Legally, yes. When I got here, it was actually data entry. It’s better to just come out and say, “I was hired to do a business analyst position, but it’s turned out the work they need done is mainly data entry.”. If I had left, I would be fired.

A lot of the work is data-entry and envelope stuffing kind of work, so it seems quite possible to do outside of typical business hours. I’m very much so an early morning person and would much rather work 8-4 or even 7-3 than the 9-5 that is expected. What’s my best bet here? You can absolutely ask for that type of schedule!

Can I voluntarily give up my legally required lunch break? The work is mostly data entry, nothing so complicated as to necessitate giving my mind a break. Call her and spell out exactly the situation she has put you in: “I resigned my job after you hired me. Do you still plan to bring me on board?”

There are a lot of legal restrictions on how employers can use a person’s criminal record in hiring decisions. I do data entry and clerical stuff for an insurance broker. Employers cannot legally dock people’s pay for making mistakes, since mistakes are a normal part of doing business. I don’t think this is correct.

The department that left it was Legal! Data entry, people cages, nipple clamps, hand-embroidered baby quilts. For the most part, it was okay: cute poses with rubber duckies, a little bathroom humor (the elf pooping a Hershey’s Kiss), that sort of thing… until my department got it. I work in HR.
