Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

My work recently changed their policy, we get 48 hours sick time a year. If you use it it's counted as an occurrence against you. Three occurrences in a rolling year and you're put on disciplinary action.

Here's your new benefit ...but you better not use it.

You can't make shit like that up.

Man, it makes me sad when I hear shit like this. Guessing you're from the US?

You guys hiring? That must be a fun one when prospective new hires get the benefits package information.

That's probably not something they'd be willing to share with you until you're hired, similar to salary I'm guessing.

What? Are you saying that people aren't informed of their salary or benefits package until they're actually hired?

A lot of jobs these days will actually list compensation packages on the job descriptions.
