I feel really lost. I've been laid off for 8 months now and I've been in HR. I did not have an education in HR but training at the company I worked for was really bad. I'm not even sure if I want to go back to HR . I feel really lost. I've job hopped quite a bit and I don't feel like employers have a good impression of me..do you guys recommend taking courses? What if I have no idea what I want to do?

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?
