ok man, you’re 16. I’ve worked food before and it’s not fun. I had worked at our local HyVee for 7 months and had asked for a raise like 3 times, but nothing. So I got a job designing websites as a student at the university. I gave a two weeks notice at this job, but the last day I just didn’t feel like going so I called in sick and went shopping instead. My manager was actually a real arsehole but he liked me and totally believed me that I was sick. i did leave on good terms though, even if i lied at the very end. as long as they don’t see thru it, i wasn’t going to care. so don’t burn bridges in the future, you never know when you might need a good reference. ---

Hehe, Josh, you crazy American. You just have to stand for the bs while you work there. I know I came in a bit late in this convo, but still, suck it up man.😛 ---

Yeah the sucking has already taken place Max. Wow that was a bad sentence. pinx, your totally right about the burning bridges. Now I don’t have a reference and have to start over at minimum wage. SIGH ---

In future, should you ever be in a spot where you _believe_ your work conditions aren’t on the up&up … there is allways room for taking steps where your rights and safety are protected … (walking out is not one of them) …and you retain the backing of the labor commission wherever you live. Every state has legislation/agency that protects workers (more so for minors) …read up on the rules and know what you’re talking about including what are the acceptable actions/recourse for you to take before making a stand. ---

You know what? You have design skills… I suggest you start using them, and forget about ever working at a burger joint. Look at me, I got a pretty sweet job based on skills I started getting last december. ---
