This is seriously fucked up but I wake up and no more than 5 minutes pass and I get a call from my boss at Radio Shack telling me they're letting me go. And for the worst reason. I'm loyal as fuck, I'm never late, I'm very helpful, and I'm quite intelligent, but they decide that their little fucking 'wireless hit rate' [how many cell phones I sell] is more important. Motherfuckers. They said to check in in a few weeks because someone else is probably gonna quit but to hell with that. I hated that job anyways.
Well then, maybe it's a good thing. I mean, you said you hated the job anyway, so now you can go out and find a better one, nothing holding you back. Sorry about what happened though. I'd be angry too.
It is so sad to see labor being upset at being exploited. How do you expect corporate America to survive if we do not keep a high enough level of unemployment to provide a good-sized pool of low paid labor?
Are you seriously asking that question Paul or was that a rant? Anyway, Heero, this sounds like one of those "blessings in disguise" to me.
well to be honest, I've never been to Radio Shack when the employees didn't annoy me, and you don't seem annoying...maybe you just didn't fit in
yeah, I hate going into radio shack, because as soon as you get in there, they ask you what you are lookin for.......
i also hate going to radio shack. espiecially the one close by as the employees there seem more annoying then usual.
RadioSmut totally blows. We HAVE to help the customers or we get bitched at by the district manager. He watches our cameras like a hawk. And yes, the shit there is totally overpriced, even WITH the employee discount. Anyways this was very fun for me: I just got hired at the subway sammich shop! In less than 4 hours, I was fired then hired. I walked in at the perfect time; a previous employee quit the night before, and they desparately needed a closer (usually 5-10pm shift) and I came by, ordered a sammich, asked if they were hiring, and they nearly soiled themselves. I go in today at 6:00! What delicious luck~ Fritos: they make lunch much better.
I agree. Tell them to fuck off. Sounds like management there has some severe issues that they need to work through. BTW...you are probably better off working somewhere else anyhow. Radio Shack sucks ass. Try Best Buy or something.
Radio Shack blows. My brother was a store manager until the late 1980s. They fired him for having gay sex with another employee. Bastards.
well.... work relationships where one is in a position of power over the other are frowned upon, regardless of teh genders involved
