Alright. Time to vent my anger.

I just got a phone call from my mom, right? Her and I have worked at the same place for about two months now. It's an animal hotel. It seems like a great job, working with animals, right?

**** NO.

The STUUUUUUPID owners are selfish, greedy pigs who only care about money. They take in 112 dogs (our max capacity is 75), and sit on their lazy asses and make the employees work 10 hour shifts with no lunch, no breaks ALL DAY.

what makes it worse, is I just got my check today. I'm supposed to make $7.50 an hour, which makes up for the ****** job I has. NO. i was cheated (i should sue...), and got only $6.25 an hour (minimum wage in Montana).

im only 15, but the effort and dedication I put into this job was recognized by the people I worked with. The other people said that my help was awesome.

How I got "fired", you ask?

Well, my mom is the one that got me this job (im such a mommys boy :p). I worked with her every day, and with only 4 people doing the work of 12, my presence was a "miracle" as to quote one of the employess.

My boss, who had called my mom into her office like half an hour ago, told her that she thinks my presence in the workplace is, and I QUOTE, "A distraction and an imposing force". My mom was flabbergasted. She told my boss that she was wrong, and I got fired.

Ah well. I hated it there, anyway.

NEW JOB COMING SOON! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That stinks. I wanna be a pro skater or a a musician. My fall back is to work as a salesman at Guitar Center, or GFX designer, or website designer.

Mmsven is russian (I think)
And to the guy who wants to be a pro skater:
I know a guy who can hardflip a 5 stair barely trying, but he can't get sponsored. Even by a local skateshop.

About $10 per paycheck. One of the big detractors is that we don't get paid breaks.

For the short period of time (5th December to 22nd February) that I worked in the Tesco Petrol Station, I was getting £5.945 an hour, shame that the contract ended.
They got 2 new people instead which is annoying, as when I was working there, I was the only person who had done any stock rotation, so I removed like 40 out-of-date bottles off the shelf :S .
Now i'm trying to get work once more, which I hate since there's not much around here.

My bro's a jammy git aswell, he gets something like £8.05 an hour for working in a call centre, which I would hate since I dont like talking on phones :p .

Mike.
