Job Loss

Well I lost my job at the internet cafe, and I feel I
should discuss with you people here as this place has been a
part of my life for over a year. Well over a year....

Anyways, I lost my job today at the Internet Cafe and I will
be looking for a job next week to replace this one. Iam
pretty happy I lost this job actually - because I had to
work Thursday, Friday and Saturday Nights... which meant NO
parties or whatever all my other friends were off at bars
and clubs while I worked..... this went on for months, even
now that I need to look for a job again which totally sucks
ass, Im sorta happy this all is done now... for sure.

Did you do anything to deserve the termination of your
employment?

yeah, don't really know what to say....
what fits more? "congrats" or "I'm sorry for that"?! :-)

as long as you're pretty happy with it, I should say
"congrats" :-)

Good luck though with your job search! :-)

Perhaps there is someone in this comunity that can give you
a job. I would give you a job in seconds if I was in a
position to and if I worked in Edmonton.
Tell us what you can do and perhaps someone may employ you.

Oh god, man... I wish I could get a job at an internet
cafe... I don't care, I'd work all night, anytime, I'm not a
partier anyway. Well, sounds like you're fine with it, but
I'd be crying right about now if I lost such a cushy job.

Oh yeah, I'm unemployed, as well. I'd like it to stay that
way, I am the KING of laziness... but, alas, I must soon
start making my OWN money and stop being a parasite to my
mommy. Woe is me!

you just happened to "lose" your job?... have you checked
the last place you remember leaving it?

just seems funny the way he phrases it... i would think he
probably had an emotional outburst and got fired or walked
out in a huff... but, well, he just "lost" it, you know,
left it sitting out on a table, and next thing he knew it
had disappeared!

walked out

The last place I worked at was MCI, telemarketing, and it
was the worst.

I know work with some of my friends at a local sub shop,
where we get high in the cooler and play cards all day.

I used to work as a waiter and people used to treat me like
crap. I've vowed never to work in catering again. Reflex:
Why not get a job at a PC store? You'll still be able to get
online there :)

Just please don't be like those pc world people who when you
ask them something they say' hang on, let me just check' and
run away and never return.

I doubt that Id be able to get a job at the PC places
here... my attitude isnt that great when it comes to
customer relations, trust me!

Just wear a t-shirt saying "Don't Fuck with ME" ;)

I know what you mean, jobs can be such a drag when you have
to be polite to people who are rude or wrong and they can
see you're pissed off, but know you can't do anything about
it. The swines.

I'd have to buy a lot of vodka to make the trip financially
beneficial! What types of vodka do you stock?
