Comment on The joy of quitting a shit job with an asshole boss
buddascrayon@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoMost people aren’t working on a contract. And in the U.S. most states are at-will employment (something companies lobby heavily for) meaning you can be fired for any reason whatsoever, but is also means you can quit at any time you like in whatever manner suits you.

Really? I’ve signed a contract for every job I’ve ever worked at that spelled out the terms of my employment. It’s not like a company hires you with a firm handshake.

Then you’ve led a charmed life cause most of us get hired on a handshake and a nod.

Where the fuck are you finding these jobs? I’ve signed contracts for blue collar work, white collar work, and even summer camp jobs I worked in high school.

If you’re in the US then no, you didn’t. You signed stuff, but it wasn’t a contract
