    NEW JOB!!!

    Just wanted to share my awesome news with someone.... Ok, so, last year I worked at a game store (gametraders) and was fired for asking for my birthday off (first day off in my year there), so that sucked, happy birthday to me!! Anyway, since then I have completed a business cert 3 qualification witch seemed to do nothing for my job prospects...... UNTILL NOW. Randomly I get an email from a company about a job position thats available... usually these types of emails are not legit but I did my research on said company and turns out it's all legit. 3 weeks of training from home for $500 bucks a week, followed by fulltime employment at an office of my choosing with a guaranteed pay of $1200 a week with full dental, medical, sick pay, holiday pay e.t.c. So my job title is now Finance specialist.... sounds fancy that is all.

    They cant fire you for requesting a day off. My guess is you asked, they said no, so you called in sick or somethin lol. But thats fked up yo. Good luck with your job.

    Another round of beer for everyone and put it on the OP's tab!

    It wasn't as simple as being fired for asking for the day off but that is what caused the boss to be a **** about anything and everything. If I explained it all this would be an extremely long post.
