So I woke up this morning, and lost my second job!
« on: 26 November 2011, 18:14 »
 Yup! I worked last night and Thursday night at the club I have been working at for the past 3 months almost, and I had a missed call from the boss asking me to get in touch. I rang and he said did I know what it was about to which I say no. "You have no idea?" he said, again I said no.

Well apparently someone complained about me to him (who happens to be the boss' mate) and I am instantly fired.

I wasn't told what I had said or who to, just that something had been said and that was that. Now don't get me wrong, I had bar banter whilst working and a lot of people give banter back but I never said anything that overstood the mark, it was always a light hearted affair. I have been trying to work out who it was and what I could of said but I just can't. The place wasn't even busy last night with the most part of 50 people (if that) in.

I never had a contract so I guess I can be let go whenever but I wasn't given any warnings or anything.

Bit sh!t really an especially not giving me the exact reason why.

it wasn't necessarily what you said to someone, it could have been what someone overheard you saying and became offended  :lipsrsealed:

Chalk it up as one of Lifes knocks, move on and dont let it get to you.

bar work is like that unfortunately mate, I got knocked down to glass collector when I was 18  as someone "thought" I was giving out free pints (they were only 50p a pint anyways so why would I bother) :rolleyes:

As Chuff said, don't dwell on it, just move on and get out there looking again

Yep don't dwell on it, most club owners or people who run them have no GCSE's or brains anyway and are incapable of thinking and they've proved that by failure to communicate, so no way should you let them bother you.
80% of your posts are total tripe, as they are mostly replies to sh1te posts created by the morons that, unfortunately this forum attracts.

bad news dude, as said before dont dwell on it doubt theres much you can do.

least you lasted longer than my mate, he got a job behind a bar, and they expected him to just remember the prices for drinks (didnt have a till will drinks on just a til were you punch in the price) anyway he couldnt remember them so just charged people what he was an average drinks price for what theyde bought. 3 hours later he was fired :D

Amen to that.  :grin:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

Thanks guys. Makes me feel better knowing what's been said.  :smiley:

Jay, I have my main job as a designer, the bar work was to help pay of loans quicker, but doubt I'll work in a bar again seeing as and I quote: "I won't be giving you any recommendations". What a dick.
