I worked at a well known womens accessory store in the mall that rhymed with Shmasterthoughts. They didn’t want to pay me the extra 40 hours I worked at another store.

Worked at Garden Ridge in HS. Had a customer pissy because it took me "too long" to move a patio set to their car. I had to hand carry 115 lbs. She called me a slur; the manager decided to dress ME down. I was leaving for the Navy in a week, so my departure was… colorful. — I. Givenofucks (@nofuckusgivicus) April 14, 2022 19. I had a 23 yr old receptionist stand up in the middle of the work day and yell “This is the most toxic environment I have ever been in.” and left. Smartest person in the company.

A week before said time, my boss said he wasn’t giving it to me cuz they were short bartenders (they all quit). I told him it’s ironic, because they were about to be short another and I didn’t return. — Ulisses Gonsalves (@the_ulisses_gon) April 14, 2022 21. I was making 5 an hour working in the back of a local ice cream shop. Our boss kept talking about our bonuses all week. When the time came, it was a free ice cream bar. One of the girls threw it at the wall full force so it stuck, then walked out. I was in awe of her greatness. — D (@equinoxf0x) April 14, 2022 22. As a teenager, I worked in a downtown cafeteria.
