'I have another job during the weekends': Boss changes employees schedule with two days notice, forcing them to choose between this or abandoning their second job


If you're working a full-time job that doesn't pay you enough to make ends meet, why on earth are you working that job? Better yet, how are they justifying paying you less than the basic living wage? Then when you eventually have to go and take up a second job to make up for the shortfall, how dare they go and make an issue about it, harping on about "loyalty" as if you owe them an ounce of it.

This was the matter at hand when a user on Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit community shared a highly personal account of their experience within their workplace. In their post, they illustrated the many challenges and obstacles they faced from their boss when their boss suddenly decided to change their schedule at the last minute, forcing them to choose between their two jobs. Their account sparked discussion in the comments, which provided insights into the broader issues and trends impacting workers today. The post was widely shared and generated debate among members of the community.
