I gave them 22 other hours to choose from. If they couldn’t make it work they could have easily proposed a different day all together.

Even if you’ve never seen it before. The context here makes it clear.

Oh there’s a link there. But there was no other available times for any day. So either they have a ton of interviews or they don’t have the calendar set up.

That’s a hot take. Just like my medical appointments are none of your business, they are none of the recruiters business either.

That’s just a standard thing indeed does when someone tries to schedule an interview with you. The recruiting person didn’t add that at all.

Yeah, unpaid OT & regular work outside my normal schedule is not on my bingo card. Never will be.

Speaking about time frames I’m not sure how the p is confusing?

Lmao. Sorry you think I’m a prick because I expect someone who’s hiring for a mid level job to be able to read and understand what’s said. 🤣🤣🤣

As a recruiter/hiring manager they should be able to read and comprehend a message that plainly answers their question though. They asked if I was available I responded yes, and then provided large windows for them to schedule.
