Allstate agency in Colorado is put on blast after Reddit Post about benefits

[Al3x Lee]

A Reddit user posted pictures of his employee handbook after getting hired at Tom's Insurance and Financial Services Inc. of Parker, Colorado on the r/antiwork subreddit. Redditor, itsthatkid69, claimed he was 4 days into his new job after a couple of years off work and he "already wants to die".

His reason for wanting to die in this new job was due to the PTO, sick leave and benefits outlined in his employee handbook. it'sthatkid69 claimed he had left the position as of April 8th 2022, a day after the reddit post.

Within his replies to comments on the post he publicly posted the address and contact information for Tom's Insurance and Financial Services Allstate agency and encouraged users to leave Google reviews for the insurance agency. He said the job was "pretty f**ked all around" and that he was desperate.

As of Friday, April 8th the post has garnered a large amount of support from users of r/antiwork with 16,200 upvotes and 3300 comments after 1 day on the subreddit.

Perhaps he should apply to play on the girls team . . .

A lot of the sentiments on that subreddit are naive as hell, but not offering sick time is absurd and a violation of the HFWA.

That Reddit sub is pretty nuts. Basically any job with expectations will get roasted.

Do they have maternity leave on the girl's team?

Looks like a pretty standard contract from an Allstate agent. Hard to believe that the OP did not know any of this prior to accepting the position. How much time should the whiner get in the first year of employment for PTO? Most Allstate agents hire at 20-25K and don't offer any medical coverage.

The Allstate agent should replace him with a woman. That will cut his payroll cost by 17-27% based on studies of how you can pay women less for same work

Is a livable wage too much to ask. Every job, even after school jobs should pay enough to support a family of 5, house payment, safe eco friendly car, vacations, streaming services, tablet, smart phone, aka all the basic human rights essentials

But I am sure that the ad that he replied to said " salary to $80,000, paid benefits, Paid time off"

Don't. Hire. Leftists. EVER.

It sucks, but that's the world now.

When you employ people who believe that employment is the root of all evil, you get what you pay for.
