how much do they pay?
10 cents above minimum wage. But there's medical and dental insurance, which I really need. you shouldve thought of this before you accepted the job eh?
I've been unemployed for over a month. Ill take whatever I can get.

Not too bad, seems like it would be a decent place to work, plus the medical and dental insurance is a pretty big plus.
I'd take it.
I need a new job, I work at Steve and Barry's, but they are bankrupted and are closing 100+ stores soon, which is probably going to leave me without a job.
fuck you for reminding me.
but it's all good.

No response will top this one. It's genuine and absolutely fucking true. Nice job sir. I award you points and God will indeed have mercy on your soul.

I don't blame the guy for kinda missing that part, I mean it sucks but when you're interviewing you're kinda nervous and forget stuff like that. I made the bad mistake not to ask what the hours were going to be for the job I start on Monday and after I did their dumb drug test and all the background checks AND turned down another job I found out the hours are HORRIBLE. Consider me really pissed but I need the job at this point.

My first day was pretty dull. The people and managers were nice and its a fairly simple job but its boring as all hell. Im getting 37 hours this week (very good) and 60 cents above minimum wage (not that great, but better than I expected). p.s. where the eff is el mirage?

I had an ex girlfriend who worked at hollister. She didn't like it much either.

I did that years back when a Hollister opened up at the mall in my home town, pants the male mannequin and sharked the female mannequin, then i got trespassed from the mall for a year.

How do you get trespassed from something? And I did that, but I didn't get banned or anything.......

Simple, they had a cop take down my info and posted up my pic at the security office in the mall, and if was in the mall anytime in that year, i was to be arrested. It only happened because of the fact that my home town didn't have shit to do that even the cops and such were bored to the point that they mess with you for nuthin.

What I meant was you used the wrong word. You can't "be trespassed." Trespass is a verb.

Nope, but I can see how it could read that way. I meant, that with these hours I would probably be out with my friends etc., instead of having time for friends and ap. Glad we could clear that up :)
