Could we have a little more explination here. Why does work suck and why do you hate it? What does your boss do that makes him a "dill-hole"? Where do you work?

so, I wrote that this morning on my way to work, so there wasn't much time. ok, I work in the shipping dept of a labor law poster publishing company (here )
aaaanyways, i got my hours cut from 35/wk to 12. it's kind of hard to live on $400/mo. seeing as my rent is $525..etc. I got my hours cut because i've been "distracting the other employees" That's kind of hard since I work in shipping which is 3 guys total and the business aspect of the office is on the second floor (we take up the whole first floor), so it's kind of hard to bug people. Also, he doesn't want to pay for my health insurance (20 work hours a week, min).
Friday was, well, typical friday, do nothing and can't wait to get out. so, I cut up a card board box, taped up a bunch of fedex labels and made a mini basketball hoop. When the owner came in for some odd reason, he saw it and lectured me about unprofessionalism and told me to write 10 things i've done wrong in the company.
i dunno, i'm just pissed at this company and need a new job. any monkeys need a good wrench turner?

So since you f*cked up, that place sucks, and you want to work full time and have benefits at some place where you can screw around and distract people.

Good luck.

Ok.

BTW, announcing where you work and posting a link in thread where you're bashing the place ain't too smart.

Like I said, good luck.

No. it's hard in places like South Dakota or Alaska, not the Bay Area. Check out broadcasting school, or courses at the community colleges. It's out there.

dude, look at SFSU. their broadcasting program is PACKED every semester. KVHS fills up immediately. it would be easy to get into SD or AK because nobody wants to be there and everyone wants to be in the bay area.

Maybe he was referring to the other 2 guys you work with in shipping? You know, the ones probably wondering why you're making basketball hoops out of shipping materials while they work?

Work construction. Plenty of work if your able bodied.

Your job is bad? My job is going to suck. I will have to clean an auto hanger filled with busses and lexus company SUV's. And the bathrooms. But, its the only job i felt like doing that paid semi Ok. 8.50 an hour, and i can work 40 hours a week. I dont care how bad my job is or how bad my summer is going to suck. As long as I get a car at the end of the summer I will be happy.

It never ceases to amaze me how people whine about how things aren't handed to them on a silver platter. It's especially bad amongst teens and young adults.

No. You're whining. Just go get another job. :nopity:

It's not rocket science, after all.

Look for a job at school. That's where I found it easiest to match schedules...... I ended up working in a computer lab for 3-1/2 years whilst attending college. Great gig.
