    Well, it's seems clear you were fired. This is the time when you, according to you, are supposed to be at work.

    Like I said before I don't work 7 days a week. I didn't get fired although I have learned not to trust my coworkers. I'm just going to go in, keep my mouth shut, do my job, and get out. I'm tired to trying to maintain a friendly relationship with them. It seems like everything I say or do gets repeated to everyone on all shifts. I work with a bunch of girls and they like to start and spread rumors.

        Thats the major one. I only get paid a fucking measly 7 bucks an hour and I have to eat a snack or a burger while I am there. I sure as fucking hell am not going to pay 70 bucks a month at a minimum to I don't go hungry at work. I can barely afford food at home. I'm just trying to get my feet on the ground and If I get fired because of that shit I will be steaming mad. :mad: They don't need to be profiting off of their own employees.

              It's really too bad you don't have any marketable skills or education - something that might let you gross at least as much as what most of the people here have taken out for taxes.

              Well, it seems they don't think you need to be eating for free. And it's their food. Not yours. So if you take it without permission you will not only get fired, you will be unable to collect unemployment. Then you won't have any problem worrying about whether you should pay for what you eat for lunch. You won't have any money at all. And of course, you won't be able to use them as a reference or even list them as a prior employer since you can hardly get another job after being fired for theft. Gosh the world sure is unfair, isn't it? :)

                  Is it even possible to live on $7 an hour? Is there such a thing as a minimum wage where he is?

                    As I have stated before I am a computer expert. I can fix any computer problem (hardware or software) quickly. I can also write my own software. I worked at CicuitCity as a PC technician, but I had to stand all day, work on a stupid little bench in the middle of the store with loud music and customers asking me questions. I only made an extra 2 dollars an hour of what I am making now.

                    I seriously don't think I will get fired, because I'm not the only one. I was told by another cook that cooks can snack on what they want as long as it isn't expensive.

                      Hey don't sell him short! Minimum wage is $6.25. That extra seventyfive cents means that one hour of of his work is worth two six-packs of soda. Or about what I leave as a tip when I take someone out to dinner.

                        Most computer experts I know make a lot more than $9.00 @ hour. Last place I worked paid their interns more'n that to learn how to do basic repairs and setups. But I guess you are glad to have taken a pay-cut, since now you don't have customers asking you questions and all. What would you have done with that extra 80 bucks anyway?

                        It's always the other guys, isn't it. Innocents like you just get screwed over royally. Although I didn't think that a restaurant whose customers were on welfare would feature t-bones on the menu.

                              I didn't quit, I was forced to resign because I failed to meet my sales quota. I forgot to mention I also had to sell.

                                  Yeah, it's funny how retail stores expect that. Long time ago, I worked retail and went to college at night. Started as a stockboy, ended up as department buyer.

                                  Well actually, resigning is a kind of quitting. It sounds like you got fired.

                                    It was either write a letter of resignation or be terminated.

                                      So by resigning you saved the state the trouble of having to pay you any unemployment compensation. Was that because of your political convictions?

                                        I didn't know about unemployment benefits back then. I didn't need them anyways because I was living with my dad and I wasn't too upset because I didn't like the job, and I made enough to buy the laptop I am using now. About 3 months later I worked on the regional manager of waffle house 's computer and he offered me a job, I wasn't too thrilled about being a cook, but its all good. He said I could apply at any waffle house in the area and I would be hired.

                                          Hey don't sell him short! Minimum wage is $6.25. That extra seventyfive cents means that one hour of of his work is worth two six-packs of soda. Or about what I leave as a tip when I take someone out to dinner.

                                          But can you actually live on that? Would he get health insurance from his employer or have to pay his own?
