Nah... I can't deal with that. My level of patience is low for people with an attitude like thatThat's the point! So I can be SMART and RIGHT for once!I love it when they tell me I'm stupid and I must be new...
It gives me good stories to scare my friends with whom have never been in retail. I have more tolerance for people I interact with in retail, than I do in my own crazy Italian family.
I actually had a mid 40's guy throw a coffee machine at me 8 years ago because I asked him politely to step aside so I can help another customer while he was waiting for his wife, whom was searching for another coffee pot. The f***er had some pair of balls to tell me he wasn't moving and he was staying right where he is. So I said something under my breath of "go f*** yourself" and he threw the s***ty coffee pot at me! My managers heard the disturbance and escorted the man out, meanwhile he's screaming his balls off out in the parking lot saying that I should be fired for my snotty attitude.

Work hard for some money man. Go for it! I'd kill for that opportunity right now. I get paid Bi-weekly and it's perfectly fine. Nothing wrong with it at all. You're getting paid the same amount, just gotta budget. If it makes you feel better just take half of your check and put it into savings or to the side until a week after you get paid and then consider it a check. I've never understood the worry with bi weekly pay. Budget, budget, budget.

This. It's all about budgeting.
40 hrs a week is being worked to death? Lol. Ive put over 40 hours in in two days sometimes...
Suck it up and be a man and get a real job and stop bitching...
No, overtime. They get swamped sometimes.

What type of job is it?
Speaking of this.. I just got offered a job climbing cell phone towers for a company called overland contracting. 800 dollars a week living expenses, starting out making 60 thousand a year... Real ass opportunity for me.
The only negatives are that I would be gone three weeks out of the month. Every month. I'm not scared of heights so I'm not worried about climbing the towers, this company doesn't f**k around with safety either so that's not my concern. It's just the time away from home.
It's definitely a lot to think about.
I'd finally be able to get a house of my own..
Gah... What do y'all think?

Do whatcha gotta do. Being away from home sucks, but its not so bad when u dont have kids. I say jump all over it!
I'm really tempted but I just don't know. I've always been a bit of a home body and three weeks out of the month every month is a lot of time. A lot of money too though.
I just don't know. I wish I could find a job with similar pay but local.

Tire rotations, learning the alignment rack, oil changes. General service technician.
I am telling u this hoping it wont make u mad...
When u r my age you are going to have a ton of regrets and wish u wouldve jumped all over some of these opportunities...
At home, bored, catching up on work and pics.
If you don't need to sign a contract, why not just try it out? I'd do it strictly for the travel and build up a $ cushion before leaving if I didn't like it.
Yeah, I saw Storch's collection soon after he picked it up...then lost it and everything else. House has since been owned by Rockstar Energy CEO and was recently picked up by Baby, Birdman, whatever he goes by these days.

I cant remember the last time i worked 40 hrs lol but I can work 20 or 100 and still get paid the same. Being salary is different though then getting an hourly wage. My suggestion is get a degree and make real money, my check today was for over 2500 
and I get paid at the end and middle of the month.
and I get paid at the end and middle of the month.Most of the time college is a waste...
And $2500 a check isnt really very good money nowadays...

Don't ever worry about making me mad. Brutal, honest advice is what I'm looking for. Man to man advice, you think this would be in my best interest?
That's what I'm thinking..
The only catch, is I've built a close relationship with my current employer and this would be undoubtedly burning the bridge to my current place of work. He thinks I'm in it for the long haul so I know my leaving will be seen as a betrayal.
