    I'll probably just get baked before since my managers won't be working so that'll be chill, but yeah haha.

    it was a 9pm to 3am shift. overnite cleaning and breakfast prep. awesome job, no benefits to speak of, or significant pay, i was making $9.50/hr. weak. but after the first 3 hours, i was done, go out back and burn, come back in and prep some sandwiches for the residents for midnight snacks, chat with the nurses and hear stories of the dirty old men in the place. hilarious!

    I really can't tell if you are complaining or bragging, but if you are complaining, continue reading.
     
     
    It happens. You are not a kid anymore. You are working for the employer, not the other way around. I did grocery retail for 17 years, 1979-1996, and a lot of times had to work holidays.
     
    Grow up and deal with it. The  people under 30 feel that they have so much entitlement to crap. Get over it and work when you are scheduled to.

    Woah there lol. I was just looking to see if anybody was on the same boat as me. I didn't even say it sucked or anything you just made it seemed like I was extremely upset hahaha. It sucks yeah, but I'm not that upset about it :confused_2:

    Read the top of my post please. You really didn''t say in your OP if you were happy or sad. Couldn't tell.
     
    If I am that guy you are referring to, that was not my intent. I only came on here today to post a new thread about flushing my plants. Royal Flush is title. Has had 11 views, 3 by me, but no comments. Anyhow, sorry if I sounded pissy, but I just remember having to work all holidays, not every year, didn't like it, but had to do what I was asked since I worked for them. 
    Wanting to start a Pawn Shop soon. Name it Pawn, Gone and Glass. Sell some smooth tobacco smoking items in the back. Pawn shops are making 15-19% interest on short term loans. Better than any bank.
