Yay!! (I think...)
« on: June 05, 2008, 10:20:40 AM »
Well, after a couple weeks I finally got my old job back at Taco Time.  Not the greatest place I could work at, but I haven't had anyone else return to me about my job offers....

So now I can work in the grease-intensive, meat-grinding, fast food job...............................



Remind me why I wanted a job again??

;)

Well, at least it's something for now.  If you want to, try to keep looking for something better.  Do you work full time there?

Yeah it never hurts to have something while you're looking for something else. i worked at McDonald's for 5 years so I know where you're coming from.

When I was 16, I worked at McDonalds for about 3 days before I got recruited to work at a Popeyes for more pay.... I left the grill in the middle of the rush.

Easier to look for a better job when you are in a job. Plus think about all the cool things you can buy when you get that wage packet.

No, very few employees work full time there because there isn't a big enough customer demand/they probably don't want to pay someone full time.  (I think).  They don't really say though.  I'll probably get around 25-30 hours a week though. 

Yes, I'm working till I either:

A.  Find a better full time job
B.  Go back to college. 

I'm also looking for another part-time job.

EXACTLY.  There are folks in the world who would kill for the opportunity to earn an honest dollar.  Congrats on landing a gig, Tim.

Most everyone has had this type of job or a few of them at some point.  One of my first jobs was working in a small restaurant.  I cleaned tables and washed dishes.  Washing dishes for 8 hours straight makes you never afraid to clean up after a meal at home - ever again.

I'm not complaining, its not the best job in the world no, but its a job and I need the money.  I'm also getting interviewed by Fred Meyer, for a job, on Saturday.  So yea, not too bad.

Yeah I was a 'closer' at McDonald's for awhile. Washing every utensil and piece of equipment after a busy mcDonald's day toughened me up.

I used to work at a meat cutting shop, I had to clean up the equipment and the shop after the meat cutters had been working. Not the greatest work, but it was my first job.
