Hard to trust particularly my bosses when I worked 4 years at my last job with 0 complaints, doubling every desired performance metric and got laid off anyways, lol

The best piece of advice I received since beginning my working life is that management isn't your friend. My old boss gave that to me...then he fired me a month later. Never forgot it, and it's only more true now

The most abusive relationship I’ve ever been in was from my employer, not from a girlfriend/spouse.

The comment about ghosting & automated application processes is a huge part of it. Impersonality erodes trust insanely quickly

I worked for a bank for 5 years (19-24) and they started building a fancy new technological version of the branch down the street with the intention of closing down MY branch and none of us were be guaranteed a job there or at any branch, nor were we informed until a month before closure.

My very first job, I was 17 working in a family owned store. It did decently well and had several employees. The owner was racist, so I didn’t trust her to be fair about anything. I tracked my hours on my own and deducted the taxes so that I would know exactly how much my paycheck was supposed to be. They shorted my check $80. I confronted them, and they eventually payed me what they owed. I told all my coworkers about it and urged them to track their hours. They were shorting everyone. All the other girls were in disbelief because they really trusted her and I (the youngest and newest employee) had to tell them they should never trust any employer because given the chance they WILL steal from you.

Could you blame us? We were promised a world of stability and blossoming economy our whole lives and yet got given the sh*t end of the stick. To the point where we might not even get the social security we pay for every week!

could it also be that our entire society is based on scams and grifts to extract as much value from each person as possible

Yeah because people will get upset with you and then snitch about stuff and get you fired. I’m friendly with coworkers but they’re not my friends 💀

Built a process from scratch (by myself!) that was proved to increase customer satisfaction scores, lowered service calls, and added $1M in revenue in one year. Asked for a raise after 2.5 years without one. Told I was being greedy. The CEO built a new house. I still live with my parents. Why should I trust leadership?

St. Mello :
Why would we ever trust a company/employer that only values me based on how much many I make? Especially when we live in a society where people spend their entire lives working and still struggle to afford to survive

Left an employer for many different reasons only to find they were tracking my personal computer months after quitting. Community mental health. Be careful!

Theresa Plantern :
I do NOT trust my coworkers like that. I kept my job search hidden for months, even when people casually asked if I was interviewing or looking to move/leave I said no. I even made up a fake story about looking at rentals close by and even said I found a place. I resigned a week later and everyone was shocked lmao. I was not about to lose my livelihood just to make them feel better.
