Really Julie? Did you hate it hear as well? :lol: I am not sure if it is the school or just Augusta.

Lol, you will be at Arizona State. xD I used to always put in the wrong url to the school and get yours because of the ASU name. xD

Keyori 05-25-2010 07:13 PM

Vye: That totally sucks D:

I've been working $7.25 jobs during the school year. I need at least $10 during the summer to cover my living expenses during the year since the rest of my work is crap. My summer job last year paid over $17 an hour (:drool:) so expecting that and then getting a call like "Sorry, you might not have a job at all, we'll call you when we know something" kinda stresses me out D:

Suona: Heck yeah! xD

Kierys 05-25-2010 07:14 PM

I think I'm just now making about 10 an hour. I've been at this job for almost three years. But it's entry level, easy stuff. Just stressful on an emotional level. I hate customer service.

Julie Apathetic 05-25-2010 07:14 PM

no i was just born and raised in augusta even though im still not out of high school but still i loved it there

Suona 05-25-2010 07:16 PM

@ Keyori - Sweeeet! 8D;;

Seiki Nova 05-25-2010 07:17 PM

Winter, did you always end up at the http://asu.edu website? XD

Winterwolfgoddess 05-25-2010 07:17 PM

Julie- Lol, I was born on Fort Gordon and raised in augusta. I just hate it here and always have. :/ Maybe it is just where I live. :lol:
I am thankful for the magnet schools here though. Saved me from going to a certain horrible high school here. xD

Seiki- Yup! I put in asu instead of aug. xD

Keyori 05-25-2010 07:17 PM

Customer service = :headdesk:

I worked a help desk for IT... so frustrating.

The wage was better than food service though, so I dealt with it :/

Hey everyone, how is everybody? I would use my power hour, but I am at the library on my lappy. :S

ClockReject 05-25-2010 07:18 PM

Good Afternoon Everyone :]

KidK Mirai 05-25-2010 07:18 PM

@Vye That's just plain ridiculous. o.o Also a violation of contract, if there was anything written down (or even if not) saying you'd both get $15/hour. If the client had wanted to complain about you being a girl, they could've done it before you did all that work!

Winterwolfgoddess 05-25-2010 07:20 PM

Plus that would being sexist and discriminating. xD He could get in trouble for that. xD

Julie Apathetic 05-25-2010 07:21 PM

haha i think i know just what you are talking about i actually lived and went to school across the river but spent all my time in augusta like church and shopping etc.

KidK Mirai 05-25-2010 07:21 PM

Yeah that kind of attitude is so annoying. As if a girl/woman automatically can't do certain work.

ClockReject 05-25-2010 07:21 PM

How is everyone?

Vye 05-25-2010 07:21 PM

@Suona: Aww thanks. :) My friend Karayna did it. She's awesome!

@Kierys: Lol, that would have been interesting. xD I never met someone so sexist since my carpentry teacher! But he really pissed me off. My Dad tried to prove a point to him, but the guy said that he would call the police if my Dad continued to argue with him.

@Keyori: $17/hr? LUCKY. But that completely sucks about $7.25/hr. I use to get that when I worked at Tim Hortons 3 years ago. Gah. It was ridiculous! I also hate costumer service....some people have their heads so far up their behind it's sickening.

@KidK Mirai: Agreed. That's one of the things my dad tried to argue. I mean I worked for the guy for over three days and he couldn't of said it before hand?

Seiki Nova 05-25-2010 07:22 PM

Winter, it seems like it would be an easy mistake to make :yes:

awe, my power hour ended : (

Winterwolfgoddess 05-25-2010 07:24 PM

Julie- Lol, yeah. Augusta has the better places to shop. And our mall just keeps getting bigger and better. xD

Seiki- lol yeah. xD I finally got used to it though xD

KidK Mirai 05-25-2010 07:25 PM

@Vye Exactly! What a creep. Also I doubt your dad would be letting you work on jobs like that if you weren't up to it. That's just so messed up.

Julie Apathetic 05-25-2010 07:25 PM

i soo wish i was back there even though i do remember hating it while i was there

Suona 05-25-2010 07:26 PM

I still dont understand the professional items. Oi.

@ Vye - Ooh. Very sweet.

Seiki Nova 05-25-2010 07:27 PM

I feel like taking a nap DX But I don't want to miss out on participating now while I have time to do so.

Vye 05-25-2010 07:27 PM

@KidK Mirai: Exactly. :)

@Suona: Don't worry I don't either.

Keyori 05-25-2010 07:27 PM

Vye: I was shocked too xD

But, it was a legitimate internship for my field, so the pay was actually just about right for the industry.

And not having those wages when I was told two months ago that I would have been working by now is kinda irritating, to say the least D:

Winterwolfgoddess 05-25-2010 07:28 PM

Julie- Lol, well you must have friends back here you miss right?
I do not know if I will miss it. If I had to leave my dogs, hell yeah.
xD When we go on vacation I whine after the first day because I want them xD
