30 People Describe Bad Working Conditions In Twitter Thread Called The "Nobody Wants To Work Anymore" Starter Kit

Twitter users share how unfair their employers are.

Some workplaces still act surprised when people walk away from bad pay, unpaid labor, and rigid rules. That frustration is exactly what sparked a Twitter thread from Janel Comeau, who pulled together a blunt “nobody wants to work anymore” starter kit filled with the kind of job conditions that push applicants away.

The thread quickly drew replies from other users, many of whom shared their own examples of low wages, unfair expectations, and employers who seemed out of touch. It is a familiar pattern online, where bad workplace behavior gets called out fast and screenshots do the talking.

The responses only got sharper from there.

By the end, the pattern was hard to miss.

Have you experienced such unfair treatment?

Sadly, these conditions are very prevalent today. Fortunately, there's no need to experience this unfair treatment firsthand.

We can easily check their reputation online. Through reviews, you'll learn how these companies treat their employees.

If these individuals were treated unfairly, they would likely want to retaliate against their employers. The best way to do this is to expose their wrongdoings for everyone to see.

Nobody wants to work for free.
