I just got sent home from work because I was 3 minutes late.
>Leave home regular time >Immense traffic due to accident on the road >Send Manager text saying "There is a lot of traffic I'll be a few minutes late." >He responds, "Stay home." >I respond with LMAO emoji >Get to work >He wasn't kidding >WTF?! >MFW
Are you serious? I'm 3 minutes late because of unsuspected traffic due to an accident on the road. THREE FUCKING MINUTES. The worst part is how smug he was about this shit; like dude, I break my back everyday at work and you do this?! FUCK YOU.
This is now a general shitty boss/manager thread; tell us your woes.
Make a report to hr. Then apply to other jobs because your boss was in the right.

>Work a shitty paid job revolving around cooking chemicals at some dickhole American company >Department manager is a fucking pussy who takes dick from his bosses >Complain about formaldehyde fumes >I'm quarantined doing something in another part of the factory for a day >They fire me the next day by text because they would rather just remove me than fix a health risk >report them for unsafe work practices >former boss gets fired and company fined for £200,000
Feels good.
Evan Taylor
fucking awesome
Zachary Mitchell
It's a small company; the boss and the manager are butt-buddies so no go on that :/ Three minutes is well within the grace period of every company out there. Sure being late is no good, but it's not like I just showed up late; I let the dude know 20 minutes ahead of time that I'm going to be a few minutes late due to traffic.
Fuck that 5'6" knock knee dickhead ;(
Jayden Russell
GJ would have been even better if you got some compensation for that!
Andrew Gutierrez
Should've just clocked in and began working. What's the worst that could've came from that action? Nothing, if he made a big deal out of it, everyone would think he's retarded.
Adam Brown
It did nothing to my health, the exposure was only over a couple of days, but the ventilation system we used over the rollers and ovens was awful and we couldn't turn it up much or it would reduce the heat in the ovens and fuck up the process.
We worked with some nasty shit, Potassium Cyanide, Silver Nitrate, Diisocyantes, etc and I dont like to breathe that kind of crap.
The worst part was I had 2 co-workers who didn't give a shit about it, either they just didn't give a fuck about breathing in poison, needed the job too much or were just retarded.
Grayson Martinez
actually his boss had every right to send him home but here in Cali they owe you 2hrs of wages for wasting your time. Check your states laws.
Carson White
You must be extremely expendable. Minimum wage I'm guessing.
Carter Myers
That's what you get for using emojis, you cunt.
Carson White
Only problem is they told him not to come in before he got there. He showed up anyway.
Alexander Scott
You're right; unfortunately there's only 8 employees total, including the Boss man.
The manager met me at the door when I was trying to get in (someone has to open the entrance from the inside.) He was salty about the LMAO emoji; I told him I genuinely thought he was being sarcastic, he wasn't.
He's a pussy that loves to tell tall tales about his past and hates when anyone questions his judgement; arguing with him or defying him would only escalate the situation further and get his Boss man butt buddie involved.
Chase Cook
Damn bro that job sounds like shit. I'm glad you're done with that! Did you ever find anything better?
Isaiah Gonzalez
Nope, that's not how it works, I believe employers have to call you off several hours (possibly 24 hours) once you have been scheduled. I had an employer try this shit a few minutes before I left...I said sweet made my two hours, and I got paid for them too.
Justin Powell
How many times have you been late in the past?
Jordan Green
Only 3
Jace Gray
I'm not saying he doesn't have the right to send me home, I'm just saying doing that is wayyy over the top given the situation at hand.
Nope, I'm the IT/Technician who is in charge of testing, configuring and fixing damn near all the shit they sell. On top of that, if anything computer related ever goes wrong, I'm the one to fix it. I get paid healthy. I'm replaceable, sure, but definitely not expendable like a warehouse worker.
True; but I literally laughed when I got the text, I though that shit was pretty witty and funny.
Nolan Nelson
McJobs treat you like a gear in a machine. if it squeaks or wobbles, replace it.
go get a better job
Ryder King
Then you work in IT like me, and can have a new job tomorrow. Recruiters are like spam callers to me now.
If you're educated you do not need to be treated that way. I got fired for being late. picked up a new job 30 days later that payed $20,000 more than what I was already making.
Jackson Nguyen
Lol, pretty close.
One time, I told the dude I'll be 30 minutes late and hour before work started. I was exactly 29 minutes late and he was still salty; like dude, shit comes up sometimes ok?! I do what I can, and I sure as hell make sure you're informed %100 of the way through. Yesterday we (4 guys) all went out to get Subway and because of traffic and lines we all simultaneously showed up 11 minutes late from our 30 minute lunch. We didn't take any break afterwards to compensate for the time lost.
Thomas Evans
Fucking power tripping asshole. Unless you had a history of chronic lateness (over 5 mins late several times a month) then the decent and professional thing would be to let it slide. Especially since you're working a job where you being a few minutes late has literally zero impact on their operation. I've worked places where production starts at 9 you need to be in position at 9 and if you're even one minute late it fucks everyone else over. In that case it's your coworkers who'll take it out on you by being inflexible in regards to shift swaps and vacation requests and such. It seems like your manager is a fucking asshole and you should probably jerk off in his lunch.

Isaiah Turner
Looking at other jobs right now. Their company went bankrupt before and lost all it's employees. I got hired as they're trying to rebuild their infrastructure from scratch. Treating employees like this is not a good way to build a strong team that actually wants to accomplish goals and advance; it makes people want to come in, do the least possible and collect a check.
Yep, I'm about to send out a resume to a couple other jobs right now. Unfortunately I don't have any official technical/computer education so that's my only set-back; Also I'm only 21 so some people might get the impression I'm experienced, but believe me, I know my shit.
What kind of job do you have now? Like what field of IT do you work in?
David Green
I show up to work like 40 minutes late a few times a week. Glad my work doesn't seem to mind too much. I usually make the time up at the end of the day anyway, that is when things usually get busy.
Cameron Powell
That blows, You live in orlando?

Mason Taylor
I'm a cook at hometown buffet and the AM here is a fucking she devil. Hates everyone who isn't Mexican, treats everyone like shit, cuts hours if piss her off at all, another cook's kid was being born and she wouldn't let him go to the hospital to see the birth, she cut my hours because I wouldn't come in on a day off cuz I was out of town visiting family....cut me down to two half days...oh and she always has a pissed off look on her face. Lawsuits have been filed but nothing has happened. What's worse is the GM let's this all happen cuz he's a spinless bitch. So yeah not the worst story but it's what I got
Brayden Parker
My thoughts exactly my man. I wouldn't be so salty if I showed up like 15 minutes late today; because then I could maybe understand his actions. But 3 fucking minute?! 3?! Fuck him.
And on top of that, just like you mentioned, my position is completely independent from everyone else so I'm not jeopardizing anything but my own work by coming in late.
Blake Ramirez
Sent them 25 pizza's from 12 different restaurants.
Jacob Jones
Honestly OP it sounds like you're one of those people that are just more trouble than they are worth. This isn't about simply being three minutes late, this is about having a history of frustrating them. If you truly don't know what the problem is then it's probably your personality that grinds on someone. Welcome to IRL.
Evan Watson
Nope, Ct
Alexander Gonzalez
As a boss, someone being late more than once is a sign of a problem. You know what time you are supposed to be at work, and you are expected to be there. A bad accident on the road is a good excuse if you don't already have a problem, but when it's your 4th excuse, I'm sending you home. You can't let one guy do it and not let the others. I start at 6am and arrive no later than 5:30. If there is an accident or something unexpected, I still make it on time. I've been here six years and I've never been late. Calling an hour before hand to tell them you'll be late is also not OK. You seem like every employee that I have that is a problem... Clueless, uncaring, obnoxious, and deserving.
Brody Allen
you need to read the rest of my post - very likely your employer owes you wages - there is most likely a minimum pay for scheduled employees
Cooper Morgan
Congratulations on being a fucking wage slave cuck. You're an inspiration to us all you fucking faggot.
Adam Watson
This times a billion. We had a girl miss the weeks with no excuse once... this was in addition to some other issues. She begged to come back and her manager let her. A few days later she misses again and claims it was for her grandma's funeral AFTER the fact... no call or anything. They shit can her. She tells everyone she was fired for going to her grandma's funeral. People like OP are incredibly clueless and full of excuses as to why nothing is their fault.

Jack Martin
I can see that. Me and this dude don't mesh too well. But I get along great with everyone else and I sure as hell work hard and get more then required done. He just hates to have his judgement questioned; this dude has the Napoleon Complex. There is a few times when he's told me to do XYZ and I did it my own way to achieve the same thing except it accommodate my workflow better. He would come over and make me change things around just so it was the way he wanted.
Jeremiah Torres
Oh no. Insulted for making decent money and being a responsible person. That hurts coming from a worthless deadbeat like you. Your insults are a meaningful your life spent insulting people from a computer and explaining how cool you are for not being another brick in the wall. Fag.
Jonathan Anderson
Once I held my lunchbreak for 30 min and 15 sec instead of 30 min straight. Had huge stomachpains that day, so couldnt really help it. Got a warning and was sent to a meeting about how being at work on time is important that took like 20 mins..
Sebastian Phillips
>grace period What are you, like 16? There's no such thing as a grace period with being on time to work.
Camden Hernandez
And thats his fault how?
Nepotism is for scumbags.
John Jones
How does it feel to live for the express purpose of being a spineless corporate stooge?
Andrew Bailey
Again. I have a few of you here. You're paid to do it the way you are asked. I have a maintenance guy like you and it is infuriating. He always knows better. Always does it his way. It never works out because he doesn't understand the bigger picture. Just show up on time and do what you're told. If it doesn't work, then it is my fault. Work can be extremely simple if you just do what you're told. Guys like you are awful to have. I'm just being 100 percent honest with you so you can hopefully make a change.
Oliver Jones
You should still be able to get some money for unfair dismissal.
Evan Baker
If the company isn't paying me for that two extra hours I have to get up every morning to make it in just in case an accident makes me late, they don't get that extra time. It's really as simple as that.
Camden Myers
>nepotism
Everyone that works there is related to me
Lucas Torres
Yes and no, I'm just drifting from job to job at the moment, they're all low wage part time crappy things, but im young and I would prefer to save money and figure out what I want to do that grind my face on a career path that I hate.
Julian Lewis
Pretty much fine. Good actually. Rewarding. Better than raging against a machine that doesn't even know that I exist.
Luis Baker
I don't really care, its not worth the hassle.
Ian Stewart
>e far from it, 20 km, almost 2 hours in the bus By bus you mean horse carriage?
Nathaniel Butler
I totally get your point; and you're right, but this was my 2nd time being late, ever. And 3 fucking minutes, remember that. lol.
From this point forth I'm going to get to whatever job I have to be at 15 minutes early; it's the responsible thing to do for-sure, aiming to be exactly on time is never a good idea.
Gabriel Mitchell
Being 3 minutes late because of traffic in which he let his boss know beforehand is completely different from missing entire days without letting anybody know
Isaiah Reyes
That's fine, but again, if you make a habit of being late, you can't cry when it finally becomes an issue. I have 24 good workers and 4 that are a pain in the ass. They're the first to go when I have to cut people. That's just the real world.
Adam Kelly
How the fuck is you being a micro-managing little cunt helping anyone get anything done? All that shit accomplishes is ostracizing your employees and lowering worker morale until you have a bunch of soulless flesh sacs lazing around all day, waiting to collect their pay cheques.
Christian James
Bosses gonna boss. There's a reason why certain people are in charge, it's not just dumb luck or "I've been here longer than him". It's very common for them to be dicks actually, they aren't there to make friends, they're expected to keep the cattle moving. A douchebag manager is a business owner's wet dream, they get shit done and just don't give a fuck about interpersonal bs. Micromanaging assholes suck to work for but I can assure you that you're Napoleon wasn't hired accidentally, that jerk was at the top of the list because he's a jerk.
Angel Hernandez
>I get paid healthy >Small business Lol, what's your salary and what area?
Nicholas Peterson
Fair enough. Keep on keeping on I suppose.
Luis Long
Reminder that the heat death of the universe is impending and you're working for peanuts
Colton Jones
No doubt. I'm just saying the personality type. She was the worst example I know of... just the idea that she actually thinks she got fired for gmas funeral like op thinks he was sent home over 3 minutes. It's more than that.
Owen Gomez
>20 km, almost 2 hours in the bus Jesus christ where do you live
Samuel Wood
It's not 3 minutes, that's the problem. People that think they need to be in the door by 8am are just worthless employees. You need to be in, have already gotten your coffee, booted up your computer, taken a piss, talked about last night's sporting event, etc, and be ready to work at 8. So 3 minutes is really about 33 minutes and keeps other people from doing shit while you distract them too.
Jonathan Cruz

It isn't always micro managing. I don't do that. Often times though there is a way we want something done because of future plans that the employee isn't aware of... he does it his way instead, and now the future plan is fucked up.
Alexander Foster
Oh shit, this is my thread now. >Missing 500 dollars on my salary. >Tell boss, give her all she needs to see there has been a mistake. >Even calculate the god damn pay I should have for her. > "Ok user, I will look into it."

I am missing 300 dollars from my pay.." >"I'll look into it user." >"So you mean it is going to take 1000 years?" >"user, don't have that fucking attitude with me..."
>mfw
Also, I suck at green texts, sorry, but you get the idea... Right?
Adam Cox
>Are you serious? I'm 3 minutes late because of unsuspected traffic due to an accident on the road. THREE FUCKING MINUTES
If you had been a good employee, you would make an effort every day to arrive at work at least 15 minutes early, so that you wouldn't be negatively impcated by traffic, Also anyone that cares about arriving on time will use google maps to find alternate routes and still arrive on time.
>The worst part is how smug he was about this shit;
I'm betting this is a habitual thing from you, ergo the boss getting annoyed by it constantly and fed up with you. Not that you would be honest about that.
>like dude, I break my back everyday at work and you do this?! FUCK YOU.
No one that is critical to a business will ever be sent home for being three minutes late. so I'm betting you're lying about this part as well. I've had your type as employees in the past, think their shit don't stink but barely break even on doing work/making work. Unfortunately with your attitude you'll never come to the realization that you're the problem.
Thomas Kelly
>Sysadmin >60k

I believe you were at least supposed to receive workers comp, since they fired you, especially since it wasn't for a valid reason.

Asher Foster
(I forgot about this until now) They gave me an extra 2 weeks pay.
Samuel Richardson
As long as there weren't too many steep hills you could probably cycle to work quicker if you're fit.
Grayson Mitchell
You should leave early enough OP that something like traffic shouldn't effect your time to clock in at work. I leave 45mins early everyday for work and I only live 15mins away.
Nicholas Richardson
At my job if your late 3 times in 180 days you get fired.
As a manages... 3 minutes pisses me off more than an hour.
3 minutes tells me that you have poor time management.
an hour show there was a real predicted event.
Traffic that causes you to be 3 minutes late is avoidable.
Robert Peterson
I'd say it's good to avoid being nepotistic but if everyone there is family, he could show a little leniency. But you said you'd been late before. Maybe your dads just a dick?
Daniel Sanchez
Maybe he does know better because he's an actual technician but you're the hardheaded dickhead boss that just won't listen to anyone's suggestions because you're the only one wise enough to see the "big picture"?
Exactly.
I understand that completely; I'm not a pussy and I can the criticism and make a positive change if I ever fuck up; but this situation here is over the top for no visible reason apart from that dudes personal feeling about the situation, so fuck him.
$15/hr for being 21 and un-certified in anyway; not amazing but healthy for my current lifestyle.

This. Can confirm. My work is about 10k from my place give our take a kilometer. I can bike there (it's downhill there) in under 20 minutes. How the fuck can bussing 20k take 2 hours.
Isaiah Ward
That's not the way it works in any business. Letting you know the plan implies that they give a shit what you think - and they don't. They have a plan to paint some masterpiece and you were hired to deliver the paints. Stop interrupting the artist, you're the delivery boy. If you want to be an artist go right ahead, but do it somewhere else. Not specifically you user, but that's the mentality - and you know what? It works.
Noah Reyes
This too. I always make a habit of being 45 mins to an hour early everyday. Then I just chill, smoke a joint outside, get a coffee and eat. I've never been late once and I've worked at this place for 3 years.
Anthony Perez

Jordan Davis
If you wanna look at it that way, sure. But I'd be doing the same thing if I was at home. May as well do it at work. Besides I'd say 75% of the time I start early anyways.
Levi Russell
>You would make an effort every day to arrive at work at least 15 minutes early Like I said before, from this point forth I'm aiming to arrive at-least 15 minutes early to any job I ever have, so I'm taking something positive out of this shit situation.
>I'm betting this is a habitual thing from you, ergo the boss getting annoyed by it constantly and fed up with you. Not that you would be honest about that. Maybe, but if he's a dickhead I'm not the type of person to just bend over and take it; I know this characteristic is a very double edged sword.
>No one that is critical to a business will ever be sent home for being three minutes late Right?! You'd think that? I do too, but I'm the guy everything, I mean everything goes through to be tested before it goes on sale ... There have been multiple times I didn't take a lunch break just so I could get more done. So I do actually work hard and hold an important position. Maybe there's something manager man knows that I don't, but fuck that guy regardless.
Ian Adams
Fucking shitbag quislings bragging about giving some rich faggot free time, implying we should give time for free too

Bukowski knew what was up
"How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 6:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so?"

Fresh off the boat, from reddit, kid? heh I remember when I was just like you. Braindead. Lemme give you a tip so you can make it in this cyber sanctuary: never make jokes like that. You got no reputation here, you got no name, you got jackshit here. It's survival of the fittest and you ain't gonna survive long on Cred Forums by saying stupid jokes that your little hugbox cuntsucking reddit friends would upboat. None of that here. You don't upboat. You don't downboat. This ain't reddit, kid. This is Cred Forums. We have REAL intellectual discussion, something I don't think you're all that familiar with. You don't like it, you can hit the bricks on over to imgur, you daily show watching son of a bitch. I hope you don't tho. I hope you stay here and learn our ways. Things are different here, unlike any other place that the light of internet pop culture reaches. You can be anything here. Me ? heh, I'm a judge.. this place.... this place has a lot to offer... heh you'll see, kid . . . that is if you can handle it.

Oh yeah, I had a job where they cracked down on tardiness. I was three minutes late and got bitched at too. Fuck that place. Glad I'm not there anymore.
Although, after leaving there, I endes up at a place that had the "if you're on time you're late" mentality, which is one of the stupidest things I've ever experienced. Left that place in short order.
Fuck these Time Nazis.

I'm the fucking leader of anonymous, you twat. And now you've thoroughly pissed me off. I wasn't even that close to edge, and yet your miserable dribble has actually managed to push me off. You hear that? To the end of the line. THE BREAKING POINT. Normally I dismiss this kind of shit without a second thought, but you've crossed a certain boundary you fucking faggot. And you should have known better, you should have realized what could happen if you took your joke a little too far. But you failed, and now will await the repercussions. Fuck I haven't even gotten my hacking laptop out in years, I think that shit is still running some pirated version of XP. But it's time to brush the dust off and set an example, because clearly faggots like you are too young to know what can really happen when you mess with the likes of our group. I hope you're ready for what's in store, because mommy won't be able to save you this time. Best you pack your bags and flee now, flee to whatever remote shit hole you can hide to. And you better pray we won't find you. But we will, and when that day comes you will rue the day you made what was seemingly a harmless comment on an anonymous message board. The clock's ticking, pal. Tick tock. Your time is about to run out

Oh man, it would take hours to cover 10% of the crazy shit I saw there >Chinese business dev director, can only say three words "I speak english" >Rampant corruption, litterally everywhere >the chinese government selling fake invoices to lower taxes (unbeatable price: 6RMB for 15k€ worth of fake invoices) >got paid 10 iPhones for showing up in a convention pretending to be the business director of a fortune 500 company to announce an investment plan. shit was funny, I spoke right after the ambassador of south korea, nobody asked questions even though I was 24 at the time
All in all I'm glad it ended because 90% of working in CHina is about avoiding politics and other unqualified businessmen
Josiah Green
If you told them 30~ min in advance that "Hey, unexpected shit. I'll be 5 min late, sorry." He's retarded. If you're rarely late and work hard, there's 0 reason to react like that.
Late often with similar reasons? Don't work hard? Always being a smartass? Fine, he's probably right. But how you've framed it he comes off as a prick and a garbage boss.
My current place of work has a simple rule. If you're late, tell us. If you're late, you're staying extra after your shift was supposed to end to make it up. If it happens too often, you're written up. We've had 2 people written up for being late cunts in the past year. Both eventually quite because they were lazy bitches.
Jeremiah Martinez
He donates 30 minutes of his personal time per day to a company that does not give one shit. At best, he's seen as a doormat by his own boss.

I have to admit the Chinese are ballsy. I worked for a businessman that had several businesses serving each other, through multiple conflicts of interest. Some of the companies were only identified by registry numbers and they were in his childrens' names, who were all minors.

>My fucking CHIEF shows up, asks me why I'm late, if traffic was bad >Explain doctor appointment and traffic

They never recognize the other thousands of days you are fucking early to work, but god forbid you're 1-2 minutes past the clock they will jump down your throat.
John Fisher
Yeah sky's the limit for them. But out of all those sketchy stories, I still got to work and live with genuinely talented and good people from mainland China, and that taught me a lot.
But once they'll decide they want us out, man...
Thomas Roberts

Noah Evans
Yeah, I used to work in a restaurant that got bought out by a Chinese family. They tried to make us participate in their culture and explain to us that standing up for ourselves was disrespectful to your superiors. I laughed in his face and told him "Welcome to America. Where everyone thinks they matter and if you don't pay me, you'll get a call from my lawyer."
Landon Moore

All of you faggots who are saying "oh well only worthless niggers are late hurr hurr", you fuckers need to understand that YOU are worthless. Your boss does not care if you arrive early. Your achievement of arriving before you're supposed to is not something that will be recognized, ever.
What is the difference to a boss between someone who arrives one minute early to their shift and someone who arrives an hour early?
NOTHING
Brayden Wood
He's probably been just waiting for any opportunity. Either you did something to piss him off or he simply wants your spot for a friend, family member or other nepotistic placeholder.
I haven't had this happen but my girlfriend did. She was working for a manufacturing company in their returns department and even though she got to work and clocked in at the same time as her carpool she got fired and her carpool didn't because the philipino fuck who got transfered into her section as the new manager just wanted to hire all his philipino friends. Her carpool still works there and now the whole department is philipino.
Brody Martin
Fuck all these protestant fucktards, who find "self-actualization" and "redemption" in "working hard" and earning "well deserved profits". Fuck them in front of their families, fuck them in their nostrils with big veiny black dicks. Committing yourself to work in hopes of a better tomorrow is just another way of escapism, since we will all be dead in the long-run. The biggest and only difference between this and other kinds of escapist behaviors is that the overwhelming majority of the society condones this kind. Your boss gets mad at you op, because he/she thinks that it you steal from his/her well-earned money by showing up late, or you are disrespecting the holy practice of worshiping the work itself. Subconsciously, he/she associates you with the anti-thesis of protestant ethics, the folk who are doomed to perish in hell, for an eternity. He/she can't stand you because of how much you remind him/her the death and other undesirable but as real as it can get aspects of the existence. He/she also fears that by condoning your "irresponsible behavior", he/she will be an oath-breaker in the eyes of god. And finally, he/she cannot condone you, because doing that, would be accepting the very idea that there are random events in the universe that can fuck things up, that are justifiable but still happen, just like the unexpected traffic you ran into that day. The idea of randomness and uncontrollable events haunts him/her.
Joseph Gutierrez
Jobs are so arbitrary. All you do is bitch about a job that you don't like. Have you ever considered quitting and finding something that you think is rad? Seriously, consider this...
You bitch about your job, that you're habitually late for. That you're unsatisfied with because despite the imperfections of your tenure, you got shit done. A job that you know you should be paid more to do but that won't happen because it's "not in the budget."
Well, quit that shit, do something you love to do. Find a way to make your hobby your dream job, idiots.
Colton Nguyen
I remember one time, working with a Chinese project manager. he made a small mistake and had to reorganize the workload. He told his team that he fucked up, and all those guys under his supervision just wouldn't say it. like they kept saying "no, you didn't, there's no mistake" while he was trying to tell them that yes, he did.
Imagine me trying to keep a straight face
Logan James
here in canada when you are scheduled for a shift as long as you show up to that shift no longer then 10 mins late they owe you 4 hours of wage period....dont even matter if you work a minute or not..... if they have you scheduled and send you home they owe you 4 hours period

You're dumb. Yeah, we're all gonna die someday, but every other day we won't.

By this standard I have the dream job sometimes if I'm tired I come in 2 hours late no one bats an eye. Sometimes when I take my sleep ins people can call when we usually start (7 am) need me to fix some problems I wake up by their call and get up and drive to work.
Sometimes if I meet one of the bosses can ask casually if I was tired I just say 'yeah woke up late' and continue my day.
I work at a international company 40 000+ employees .

Isaiah Martinez
Had the same thing happen at the bank I used to work at, only my boss waited until I got my station all set up and called the first customer up, he then proceeded to tell the full lobby that I was leaving and couldn't help. I told him that he could fuck himself, and helped. He tried to tell me I wasn't being paid, but that's illegal and so is docking time for being late if it's less then an hour, here in California.
Jace Wood
No, there usually is.

I got a job on an IT helpdesk once. They threw me on without any training whatsoever. The other people on the phones were too busy to teach me anything. I had fuck all idea what I was doing as they (the clients) used bespoke systems. I simply did not show up after two weeks as it was complete shit and all I got was upset clients complaining about me not knowing shit. I'd actually moved from another company doing similar work for 3 years because the pay was better. But fuck that. If they can't be bothered to at least get you up to speed then they don't deserve anyone.

I am not advocating jerking around for a life time. What I'm having a hard-time to wrap my mind around is over-complication of things. If you are into something, fine. Go and work on it and enjoy it while it lasts. But don't get your anger over me when I am not as enthusiastic as you are.
>Is it really such a mystery/conspiracy to you that people can take pride in their work? I don't know what to tell you, user. Accomplishing things makes you feel good. Try it sometime.
Yes it is a mystery. And I did accomplish things in my life that made me feel good. As I mentioned, I do not advocate for doing nothing. Thank you for your recommendation.
Xavier Nguyen
You are part of the problem. "Do what you love and you'll never work a day in your life" sounds good on paper, but it doesn't work out that way, nor should it.
A hobby that you truly love and enjoy is something special, why would I want to turn my beloved and relaxing activity into work? I'd have to make sure I do whatever it is at a steady pace so the money doesn't stop, no more enjoying my hobby at my leisure. Other people would have to be involved, many of whom would most likely tell me how to do my hobby the right way.
You know why most people hate their jobs? It's not because they're not doing something they enjoy. You don't have to enjoy your work to be satisfied with it.
It's because they feel like nobody gives a shit about them, and most companies don't.

Enjoy watching our boss fuck your wife in front of you on the kitchen table.

Same happened to me. Last job. Be 1.5 minutes late because my faggot co worker doesnt know how to get out of bed or pay gas money. Bonus if i leave him then i have to do his shitty job. Boss tells us to go home.
Suck the fat end of my dick. Litterally under 5 minutes late in 2 years. Tell them i want a 2 dollar raise or im never comming back. Get raise. Work 4 days. Quit without notice. Dont even feel bad. The owner was a cunt and i only halfway liked the one coworker that owed me over 3 grand at 5 bucks a day. They can all eat. 100% happy working by myself. Fuck co workers and bosses over your shoulder.

Im lucky though. I put enough hours in each day on a salary that if I need to do shit or come in late for an appointment or something I notify them and just do it, and no one says a fucking word.
Andrew Barnes
You know what, actually this whole thread makes sense now. Youre a self entitled millennial who thinks he's worth something when truly, your a grunt making $15 an hour. He could replace you instantly. You are truly bottom of the barrel. You're getting paid less than average for a technician already. And I'm basing that number off of a poverty tier (Cleveland) average. Where ever you live should be way more than that.
Self entitled millennial who thinks he means something to the boss. He doesn't give two shits about you or the work you do. You are utter trash.

William Miller
You don't see through anything. Again, "turn your hobby into your dream job!" is something children say.
How old are you? I'd guess around 25. That's really great that you've managed to turn your hobby into your dream job, you sound enthusiastic about it. What happens when you get sick of it in 10 years? What if you get sick of it in less time than that? What happens when then hobby you loved becomes a soulless and monotonous addition to your daily routine? You don't think it will happen, but it's inevitable.
You don't have to cuck yourself to a company to have a good job. Nor should you try and make your hobby your living.
A good job is one with people in higher positions that genuinely care about people in lower positions. If you are at a company that isn't like this, as most people are, just keep in mind that they don't care.
Asher Allen
This seems like the appropriate thread for this question. >how do you get a dickhead lead worker fired?
Probably a farfetched question since i guess hes good at his job, but its unacceptable to be going around deliberately trying to get individuals fired for mundane and petty shit.
Backstory? Real quick. My department was slow so i was sent to help him out. This happens often, sometimes i help him without being asked. I go to the restroom and see him. He instantly cops an attitude and asks me if im going back. I say of course, but tell him I'm going home early (already told my lead) so he'll know to pick up another worker if he needs it. We go back and theres my head boss. First thing that comes out of the dickheads mouth? >did you know hes leaving at 730? And in the same breath he snitched out this other guy whod been working in his department for like 5 hours straight about taking a break without telling anyone when there was literally no one to tell.
This is just one incident. He almost literally rats someone new out each week. And he never approaches the person straight up before hand for a warning. Like he couldve asked me if i told my boss i was leaving early. Or let somebody know when you go on your break next time.
I try not to take shit personal especially in the job, they pay us to deal with people not to like them. But trying to ge me fired is personal.

Even if he is experimenting with something and it turns out to be wrong, that's is a lesson he payed hard earned money to learn. Creativity is appreciated but only where it is needed. He may not have been good to you, but you were not to him either you ass.

At my job. If you let us know before hand were cool. You have 3 minutes to show up after your scheduled shift time if you dont let us know ahead of time.

And I mean no disrespect by this. I used to have a shitty job for a company. But one day, I realized 12/hour to run a kitchen full of what seemed like children was not enough. So, I left. In the middle of my shift. Never looked back. Also, you can make money playing videogames. If you're part of PC Master Race, you can max out characters on MMORPG's and sell the accounts. Tons of newfags still pay for that shit. It's a total scam but you win in the end.

This isn't 3,000 years ago where you got paid in food cloth & salt, putting in a hard days labour meant a good safe life, this is a world where shitting on the bottom rungs has become a science, where nepotism is hidden in a world that despises it, and unless you're at the top, theres always someone beneath trying to take a dump on you.
Joseph Morales
I was the best employee at THAT place. I normally don't have that mentality but you would think people who've been the food business for 20+ years would have common sense about things.
Kayden Ramirez
Well, you need money to live, even if you're a NEET. If you can spend your day going out with your friends, that probably means your friends have no job either, and are also depending on the hard work of their parents to go on.

Working =/= over-inflating the concept of basically selling/renting your labor to someone else with terms like dignity, self respect etc
An honest work is not necessarily a work where you bust your ass, keep thinking about how not to fuck up way too hard even in your spare non-working hours.
You can pay your rent, get on a bus while having a decent paying job that does not demand your very existence committed to itself.
Are you working to live or living to work?
If the only enjoyment you get from life are blocked behind social status and money, I am afraid you are a wage slave.
Jonathan Perez
unions suck shit. if you need bodies hire the union if you want quality hire anyone except union, fuck your union and all the faggots in it

You have no idea what my union is. We clean up and repair all of the fuck-ups that unskilled non-union workers create.

True story here. Last job - bunch of cucks. Employees treared like shit. Lazy, fucking tarded and didnt care. Bust my ass 2 years. Wall in one day and all fucks gone. Become lazy cuck and almost get fired. 0 fucks given. They think i want fired and unemployment so give me shitty jobs. I just laugh. Honestley 0 fucks to give. Litterally just bust ass 10 minutes on any project and fuckoff the rest of the day. Had a spot mittor set up to see the boss comming and would sit in the parts shed until someone comes and act like im looking for shit i knew we didnt have. Dont feel the least bad about it. This job treats me pretty well, pays pretty well, and in return ill work a little off the clock or weekends some just to clean on my equipment and make sure things are good. They fucking love me and dmi do dick all but act proffessional in front of customers and take care of shit.
Lincoln Butler
The only enjoyment I get from life is watching star trek on Netflix even though I've seen them all in order several times and playing video games that are boring now. They're blocked behind money. Does that mean I'm a wage slave?
Ian Powell
contact HR, or whoever is the equivalent. Make it known that he's hostile towards other employees and that if it doesn't stop you're going to corporate on this situation. Put fire under their ass to snuff his fire out.

Thomas Williams
Nah. One of them tries to hook up every time she's in between boyfriends. I'm usually a sex fiend and would gladly fuck the shit outa either of them but I'm trying to keep it professional and work on my self control. One has been around a year the other a year and half. It's really hard not to fuck em tbh because they sleep over sometimes. They always rubbing on me and being all sweet and shit. I'm 31 and they're 20 and 23. When you put a dick in a young one it always complicates the friendship..so doing my best not to fuck em
Charles Taylor
the only good union is no union, worthless unskilled fodder for the labor market
Oliver Sanchez
Don't listen to that guy, literally everything in the modern world is blocked behind money. #1 cause of stress in the world is financial difficulty. Why? because fucking everything costs money.
You are a wage slave though, and it seems like you don't understand how to enjoy things that aren't made as entertainment
Brayden Thompson
that guy is cute af
Ryan Thompson
This 100%. Cocksuckers gonna suck that dick anons... fuck a boss that has 0 repect for his workforce. They all deserve to be cucked. I know its a 2 way street but im a generally respectful person. Dont come bitching at me because your a 50's something ttyhard with no social life or ambishins...
Josiah Harris
I did that once. You won't get a write-up. They'll say they're recounting the days you took off. Then a week later you'll get pulled into HR and fired. You qualify for unemployment though, because if you're fired because of a progressive point system, they have to give you a warning before they can fire you. Enjoy your free money for 6 months. I did.

Owen Phillips
Get a better job. Sounds like you're in food services or retail. Also, leave earlier. Accommodate for potential traffic by allowing yourself to arrive 10-15 mins before your scheduled time, (this is called initiative).
Colton Clark
Why didn't you get a note from the cop to say why you were late? They literally do that specifically for that reason.
Jonathan Hernandez
>The only enjoyment I get from life is watching star trek on Netflix even though I've seen them all in order several times and playing video games that are boring now. They're blocked behind money. Does that mean I'm a wage slave?
Yes
Thomas Nguyen
doesn't pay to do people favors, but it helps to think it makes you a better person.
Cooper Fisher
NO EXCUSES, YOU LAZY SHIT. You need to show up an hour early every day or you deserve to be fired.
Tyler Perry
You'll look back on this situation years later and you'll wish you would have fucked one or both. That said, I respect that you're trying to better your self control. Props on that at least.
Robert Kelly
Sad thing is, op; if you didn't announce your tardiness it probably would have gone unnoticed. Sorry you work for a huge sack of faggots

I probably could have but I had already pushed my luck with them. It was a charity organization that picks up stuff from stores, etc... If we leave late we miss dock times and I did that to them too many times.

You faggots that hate unions are braindead.

it could have turned out worse for me but that's a good example of how management treats everyone
Jackson Lopez
was it the first time or a repeated offence? were you warned before?
John Peterson
I fucked a few of their friends and dated one for 6 months. One got really upset about it. Told her I love her like a sister and would stop banging her friend. She felt guilty and tried to play it off..I quit banging her friend. I could tell it bothered her. She went back to her old sweet self when I stopped fucking her friend. They don't bring friends around anymore lol

Honestly, I believe that the idea of "job" (not "profession", that is entirely a different concept) is created to keep uncreative, low IQ normies (who seek happiness all the time, but nevertheless fall into the trap of marginal utility) from raping, pillaging and murdering the self-motivated, creative self-sufficient people (who are not happy but content and satisfied) possibly out of jealousy and also boredom.
Austin Edwards
You're probably better off anyway. Obviously they weren't paying you enough to own a car.

For real. >All other plebs there make 8, even the niggers that have been here for 10 years. >Waitresses are all shit talking, fat (like ball on two toothpick legs fat), ugly, and cause drama. >Kitchen faggots are all lazy, try telling you how to do your job while failing at their own. >One day waitress tries talking shit to my best friend that also works there >Get in that hoes face and tell her to fuck off >Clock out, tell the boss in text, acts chill. >Next day I walk in >"You need to be nicer to Jean, she needs help carrying the food out." >Says he's losing money now because me and bro won't help, he had to hire someone to help her. >Jean is a 400 pound landwhale with crumbling knees that cannot do the job without dragging someone away from their post. >Whynotjustreplaceher.mpeg >Ends with boss saying I need to be nicer to her and be more friendly and talkative. >Go home that night >Me and bro never go back to that place again
Not the worst, but it was ridiculous. It's a fucking pizzeria, but everyone wanted to act like it was Jersey Shore.
Jayden Nelson
My work has kind of taken a zero tolerance policy on tardiness also. Otherwise people tend to push it. 2 minutes becomes 5 becomes 15 minutes. Shit happens sometimes but they don't see it like that here. I've been told to go home a couple times. Then they wrote me up for it to document it.
Jaxson Lewis
>I break my back everyday at work
Just why ?
Julian Sanders
Im just jealous I'm not in one so I'm a hater.
Leo Brooks
You keep using that 'R' word, and at this point I'm certain you have no idea what it really means.
Luis Roberts
It's an idiom, idiot.
Noah Richardson
No, wrong. Job is the term we apply to menial tasks that must be performed by someone to uphold modern day levels of convenience.
People assume that only retards take these jobs because for some reason the actual retards of the world started to believe they were too good to do any labor.
Gavin Taylor

I wish I had a union job. If you're jealous in means you understand the value of having a union.

Austin Myers

Ethan Bell
I love how places bitch about you being five minutes late, but don't complain about the free overtime you give them when staying late to complete a task.
Evan Rivera
This. Why does everyone like to assume their local minimum wage workers gave up on life and resigned themselves to "wage slavery"?? That fag in the McD's tshirt might be going to school on the side, you'd never know unless you asked.
Zachary Thompson
But I'm a wage slave and I live there now because my mother can't afford the house on her own.
Mason Barnes
Sure I do. As a worker it would be nice to be able to not have an employer arbitrarily fuck you around.
Nathaniel Ramirez
You are correct.
Probably the biggest motivation behind the invention of "making other people do your shit" is the insatiable greed and psychopathy of the bourgeoisie retards, if I got you correct?
Hudson Clark
Wow people really hate bosses for no reason.
Ya I would say that you are going above and beyond, and being so hard line will generate more frustration than inspiration or productivity.
For some things it makes a lot of sense to really be harsh though, especially with new workers who need to know the expectation.
I have never been late to work, it's not hard.
Aiden Watson
That's funny you say that. I had the same scenario. I pointed it out to my boss. About how I'd stay 10-15 minutes late lots of days until my relief got to their posts etc. he'd rather have me out that in my timesheet than extend me the courtesy when I'm 2-3 minutes late.
Cooper Long
Circumstances, my friend. You have family obligations, you're helping your own mother, otherwise you would find another living situation.
I meant the fatfucks collecting NEETbux and mooching off their mothers. "Maaa! More hotpockets!" You know?

Right? Fuck all these shitty jobs trying to squeeze their employees out of a fair deal.

Noah Parker
i understand that moron, just asking why he's hard working.
Jaxon Bennett
Well good for you. Ignore these lazy fucks. If I show up late and my boss is a dick about it, sure I'll get hurt in my pride and feels, but I'll be smart enough to realize I need to get here on time next time. If not to please your boss, then at least to get him out of your face.
