Do you have a job?
Do you have a job of any kind? I am a web developer but I work for myself as it's easier instead of worrying about a boss
Re: Do you have a job?
I don't have a job. A couple years ago I used to volunteer at the local library after school once a week, but I got fired. I wasn't getting payed, so I'm really not sure why. :/

Re: Do you have a job?
I used to volunteer at the SPCA, but I quit because the people there were a bunch of jerks, and they were neglecting to give me my promotion even though I kept bugging them to turn in my reccommendation.
Re: Do you have a job?
If they fired you for no reason that is unreasonable. Especially the fact you were doing it for free. If it was me I would of asked for payment of some kind.quackers are yummylicious wrote:I don't have a job.

Re: Do you have a job?
The reason they gave us was that I had taken too many sick days. I had skipped about three weeks in a row between strep throat and my grampa's funeral.

Re: Do you have a job?
That's ridiculous. I skipped a few shifts due to sickness and a debate tournament, and they didn't fire me.
Re: Do you have a job?
The best part? My mom apparently told me I had been fired when I had a fever of 103, and didn't bother to remind me on the day I was supposed to go up. She usually drove me there, but I had to walk from the school to the library, which while it's not ridiculously far, it's all up hill while carrying a twenty pound backpack. I got there and it was really awkward.

I work for my dad. He owns a Heating and Air company and I work 40+ hours during the summer. And occasionally during the school year. Its alright and I make a lot of money but I am thinking of finding a new job for during the school year to get more steady income then.

Re: Do you have a job?
Bumping this, I had a job for a little while in the summer during weekdays where I worked doing grunt work in a warehouse that my friend's dad has a management job at. It was kind of shitty because of how little they actually had for us to do on most days (we basically just cleared up all of their mistakes in their packaging), but it paid well and gave me the knowledge of what I definitely do not want to do with my future.
Re: Do you have a job?
It was worth the bump, even though everyone knows I work at Subway. I shall proclaim it proudly because my coworkers are awesomesauce.
Re: Do you have a job?
Subway is awesome. I'm unemployed though.

Re: Do you have a job?
I used to be a cook at a bar & grill downtown of my city.
I left so I can co-coach a FLL Robotics team.

Right now I don't. That's fairly normal for me though. I do a lot of information security contract work - penetration testing and policy consulting, stuff like that. I typically work a 3-4 month contract then have a month or two off before another contract comes around.

Re: Do you have a job?
I did a little bit of robotics and programming work with my uncle this past summer, and I'll most likely start again this upcoming summer.

There's a bookstore down the road I'd like to work at. It seems like a nice little place.
