i'm in the same position lmao, i'm taking a completion course this summer from 8am-11:30am and i thought i could handle everything, but ended up getting 2-3 hrs of sleep per day during the first week of school so i told chantal & she restricted my shifts to only fridays&saturdays until i finish school. then back to fuckin regular school in september
at the moment, minumum wage + a pool tip avg of about 2 to 3 dollars (depending on our sales), makes out to about 12-13/hr

I think she will be okay if you work on sat and sunday morning when you go back to school in sept... I was like that for 2 years, no big deals...
My summer school started from 7am to 2pm... then went over to work after... I was totally beaten for a week like this. Ridiculous it was like torture -_-
Oh btw, is Jesse and that tall African guy still working there?

i know that feel hahah, everything feels like a dream 'cause you get so deprived of sleep
i've never seen an African guy before so i'm assuming he's gone, but i think Jesse still works here 'cause his name's on the employee list. i've never met him though so i don't know what he looks like lol

Ahh receiver... same thing as "kitchen helper"
Trust me, there is a morning hobart lol... on the weekends the kitchen always have a morning hobart and receiver..
on the weekdays, there is only one person doing both i guess... unless summer, they add another person to help out.

When they say clean, let's say I got into a car accident under $1000 or car accidents in general but no tickets, does that define clean?

Anyone got any hookups for my younger bro?

He's turning 19 soon, but hasn't been able to get a job because he has no experience. Something very entry level..

Milestones was retarded, I got hired on as a cook because of my experience. Did prep and brunch cook some night shifts.

During a night shift we started talking about wages, which we shouldn't have been lol, well I blurted out that I got hired at $15 and everyone was shocked. I found out I was one of the highest paid. One of the guys who worked there for 4-5 years or something said he was getting paid the same lol. He asked for a raise and didn't get it.

I felt bad for the guy and told him to fucking apply at the keg. Now hes working there and getting paid way more lol and easier work.

Well I quit because the company licked balls, mainly the managing staff. Worked me like a horse just because I could do it. For example during brunch shifts they would purposely short staff so I had to work 2 stations at the same time while the GM stands in the front and yells at me for being 2 minutes over.

Long story short, go find a better job than milestones lol

Hey, sorry for bumping the thread, but I have an upcoming interview to Sportchek, and was wondering the types of questions that would be asked in the interview. I know the usual will be asked(ie, strengths/weaknesses, etc..). TIA!

probably something like how would you deal with a displeased customer or have you had to deal with any before.
