I spend too much time doing a job I don't like and pretending that it's fine that I don't get paid anything when the industry standard for someone at my skill level are getting paid $50/hr at minimum. by industry standard I should be making $400-500 a day. I get paid nothing. I work 6 days a week, 52 weeks every year, am always on call, and do extra stuff that technically isn't even part of the "job". can I even call it a job if I'm not getting paid?

The user has spoken to FOUR other people before me. THREE of them senior advisors. They had the user update the OS. They had the user prepare to erase the entire computer because "System Data" was massive.

The user called me to get help preparing for wipe. I just checked the system folders and found 4x 25GB+ screenrecordings started by accident.

Is no one else doing their jobs?

#Universities really messed my head up. It's so #toxic in #HE, wish I'd never got involved. #WorkingClass #MatureStudent, #studentship #PhD, #postdoc & reality hit alongside the #bullying (it's common in #HE, you take it or you get out). Survived 14 years as an #academic, hate the #power, the ladder-climbing, & that it's now just #business. #Colleagues are #overworked, #underpaid & #absued. Almost a #blessing I became too #disabled to #work. A year later my mind is starting to work again.

My manager would give us 🍕 pizza and ice cream 🍨 to show us how much she ❤️ cared, but she would never 👂 hear us out when we were being overwork and underpaid. There is no fairness for 🏥 healthcare workers.

@denniskoch @WorkingFamilies I'm all for a guild of IT workers while we're at it. Guild-wide guidelines on work conditions and salaries? Sigh.

When your #Food comes via a #DeliveryApp, the #exploitation is baked right in

#DeliveryServices have changed the way we live, but they are only viable if someone is #underpaid. No wonder riders went on strike

A lot of Visual Effects artists are overworked and underpaid resulting in some atrocious CGI like in The Flash 2023.

After watching the 8:30 pm presentation of , I went to pick up some dinner in . This has always been open 24-hours a day. They are currently hiring at $13 per hour, the wage of . As I am about to get to the , a sign is posted explaining that between 11 pm and 5 am, prices are higher to cover extra expenses.

If you are asking for more and it is not going to the , you will not receive my business.

Today's job listing humor:

What you do: Among a bunch of stuff, you produce 28 articles for their online paper per week.

What they will pay: $200/month.

I hope this means they need to hire an editor for their job listings. Otherwise, someone get those people a union.

Our web team has four people on it. One person is out for the week on vacation and that means that for some reason me (who's a DBA, not on the web team) is the only one here who knows how to update certificates on keystores, so now I'm doing the work of two teams. Not sure what the other three on that team are doing...
