Even with labor laws, unfair practices still happen in the workplace. Recent research reveals that 80% of employees feel unjustly treated by their employers. This list will show some of that through images from the Antiwork subreddit.
These photos expose the improper behavior of some companies, particularly their ridiculous bans on employees. Some rules prohibit drinking water, calling off from work, and even sitting down.
Unfortunately, this is the reality that some people must go through daily to make ends meet.

#17 My Job Has Been Lying About The Break Rules For The Year And A Half I’ve Been Here
This sign heavily implies you need to work a 6 hour shift to get a 15 minute break. I’m assuming with the defense my manager gave that she did not know someone wrote in the 3rd line.
But basically every now and then we will be scheduled to work 5 and a half hours instead of the usual 6 hour shift. This entire time I was never allowed to take the break. But apparently it has been the rule that you only need a 4 hour shift to get that break.
I feel so angry at this and really want to quit. There’s a bunch of other small things like this that piss me off and I have been looking for another job for months without success.
