A lot of folks don't want to spend 12 hours a day working, especially doing busy work that doesn't get us anywhere. Sorry utilization has been low, we don't want to sit on our laptops at 6am.

When I was at Uncle D, I was once in a project led by a toxic SM, regularly verbally berated us. No one ever wanted to be first to leave, even when work was done/on track.

So, it was common for all of us to group chat each other while SM was nearby to all conspire to leave at the same time so we didn't get slammed by this SM who was well know to be toxic.

Mocked by his fellow SMs in the SL. During my time, every single one of his reports switched from him.

He's now PPMD. 🤗

How would you handle not getting a lunch break when you are a salaried employee treating patients for 40 hours a week? I don’t get documentation time either, but all notes are to be completed the same day. Some of us have reached out to HR and we’re told to discuss it with the regional director, but the regional director says we’d have to come in early or leave late to block out a lunch break. My commute is an hour each way, so I’d prefer not to make my day any longer. Advice?

Pretty new here! Great news ..JOB offer …however the company is lowballing salary ..I informed recruiter Amount was not acceptable …sent off the salary requirement letter …. Nail biting ..Why waste my time again …she didn’t know the budget… so we proceeded forward, her reply ..advised me to talk w hiring team but in final interview there was no opportunity to speak abt salary w hiring team ….Have to say I enjoy the posts & it’s a decent networking site!!

I need to let it out but I’m so fucking proud of myself and I just realized how lucky I got and it took me until just now to see it. I started in the military and it only took 2 months for me to get out and fall into a bottomless hole of depression. My transition went from: $13 an hour part time, separation with the wife, new job at $18 an hour for physical labor, hit with disability diagnosis, then $20 an hour new office job, reconnecting with wife, having 2nd kid, nearly divorcing (cont.)
