you should do what jerry did on seinfeld. a telemarketer called and he asked him for his number so he could call him back at home, and the guy was like "sorry i cannot do that" and jerry was like "why you don't wnat people calling you at home" and the gguy was like "yeah" and jeryy was like "well there you go" and hung up or something along those lines... ahh i have a bad memory, but it was so funny!

well if you're really in the need of money i guess you can take the job (if you can handle someone swearing at you like that). anyways most people i know that took jobs like that haven't stayed with them long. mostly it's just to make a few bucks and then you're gone in like a month or two.

That's true. I guess I should just stay with them for a bit and bounce haha. That's if i even LAST a month with his attitude. I just don't want him to end up pissing me off so bad that I don't even show up for work but then a week later show up to get my pay cheque and he wont even give it to me because that has happened to my friend working at a telemarketing place. The guy always fucked up her on her paycheck intentionally and tried to not give her her last pay cheque when she quit -.-

then tell them about the regulations!
i told my manager about the 4% pay and OT and crapp...got $100 =D if i never asked, i wouldn't have gotten it back.

but it depends on how much you can tolerate. for me, i wouldn't work somewhere where ppl are bitching at me all the time. and no offence but you shoulda told them about your appointment first

NOOO!!!!!!! I work at blockbuster and the ONE thing i hate the most is when people complain about our return policy. After explaining to them what the hell it is they still call it a late fee. God damnit people it's not hard to return your movies for other people to rent them. I don't understand why people are complaining about 2 bucks? It stays as 2 bucks as long as you return the damn thing.

i guess the only perk is 10 free rentals (15 if you use your 10 before Wednesday) and movies a week before they come out on shelves.

>> now i want a new job.

No offence taken, I told them I can start work on February the 18th because of my other job and he said he needed someone ASAP. Well, if I'm going to meet your needs, why can't you meet mine? I can't cancel my appointments just because you need someone "ASAP". You know what I mean? Well my friend did ask for it back, and she demanded her comission he basically paid her at six bucks and he wouldn't even give it to her until she brought her sister's boyfriend to rage on him..

wtf!? that's so rude. she was normally supposed to be paid more than 6 right? if its the same company, i recommend you don't even bother working there!

Go to Xentel @ waterfront station, the managers there are suppper nice! they let you have days off- no problem. i game them 1 week advance before i quit..my friend just told them the day before! (not to mention she doesnt bother calling in sick, and she missed liek 3 days of work for her other job)

I think some people don't care because they're not going to use it as reference or on their resume. So whats the point if you hated the job to be all nice to them (i know... karma). But if your not going to use them in the future, you don't need to worry much.

Re: Any Job openings available?

working is facing society & reality....you will know more when you age. FYI many people do hate their jobs and/or boss. But you gotta sacrifice something to get money..there's no free lunch.
