i'm a dumba**

[1Kris06]

like the title states, i'm an idiot and got fired from my job. i'm looking into sprint right now. anyone know of any other places that are hiring around stillwater/the cities?

i don't have internet at my place, so responses are going to be slow and far in between.

If you're gonna say something like "I'm an idiot and got fired from my job" you can't leave us hanging without saying what it is you did to get fired.

If I find any good job listings I'll be sure to post 'em up for ya.

what happened? and what type of work are you looking for? That sucks man.

i was supposed to work sat 4-1030. i called in sick around noon cuz i really was feeling sick. then around 8ish i started feeling better, so i went and hung out with 2 coworkers who were having a going away dinner party. and apparently since i called in sick, i'm supposed to be sick the whole day and not do shit if i start feeling better. i'm guessing someone spotted me at the TIGF and told one of the sups the next day, cuz i know for sure that no one at TGIF would have said anything. anyways, i go into work sun night, buy some food for dinner. then i get 'the talk', they fire me, i chuck my discount card at them, take out my phone and call my parents. i go outside, calm down, go back into the store, eat my cold hotdog, then the AP guy says 'they don't want you up here much longer. sorry, i have to kick you out'. i know the AP and he's a nice guy, so i say 'whatever, it was nice working with you' and left.

i'm kinda looking at anything right now, i've got a car pmnts that i have to make to my parents and i'm not going to bail on them cuz they aren't a bank and aren't going to take my car if i don't pay.

i know sprint has a couple retail openings and i'm looking into that right now. and since i don't have interent, so i have to be a library bum to use it...so its kinda annoying to have to drive 3 miles to get to the library.

I have done the same thing at a job before. It feels like shit when you do it but everything gets better after a while.

Also if you want retail try the mall both Tom and I have work in several stores there and the work is simple but the pay can be low. Both tom and I worked at Pac Sun and i also worked at the Buckle. In fact if you go into the Rosedale mall and talk to Kim at the Buckle I can bet she is looking for help.




By the way where did you work? If you don't mind telling.

That sucks, man. From one recently unemployed man to another, :draught2:

Yea, that happened to me once at an SA. I told the manager I wanted a day off, she still put me on for that day. I told my sup repeatedly I was not going to be in that day, and he was cool with that. Well that day came and went, went in the next day and the manager told me I was fired. I ended up getting unemployment that was more then enough for me to live on for a few months then landed the job that I've been at now for 6 years. Never know, this could end up being a really good thing for you when you look back in the future; it was for me.

i think the sprint job i'm looking into is at the rosedale mall. i guess if it was around 8-9/hour (doubtful) it would be an OK part time job.

i think i stated it in my 2nd post....i was at target.

i don't hate the corporation, it was more the store i was working at in st cloud.

edit: also moved back to stillwater today....let the job hunting begin
