OP is more reasonable than most of the commenters.

Dude don’t ever compare someone being naïve and accepting to do free labor they could choose to walk away from at any time to actual fricking slavery, get a grip…[-7]


I can’t go on a rampage and make a bad name for myself by trying to, what, sue them for wages or something? It’s unrealistic and just the same way that holding a grudge hurts the person holding it the most, all that a lawsuit or tattle-tale to my bosses would do is snowball into a huge stressful thing that I’m never reasonably gonna “win”


Against what though… Like if you tried to report this to HR, what rules exactly would you say she was breaking? She asked me to volunteer when I got to an event and I agreed?


Meh I disagree, everyone else I met that was my age at the event was unemployed and bought a ticket to be there and try to find work, they were all jealous of my job and high salary plus the fact that I’m not freelance so I don’t have to hustle to get work. Yes I had to work the event but I got in for free, and I wasn’t there hustling to make my rent. There‘a two sides to the coin


But no offense I’m not gonna sue or report someone to HR over this, that turns what is essentially a bruised ego and a lesson I can shake off and grow from into a gigantic messy problem that will cause significantly worse effects on my life than if I just take this as a lesson and not accept shit like this next time around.

Saved the best for last:

Oh I got hammered and was openly drinking while serving so that was a bonus

Unironically the least r-slurred user of /r/antiwork. If they were smarter they wouldn't be a member of that sub at all though.
