I AM SO PISSED OFF!!!
I can live without my money, but I am very upset at something.
Argos, which is a sort of semi-retail semi-catalogue sort of shop over here are currently doing a Gamecube, Memmory Card, and free game all for £78.99.
That's less than the Gamecube. Considerabley less. Our shop is still selling them for the retail price of £129.99
So, you see my problem here. The deal ends April 1st, and I won't be paid for AAAAAAAAAAges. Is this some plan to stop me price-matching in my store? I think that, with the £30-back voucher the GBA-SP comes with, it's certainly worth grabbing a Gamecube for £50.
:(
Maybe I could politley ask my boss...

Christ on a whole wheat cracker, Lex, you're still (technically) a teenager (I think), you're not getting paid, and, even when they are paying you, they're still trying to ram a hot sweaty corporate cock up your ass. Just start with the petty larceny, already. If these people are half as inept as you've made them out to be, they won't notice the missing inventory.
I mean, is this some sort of attack of conscience? What is with the kids these days? No priorities!

Gross what?
Gross Misconduct. Apparently putting down a GBA SP downstairs so I can pick it up at the end of the day is Gross Misconduct. Don't get me wrong; if they let me go a horrible, horrible legal battle will ensue; I don't particularly want the moeny in that scenario; but by god I'll ruin the Game name.
WHOOA!

For one thing, the rational thing, you can't possibly sue them, since they have like actual lawyers and income and stuff.
For another--and I apologize if it offends you--you've been such a giant pussy to this point that I'm virtually certain you won't do anything. They'll say, "we're firing you. No, of course you don't get any of your money. You should feel lucky we don't press charges," and you will bitch and moan to us, instead of going postal on them with a Garden Weasel.
No, what's happened here is that your immediate boss has said to <i>his</i> boss something like "Lex has been bugging me for months about the pay we haven't been giving him." And <i>his</i> boss said, "Well, find--or make up--him doing something wrong, and fire his ass. Whiny pussies who let us abuse them without pay for six months are a dime a dozen."
Look, you're not going to get either money or a job out of this. They want gross misconduct? <b>GIVE</b> them gross misconduct. It begins with a can of accelerant and a match.
