I work at a restaurant, well i've worked at a restaurant for almost 2 years. I was offered my job by a family friend. He started working March 06' and I in June 06'. Basically, 3 months apart. Days and hours used to be great. But now because of the economy, nothings been too good. I got laid off of my Tuesdays & Thursdays and i was left with Weekends and compromising work days with my co-worker. At first he was sorta nice about it. Now he has this impression that he can tell me when and when not to work. He thinks he's my boss. Oh boy is he wrong. So i asked him for last Saturday, which I worked. And i asked for this Saturday(6 hours) but he gave me Friday(5 hours) yeah one hour less but one hour is a lot when you work at a restaurant. I have something to do this Friday and i asked for Saturday. So he told me he couldn't give me Saturday because he needed the money and his father was furious that i worked on a Saturday. Mind you, when i dont work on weekends he gets 3 days of work which is a total of 17 hours which gives him 119$ plus tips. What in the world does he do with that money? Actually, 2 weeks worth of that kind of money. Really, i survive on like freakin 70 to 80$ for 2 weeks. Yes, two freakin weeks!!! I'm 17 and i pay for my Verizon phone bill (90$) and part of the comcast bill (70$) and i'm going down the shore for vacation during my Senior week and that's 186$. He's a college student, but he doesn't pay for much. He also has a phone bill but he doesnt hav texting so it's barely anything to pay. And he pays for gas & food. Oh by the way, most of the time he carpools to college. I told him not to come in on Saturday because i'll be there. I have been looking for another job since i do have experience in a couple of fields, but it's just so hard to get a damn job. Do i have a point or am I wrong?
