TripodMillenium: It just dawned on me more....
I'm just a 2nd gen. US natural... My grandparents ((at least on my dad's side... I have not been told much about my mom's side)) immigrated here....
I'd say "living the American Dream" in Polish if gramps had taught me more than "Thank you Mr."....
((at my asking lol))
Which also lends to a positive... At least you're not sitting around hearing stupid Hawaiian jokes all the time....
I swear... I have tuned out the dumb Pollack jokes and insist on only remembering the joke with the "Oh, my name's Tanto Kawalski." punchline...
*wishes his Ritalin hadn't stopped working on him a year ago, puts tape over his mouth, and drags himself out of the thread to quit spamming* lol

I'm only a 3rd generation on both sides.
On that note, I got paid today! Saweet! I went in the back to my boss all "SHOW ME THE MONAY!" and she laughed. So yah, first pay check ever. I'm sooooo proud! And yesterday, I was all by myself in photo. No one else on last night knew anything. And the machine broke twice, and I fixed it! Didn't even call anyone! I also had to re-enter like, 10 envelopes because of the computer down time on Wednesday.

Awesome job dude! You should be very proud. There is nothing like doing a job and doing it well regardless of what it is. No go out and spend your money on something that you really want!

That will be a nice thing to do for your family, but don't spend your check all in one place. I know your mother will appreciate your thoughtfulness.

It got paid a fair amount, it's not all being spent. I'm taking them to Sweet Tomatoes, which is a most excellent salad bar buffet. you pay like, 8 bucks, and get all the salad, bread, pasta, soup, dessert, and soda you want. Thanks for yer advice and all, but I didn't plan on spending it all. But like I said, a lot of this check has to go to new clothes. The shirts fit fine everywhere else but my shoulders. I mean, people say broad shoulders are attractive and junk, but hey, because of them I need new shirts

Yup, it's true. Broad shoulders are pretty attractive. But... not usually as attractive as someone hard-working and proud of his/her work.
Good job!- jonb,
I didn't know Kawasaki also made replicas of feudal Japanese weaponry. You are such a pollack. LOL (Sorry, you set yourself up for that one.)Originally posted by TripodMillenium@May 27 2005, 01:56 AM

I got yelled at in front of a customer Sunday night! So like, here's the story. Fallyn got sick, so she left. The put me up front, and Sarah in cosmetics, where Fallyn works. So like, my manager was all "What do I do about pictures?" So like, I was all "Just don't take any one hour." So like, 5 minutes later, he's all "Tell anyone that comes to photo that it's shut down instead of calling me." What the fuck? It's a service we offer! So like, I did what he said.
That happened at about 8:30. Then like, people would come in to get their pictures, so I called him over. And he had the fuckin nerve to be all "Sorry, it's shut down, you can't pick up photos." Yah like, I'm sorry, but pick ups have nothing to do with them achines. He just didn't wanna be bothered. People were getting mad, and they like, totally had the right to be, yah? Especially the people who dropped off their film for one hour processing! There's a reason they wanted it one hour, yah?
So like, at 10:15-10:20, Sarah closed cosmetics, and took over the front so I could like, shut down the machines in photo. I started shutting down the machines, and these two chicks and one dude came to get their photos. Well, the photos of Rachel, one of the girls. I got them for her, since I was there and junk. She looked through them (I always let them) and like, there were some that didn't come out because the head photo specialist puts the scanner on auto. I was taught to put it on semi so like, I could choose not to print bad pictures, thus no returns.
So I was all "Rachel, if you don't want those, I can call a manager and you can get them taken off of the price." She was all "Is the black guy here tonight?" "Yah, but like, so is Justin." I called a code 5 to photo, and fuckin luck had it with Whitfield. He fuckin yelled at me, right in front of them! "I TOLD YOU PHOTO WAS SHUT DOWN! WHY THE HELL WERE YOU IN HERE?!" I was all "I was shutting down the machines, they wanted their pictures, they had one hour processing." So, Rachel pulled me aside, like, almost crying because she was upset I got in trouble. I told her not to worry.
So, I get to work yesterday, and I told Ramraj. He took Whitfield into the back for like, half an hour! Ramraj said I was in the right, though like, next time, I shouldn't disobey. And he commended me on how I told him the sitch, and that it was good I bit my tongue. He told me now Whitfield has to train on the printer. So like, about half an hour after they got out, Whitfield appologized to me. But only claimed 50%. I said "ok" we shook hands. Like, I knew it wouldn't get any better, so I was all "whatev."
So yesterday, Lenny and I were training him. Other than that, nothing else eventful. I know how much you guys love hearin about my job
