So today I bought a ticket for myself and my mom. I activated one ticket thinking it would activate both but it didn’t so I had to activate the other on the spot and he scans it a second later. I knew I’d get a warning which sucks now cause honest mistake and the conductor knew that.

Then 20 mins later the same conductor looks at another 3 peoples tickets on their phone but doesn’t scan it. Even the person was confused and said aren’t they gonna scan it.

I feel like the conductor deliberately scanned my ticket so that I can get a warning/fine. Cause why is it that he’s not scanning anyone’s else ticket but mine when it was an honest mistake? He saw one of my tickets was activated already.

Absolute as*hole move on his part. This new activation rule really sucks ass and the conductors who pull moves like this can kick rocks.

I had a stellar employee review this year (second year in a row) and did raise a concern about the cost of living, but I didn’t ask for a raise or promotion, just noted that my workload and responsibilities have increased and, to be honest, are surpassing what my role entails. A couple of weeks later, I was told that he and our department head had agreed on giving me a raise and promotion, which was a shock to me because I didn’t really ask, but I was happy to be getting it either way. The promise was that the raise would be fulfilled with the April raise pool.

Now, with April coming to an end, I haven’t heard anything from my manager, and I have a feeling it might not actually happen. I know I shouldn’t have been so gullible as to believe it would happen, but alas, here I am lol. I’m at a point now where I really don’t care to do my job anymore after this whole ordeal, especially since I do 10x the work my peers do and am earning less than them. With me being in NYC earning $65k a year and the rising cost of living, I’m just getting more resentful about being here and have noticed that my productivity has lessened this month.

I’m really considering leaving now for another opportunity, but I know this isn’t exactly an employee’s market, so I feel like I should just count my blessings in having a job, but I simply cannot stand doing more work than is expected of me anymore.
