    I somehow missed this thread, but that really sucks. Sounds like it may have been for the best though. Good luck with the hunt.

    i agree with everyone else, and if what you are saying is true, and have some sort of documentation...it should be an easy win...

    i worked at a fancy restaurant as a valet...and the manager was a complete idiot, and would come out side and bitch at me for stuff that i had absolutly nothing to do with (like wat goes on in the kitchen) hell, he wouldnt let any of the valet's get any food, or even a glass of water, or even use the toilet, we had to go piss in the bushes, and drink water out of the hose (no joke, workin in the summer and winter sucked) and when it is 0 degrees out side, even when there is only one customer left to leave at the end of the night, we had to stand outside in the cold.

    SO after a while, i got sick, and i ended up having to quit because standing out in the cold every night was just making me worse

    Douchebag bosses run businesses into the ground, luckily the owner (David Burke whose a famous chef in NY) booted the asshole, because he quickly realized that the asshole had no idea what he was doing, and was constantly making everyone feel like shit who worked in the restaurant and the new guy who is cool. im thinkin of going back in the summer

    Moral of the story, this douchebag will pay his dues. what goes around comes around! dont worry, things might work out for the better dont worry, you'll find another job(maybe better than the last with more $$).

    Wow, what a trip man. Not only is he a major league but then he tries to make himself feel better by letting you know what a tortured soul you are. He'll get his soon enough, karma is a bitch.

    I have a friend who works for DirecTV. He seems to like it and I got a crazy deal on service.

    Good luck man,

    Well, I'm officially an employee of Direct TV. The hours are horrible. Pretty much night shift. So I have two weeks before training starts and I'm taking this time to see if I can do better. Tomorrow I am putting my application in at a furniture factory about 5 minutes from my place. Pay is good and the work sucks, I've done it for 4 years. But sometimes you gotta be responsible ... right sarge?

    Wish me luck on getting the crappy job.

    What kind of job was it? How old are you? Whats up with your appearance? Sorry about the questions, I guess it is just some stuff I have missed since I have not been here in a long while.

    Oh, and sorry about the job but it sounds like it is better for you to be out of there. I too would report him.
