I don't think there's any issue with disliking weed/choosing not to partake. But lecturing people is lame. Chances are, if someone needs to cut back, they'll know it. Whether or not they do anything about it is ultimately entirely upon them. That said I need to cut down severely! Living in a...

I don't care too much. like, seriously, who cares. I saw my housemate naked when he was high and didn't realise I was home (or the plumbers hahaha). he's hung!

you'd only be 18 tops so you'd be able to go for office junior positions without experience as long as you can write a decent resume and demonstrate relative proficiency with ms office etc

My job is cool. We arrange all our shift swaps etc amongst ourselves. Of course, then if it's a last minute emergency thing and you can't find someone, you're screwed. But it doesn't happen too often.

hahaha respect.

oh okay. because you know more about how my store works than i do. forgive me for my ignorance. he is rostered on for specific shifts. one of those coincides with my shift. he does not do the roster and he only owns 5% of the store. his ownership is a recent acquisition; his habit of conducting...

i do cope wth the few tricky ones! without resorting to kicking them out, by the way and before you give me some condescending shit i have worked hospitality as well. i certainly don't profess to be perfect and customers irritate the shit out of me sometimes. that doesn't make me bad at my job...

yeah, it's great alienating customers like that. like okay fair enough if they're causing a genuine problem or harassing/abusing staff. but dude, bitching about the queue? big fucking deal. edit: okay i just reread your post, out of interest, how exactly were they harassing your coworker...

umm. we don't have managers per se; our 'managers' own a percentage of the store so they are the same thing. so yes he is obligated to 'help out' - btw i don't think it's called 'helping out' when you're ROSTERED ON FOR A SHIFT. particularly when it's just the two of us. so basically you have...

pretty much, i had a long night.

just further on this, not that every customer does this, but we get a pretty significant amount of customers who do shit like take movies out for well long enough to watch them and then come back and say 'no, it doesn't work, i already watched half of it, i want a different movie'. not once, but...

yeah good luck implementing that mate. more a rule for one of the owners: christ, when there's a line/40 million returns/etc, DON'T HAVE 40 MINUTE CONVERSATIONS WITH CUSTOMERS. and if you're having a conversation and someone's waiting to be served and i'm serving someone else/returning etc...

errr. I don't know what type of video store this person works for. but there's no possible way you can clean every dvd that comes in and out of the store! you can clean smudges, dust etc reasonably easily but it would still take up waaaaay too much time to do it with every dvd. as for scratches...

not customers in the sense of retail but... fuck, unless it's the only fucking toilet you have in the building, NO A FUCKING RUNNING CISTERN IS NOT SUUUUUUCH AN EMERGENCY, YOU JUST HAVE TO COME WITHIN THE HOUR. especially not when it's pissing down rain statewide. mcuntsicles.

Yeah fucking hell, I earn like $380 a week after tax atm!

It's easy to get office work, I recommend temping to get experience if you need it, then apply for full time work. tcc (the company connection), recruitment edge and recruitment solutions are all pretty good. I've temped with all of them and got my current job through RS IF ANYONE HERE TEMPS...

Yeah. But it's not what I expected of myself. I certainly didn't expect that I'd drop out of uni, especially considering it was my 'life long dream' to do Law and I fell into it by mistake. I dunno, I feel like I ought to have achieved something in the time since I left school, and I've...

Pffft, I always assumed that I would have it all sorted by 25. And that I would own a house. I turn 20 next month, I just moved back in with my parents after a disastrous year out of home and I still have no sense of responsibility or committment to anything. That could all change, maybe I'll be...
