Should've just introduced yourself and you woulda at least had gas money covered you ass. Stop thinking you better than those ppl just bc your doing your own thing. Ok, she was a bytch but she may not have been the real manager, just the person who does orientations ffs. Ppl in orientations are just trying to flex a lot of times. You should know that. You went through interview (i assume) unless it was a staffing agency so you should have just stayed
:umad:What I look like being a grown man ...working with his kids ....when I got an degree...I hold myself to an higher standard plus I don't need to money to survive because obviously I would have stayed

No I did do it...that's not the point

I'm saying I feel like that scenario was pride draining...it wasn't just that,it was the principle

why did you apply? those types of jobs usually say theyre min wage, and they wouldve told you when they hired you/set up the orientation.

It's really sad that people with degrees consider this as an option. That we often forget that the world is ours and life is what you make it.

Well, I dunno. I have a degree too and wouldn't want to be working min. wage, but I guess I would if I was desperate.

But that said, I'd assume you already knew it'd be a minimum wage job with a bunch of kids when you accepted it, so I'm not sure why you were surprised here...

I did it because the group would have a more diverse age range like retail for example... Also I didn't know I had to sit in a8 hr training class...I can use that time for something else

So you weren't drained of pride when you applied for a minimum wage job?
So you weren't drained of pride when you went to interviewed for a minimum wage job?
So you weren't drained of pride when the told you show up for orientation for the minimum wage job?

All of a sudden your pride climbed out the bushes when you realized that teenagers usually work minimum wage jobs.

Pride don't buy groceries homie.

I feel you but a job is a job, yeah ole used her title with every inch it grants her but it's making money or not making money. Now if you get another opportunity then it was the right decision. Good luck i hope you get a job & your boss isn't a prick about their authority.
