work

I came across this post this morning and I think this is pretty shameful for a company to do. The company I work for now does this as well and I think it’s pretty pathetic. To me it’s just disrespectful and shows how a company will turn on you in a second. I tell any of the guys that I work...

I have seen a few of these videos posted on this new generation of "Workers", and I will say that with sarcasm. This is what the new generation believes work is. We are seeing increasingly more workers thinking that this is the new way jobs are. The sad part is these folks are probably getting...

With the city mandating concrete work, we were required to fix some cracked sidewalk slabs. Even though i could have repaired it with patching it and still be nice and level, I had to get a licensed concrete guy to pour a two new slabs and some curb and gutter. the problem happened when he...

I don't know if this is fallout from getting people addicted to those high unemployment wages or what, but is anyone else seeing in their areas people not wanting to work anymore? As far as I know most of the high unemployment benefits are done now, but people are still refusing to go back to...

So about a year ago, CBD oil became a big hit. Apparently it has good medicinal properties. It comes in different MG doses and has different was of using it as well. But the THC (what gets you high) has been removed. Anyone else used it or would recommend it for sore muscles?

You know when I come into work, just give me 5 minutes to at least take my jacket off, or sit down for a few minutes to check my email or at least let me take one drink of my coffee. I think every job that I have ever worked at this happens. I am here 8 hours a day, give me my 5 minutes at the...

So I see multiple Redbox machines around town here. Does anyone use them? Do they just take your credit card and give you your movie?

I have an idea that everyone on this forum who is active is familiar with technology. This may be the reason why I come back because I like knowing I have a place to visit. I work in IT, but went to school for Computer Networking & Security. Some certs I would like to get would be A+ and...

Does anyone take probiotics? I think I have before a long time ago, but my Mom bought me some and wants me to start to take them. I know it's mostly 'good' bacteria that is suppose to help out. Almost like a septic system treatment in a way. Anyone else use them?

After the popular thread of bad things you have done at work lets do another. This one is all the good things that you have done at work. I'll start us off. I must say for the 13 years I worked in IT I feel pretty proud not only of my work but the way we treated people. @C Pav can account to...

Let's post thing bad things that we have done at our work. Please don't use the location or companies names. I'll start us off. One of my very first jobs one evening I thought it would be cool to miss pool chemicals together. Little did I know that ammonia and bleach don't go together. Let's...

Seems like everyone (after taking the month of December off) when they come back after the holidays, need things fixed yesterday.

Has anyone been on unemployment recently? Does ya have any tips?

Explain something to me, why does it seem like everyone is on vacation all the time? I have a few friends of mine that always seem like they are on vacation. There are two things that come into play here, the money and being able to get the time off to go. The money isn't that big of the...

This thread is for memories you recall with friends. Main reason is because soon a friend of near 13 years will be moving away. @nodle you will be missed so here it goes. Remember always going over to Greene Drug to get snacks and drinks? Sharing pretzels while working on computers. How about...

What is the appropriate length of a person's working career? At what point should a person retire? At what point should a person no longer expect to work as a full time laborer? I'm amazed at the amount of retirement eligible and appropriate aged people that continue to work in this area.

One of my favorite Seinfeld episodes, where George Costanza looks annoyed or frustrated while at his desk to make it look like he's extremely busy. Below the video are 10 tips from http://www.jumbojoke.com/george_costanzas_10_commandments_for_working_hard.html 1 - Never walk without a document...

Does anyone else do this? Or almost feel like they are forced to do this? I find myself slowing down purposely on work so that more doesn't pile up on me. I can work faster but if I do I will get even more work thrown on me. So I have to space it out to create an even balance. Basically the...
