I had enough today. I quit my job.

[OneForMe]

I had fucking enough.

Working for my family sucked.

being that your dad and fam are your boss's.

your co workers knowing your parents are bosses.

and having to take insults from clients.


THEY CAN TAKE THE 2000 i made a month and stick it up theirs




whenever i make a dumb mistake like. leaving the radio on or not putting the excact mileage on the gas receipt. co workers would so call "tell on" my family. and not only would i get shit as a son to dad deal, also as a boss to worker deal. coming home was a pain in the ass.


i worked way more then any asshole would.

i would go out my way and if a client had problems with their machine. i would go out on a saturday night at 11pm to fix it.


now i dont have worries, im having fun with life.

ill just be a spoil asshole and ask for allowence :boink:


i feel worry free.

now just a shitty job at the mall (if i can find one with todays economy)

and ill be good.

focusing on my highschool right now though :hs:




i quit when most people get laid off. but w.e


btw today was such a nice day at home everyone is happier this way

[90hatchie]

since its ur family im sure ur dad will let you come back when u cool down
2000 a month is quite a bit for someone in hs
i have a hard time breaking 800 a month and im almost 21

[HyperTek]

can i have your job?

[maple_player]

shit let me have your job. you are so lucky you have one man... just think of all the unemployed people out there. just count your blessings man. sorry to hear that, but that is how the world is. everything will not go your way, but that is life...

[OneForMe]

guys 2000 is alot for my age yea.

but working everyday 7 days a week for 12 hours a day (well realisticly 9 on school days)


no thanks. whats the point of having money when you dont enjoy it



and no. i retired everything. packed up all my stuff.

clear my salesreports, my clients invoices. signed them off and left.


i get along with my dad more this way

[HyperTek]

ic.. yeah that sucks about family owning businesses. they will have you work.. like tomarrow i have to fill in at my moms shop... she dont pay me though (i wouldnt ask for it), but its annoying because i started a job today and i was looking forward to having the weekend..


But yeah man, you couldnt have asked them for some time off? maybe ur weekends off and cut down ur hours?

[OneForMe]

i dont really get paid hourly.

its a commission job. Im a sales man (not like the guy that went on the kirby vaccum interview)

but i had my own van (chevy express work van) and distrubted our product to all the local mexican restaurants.)

and to be honest. i didnt like my job.

i rather work at a mall as a dummy behind a register.

interact with people.

(meet MILFS)

and chill like any other 18 year old out there

[maple_player]

well if that is the case that sucks man. well if your family is lookin for a guy please have them call me. I need to work. hope you can work it out with your family...

[BustedS13]

things i'm tired of:
"it's the economy, that's why i don't have a job"
"wah"

[OneForMe]

well if that is the case that sucks man. well if your family is lookin for a guy please have them call me. I need to work. hope you can work it out with your family...

if you lived in vegas and if your bilingual.

theres a spot.


btw anyone work at best buy ?
ha i need a refer eee to get more chances of getting a job

[90hatchie]

talk about a downgrade
ur gonna want ur old job back when u move out

[RiversideS13]

i think you are just not yet appreciate what you had, but i agree it is too much for for a High school kid. are you planning to go college?

[OneForMe]

yea. im planning on being a cop.

yea i always wanted to be a police officer.

since i was 8 years old. and my mind hasnt changed even after how i hate cops

[BOROSUN]

reminds me of that movie lonesome jim.

[cc4usmc]

ha i need a refer eee

http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g11/cc4usmc3/carrie_referee.jpg

[C. Senor]

woah ^ introduce me man. lol

seriously.

but yeah man. it's the thing where you're helping your family. especially if its your dad. i would like to think that i would put up with some incredible bullshit for my dad. but to each his own. hope you find a job. you gotta do what you gotta do.

[Slammed180]

I know this feeling.
I've worked for my Dads company for almost 6 years! It was hell when I was still living at home.
I would get in shit as an employee, and as a son. I hated it.
Eventually, I decided that moving out would give us some much needed space. Now we have a better appreciation for each other, and our work/personal lives are much better.

$2000 a month is pretty good when you're 18. You'll miss having that after working a shit job for a few months

[HyperTek]

i started work yesterday and go back monday -fri.. and today my mom slaps me with "i need you at the shop today".. hahah i was looking forward to my weekend too =(

[worangejuice]

this thread is hilarious...........

[drifterken]

i know how u feel i work for my family too.. knowing that ur parents are ur boss... but then again. with this bad economy u should consider keeping that job... GL just go drift and take it all away... :hsdance:

[NeonDan]

dude.....you are soooooo gonna regret that day for the rest of your life. You'll see.

[ronmcdon]

I've actually gone through something similar before.
Worked for my mom's company (and still do, albeit very much part-time).
In most cases, the parent employer finds it difficult to professionally consolidate their personal and professional relationship.
You either get parents that spoil their kids or those that treat them like crap.
Usually those that don't treat their kids well don't manage their personnel well either.

I think in situations where you work for family or friends,
you really need to sit down and talk about where to draw boundaries.
sounds like it would be implicit, but it really is not.
this is something where you need to get your family & yourself to agree to come to terms with rules and other stuff beforehand.

For example, (most obvious in OP's case), you need to tell them that work and personal affairs should always be kept separate.
At home, it personal time. You don't need to talk about work.
At work, everyone needs to keep professional demeanor.
You need to address your boss as your boss, not your father.
Your boss needs to treat you professionally as an employee.

You and your boss need to come in to terms as far as the definition of your job goes, its clear expectations, and it's limitations.
Put it in writing, and email him/her a copy.
If you act like you respect yourself and are reasonable, your superiors will take you more seriously.
If some things aren't clearly defined and mutually acknowledged, misunderstandings will surely occur.

Ultimately though, I think the job you have is good practice for working in the real world.
Asshole superiors are really more the rule than the exception.
If you can deal with family, that should prepare you somewhat for other obstacles.

[iwishiwas-all*]

you quit a 2k a month job and u havnt graduated highschool yet. you are banking for a 18 yr old lol.
good luck working at McDonalds

[SlideWell]

i hope u have a good 2nd plan for a job. i put up with so much shit at my work. i was ready to quit yesterday, instead, thinking maturely about it, i decided to just not converse with other people at work and stay in my bubble and do my job.

[ronmcdon]

well, you have to take into consideration he's still living at the parents house,
and mentions something about getting an allowance.

not judging anyone (hey id take advantage if i could too, lol),
but not exactly the same situation some of us are in.

[jskateborders]

yea, since the economys down and jobs are slim, alot of employers are taking advantage and making workplaces like slave camps, cause they know people wont quit. Its fucked up

[deolio]

i work for my parents. it's pretty chill since i'm the "head" of my department and my parents rarely need to interact with me, but i can understand how it could get frustrating.

[blasting_speed]

can i have your job?

That's what i was going to ask.

[SimpleS14]

guys 2000 is alot for my age yea.

but working everyday 7 days a week for 12 hours a day (well realisticly 9 on school days)


no thanks. whats the point of having money when you dont enjoy it




Save it, so you can enjoy it later. You never know what will happen in the future and it would be really nice to take a vacation in between H.S. and college.

[jmd8590]

I was in the same situation. I was working for my parents construction company and constantly being "told on" whenever I made any small mistake. When you work for your parents, their other employees will always think your getting special treatment. Good money: yes, good environment: no.

[GluedMyNuts]

You really need to suck it up. Life is hard and who wants to take s*** from anyone anyways? You need to learn to value your job and get over it. I get s*** from a lot of people, but why should I give a crap if they are retarded. I just ignore and carry on. And yes, working with fam is hard, but with 2k a month, go get some super duper ear plugs.

[ESmorz]

For 2k a month I would work in a fucking diamond mine. Get over yourself.

[mrmephistopheles]

focusing on my highschool right now though


on my highschool right now


my highschool right


highschool


highschool



highschool



:trogdor::trogdor::goyou::trogdor::trogdor:

[murda-c]

High school really doesn't require that much attention.

But yeah my parents don't suck and I know how to tell them when they are doing shit wrong.

YOu should have just not made so many mistakes, and told your dad to stop being a tool.

I don't understand why people have so much trouble telling their parents what they need to do.

[ronmcdon]

yeah high school isn't difficult to study, but it is a time consuming endeavor.
If he's planning to be a cop, good chance he's not cramming to get into harvard either.
basically it's 7 hrs of your day, 5 days a week down the shitter.

dropping out of hs was one of the best decisions I made in my life.
wouldn't recommend that to the OP if he plans to be a police-man though.

[BustedS13]

yeah high school isn't difficult to study, but it is a time consuming endeavor.

uh. the vast majority of america works 8 or more hours a day?

[ESmorz]

uh. the vast majority of america works 8 or more hours a day?

Then it's a good thing he wasn't talking about work.

:D

[ronmcdon]

Idk, I'm just basing that 7hr grind on my personal hs experience.
school for me started at 8, and ends at 3 ish, M-F.

If I had to work an additional 8 hr work shift on top of that, I know I would hate it.

then again this was many years ago.
i admit i have no idea what schedule hs kids these days work with.
it's hard to keep up with modern times.

[OneForMe]

uhm well i go to school from 8 to 10 and chill. relax and go back to take college courses at 6pm to 8

[BoostSlideWayz]

Ehh,,, im tired of ppl getting mad at others if they quit there job. If you work somewhere you dont like then dont work there. thats my felosiphy. If your parents care for your enough theyll help you out. its not like your going to end up homeless.

[90hatchie]

yea high school dosnt require much work
i barely did any of my school work and still got decent grades and graduated......
i miss high school so much fun

[ronmcdon]

OP - If you plan to be a cop, I doubt you need college for practical purposes. Might want to look into that. not much point in studying for something you don't need.

I thought college was a lot more fun. yeah, you had to study more. however, college was a lot more flexible. you could schedule your classes on Tue, Wed, Thur only, so you get 4-day weekends. you don't have to wake up early. you can also do just night classes, so that you can fit in a regular 9-5 day job. when I transferred to a 4-yr college, I could get by just attending the first day of class, midterms, & finals.

college gives you a lot more freedom than hs. hs is only good for shooting the shit, but even then you can do that pretty much anywhere else.

[lucky7]

i work for my parents also and it can be a severe nightmare. i also still live at home with them, so when i get home, i go to my room and close the fucking door. :D

but my dad and i dont get along too well to begin with, and if we're together for more than like 4 hours it can get a little stressful. but i dont know of another place that will pay me what i make now, with hours that work around my school schedule. otherwise i'd work somewhere else without a doubt.

[Flicktitty]

dude i feel your pain.

working for your parents sucks.

cause even when your not "working" you don't feel at home.

shit sucks.

[S14Josh]

I've always felt that if you don't enjoy what you're doing, then don't do it. Who cares if the money is good. If you are miserable as a person then why the fuck are you wasting your time?

You should work to live, not live to work.

I haven't had a "regular" 9 to 5 in the past 2 years. I quit my job as a service valet at a bmw dealership and decided to do what I enjoyed, which is filming. Granted I'm still getting my foot in the door, but I make more now in a week than I did in 2 months as a service valet. But this wasn't until recently. For the first year 1/2 I was living off $100 every month, or sometimes every 2 months. It sucked because I never had money to do anything fun, or to even get me gas sometimes, but at the same time I was never stressed, and just genuinely a happier person. I'll never go back to a regular job again, ever.

FUCK being stressed out every day, and FUCK hating my job, that shit takes it's toll after a while.


I would have quit also if I was in the same position. I'd take being happy with little money over making good money and being stressed out any day.

[slutz4]

I work for my parents also, I know how it is. There are downsides as well as benefits for sure. It would probably be alot better for you if you werent living at home with them. Seems like good money for your age though.

[lucky7]

yup. it would be more stress free for me if i didnt live with them. :D
oh well. im in school now, so i have plans on getting a job and my own place someday. lol, its the first step i suppose. lol.

but i wouldnt go back to HS if someone paid me.

[bigboto_boy]

u from vegas? lol i need a job haha and im in highschool to lmao

[vr4gasmtt]

wow 2k a month, thats pretty decent. I know how shitty work can be espeically when people are giving you shit when they shouldn't/ have no reason too.

I'm going to quit my job this week. I've simple had enough up the bullshit..

seen your vids on vegasdrift


damn bro let me intern for you as an up and coming photographer (would like to do videography) except i have no cam :goyou:

[SochBAT]

If you need to "focus" on HighSchool, you fucking fail at life.

Done and Done.

[!Zar!]

The OP is spoiled and is a quitter.

The OP's parents obviously make a good amount of money to be able to pay their son so well.

Of course you're going to get in trouble with your parents worse than the other employees. Why? Because they want to see you succeed. They could care less about the other employees as long as they are doing their job.

Don't run away from your problems.

Be a man and face them.

I know for a fact that I've gone through worse shit for a job and made less than you.

Only difference is I wasn't a bitch and ran away from it.

If you need to, "focus" on high school, then you need help.

I know many people who were too busy fucking and getting high to go to class and they STILL graduated.

[vr4gasmtt]
