Yay Im unemployed!

Okay the yay is only for the loss of this job, I'd really kill for another BETTER one. Ugh today as you know I was havin problems sleepin. Well I fell asleep at 7 and woke myself up at 10 ready to go to work. After 2 cups of tea I went upstairs to dress and realized that I could barely see straight. My head hurt and I was goin on bout 6 hrs of sleep. I figured it may be my fault but driving in that condition is NOT fun and VERY dangerous (I've done it before) and this was just silly. I was sick of bending over backwards for a job I hated, didnt *technically* need, and was just ready to be done with. So I went downstairs and called Bonanza and they told me Tom wasn't in. I'd been told on Friday that he was the guy in charge of scheduling and so to fix these problems I'd need to get in touch with him. They said he wouldnt be in tell 11 (when I was supposed to be in.) So I slept an hour and called back. He STILL wasn't in so I asked to speak to the current manager which was the guy who owns the restraunt and had hired me. Hes a very sweet guy and I always thought it was nice of him to give me a chance so I felt bad even being in the situation. I mean I've been ready to quit for a week, on Friday I'd even gone to work determined to but I didnt have the heart... Anyways he said I needed to come in now or forget it, no way to change my schedule and he didnt even give me a chance to discuss changing postions (there was talk of moving me from waitress to buffet food preparer) or anything to remedy the problem! I said 1) I cant Im at home which is a half hour away, 2) I cant keep driving up there for 2 hours of work (yes they scheduled me for one hour of work today but usually you work 2-3) I just plain cant afford it. So he said either come in or be fired. I said I was sorry but I couldn't and this just wouldn't work. I guess that counts as being fired but I like to think of it as a mix of fired and quit LOL!

So anyways thats the update, tomorrow-Wenesday Im busy but on Thursday I might go job hunting again. Hope I didnt come off as a snob in the story Im just to tired to even think straight (I've barely slept since)...I'm happy though; I mean sure he was nice and all but nothing (minus expierence) was good about that job. Crappy pay, Crappy work to do, Crappy other managers and certain workers, Crappy hours, LOL nothing good!

Date: 6/13/2004 2:47:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15675    lol it never cut much into my USM time I'm thankful for that   
Date: 6/13/2004 5:26:00 PM  From Authorid: 22992    Hmm well hope you can find a job closer to home  
Date: 6/13/2004 6:35:00 PM  From Authorid: 53052    i dont think they are legally allowed to schedule for shifts under 4 hours... i know here they cannot unless you are a "student" with a student job on a student wage(they have this thing where they will pay a student with no experince less then a person with experince to give them work experince and managers will take more of a chance on them) and i think the minimum wage for them is 2 hours  
Date: 6/13/2004 6:50:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 15675    hmm Midnightly I dunno :/. Alls I know is like what they've been doing is making this a part time job. Im still under 18 I dunno if that has anything to do with the hours or not (I doubt it because Im sure someone could get a full time job at this age as long as it didnt violate labor laws.) Alls I know is like at most they have me work 15-20 hrs a week. Like they had me scheduled for 15 but it probably ended up bein 20. Like they'd say 4-6 and I'd be there usually tell 7 finishing my shift. Most of my shifts would be scheduled 2-4 hrs and one of them (it never happened more then once) was 6 hrs. They did this 1 hr (which usually turns into 3) shift thing to me 3 times and Im like oh forget it because ya know I just cant make it up there for that. Oh well not much I could do I dont think :S  
Date: 6/13/2004 11:47:00 PM  From Authorid: 28190    There is no job out there that you dont have to deal with stuff every day that you dont like, no matter if its a job you love. But with this situation, I can see why you are relieved. No way in heck would I drive, if i still did, 2 hours to and from work just to work a 2 to 3 hour shift.. Nu uh, not this lady.. I hope you find something that is better suited for you and closer to home so your daily trek isnt so treacherous. *hugs*  
Date: 6/14/2004 12:32:00 AM  From Authorid: 26452    Wow, I can see why you quit,I wouldn't drive that long for such a short amount of time working. And (here anyway) its legal to work full time under 18, at my old job the girl I worked with worked full time and I worked 28 hours a week. I loved that job, we worked 8 and 10 hour shifts, but for $7 an hour I was quite happy(min wage here is $5.50)
