Looking for a new job...

Nov 05, 2006 18:10

upon discovering that my Fran's managers are actively trying to screw me over (either that or they are just really fucking dumb when it comes to maintaining a business and dealing with employees...probably a little bit of both), I am now actively seeking a job. Which sucks because I really like having my evenings free, and there's probably no where ( Read more... )

I think the Gladstone and Cadillac are a great place to start. As for the area, it's really not THAT bad. Parkdale is changing, soon it will be Yuppiedale. For now though, it's a decent area, no worse than the thugs on Yonge St, plus it's closer to your house.

Sucks that you need to find a new job. Hopefully you'll find something you like soon. :)

Fucking horrible timing too. I have so much schoolwork, not to mention that I hate job hopping and totally now abhorr working at night. And because so many of my serving jobs overlap each other, it makes my resume look sketchy. up until this past friday i wasn't even intending on finding a new serving job until after i graduated from school next year. I thought things were fairly peachy until I found out I was picnicing on a landmine. assholes.

Shitty timing indeed.
What's going on, anyway? And how did you find out?

LOTS OF BULLSHIT!! lunchables November 7 2006, 00:27:13 UTC

i fucked up opening a bottle of wine at a table, but I had told my manager that I couldn't do it properly in the first place. The bartender offered to do it for me but my manager said "no you have to learn." so then I got reamed out for not asking for help, why didn't I know how to do it in the first place (answer: I spent most of my serving years at a DIRTY SPORTS BAR that didn't sell wine! No practice=no wine experience! DUH!!) and blah blah blah. Then they started telling me that they've noticed my work ethic sliding. So then I asked them to tell me in what way and they were like well we can't think of any examples off the top of our heads, and I said why didn't you call me on my shit then when I was supposedly doing it, and they said they wanted me to be able to realize on my own that I'm too comfortable there and that I am not pulling my own weight there, apparently UNlike every other server there (keep in mind almost ALL the night servers show up a few minutes late for their shifts and I don't). The only example of bad work ( ... )
