Truthfully, it doesn't matter to any of us why he was fired (unless he was spitting in the burgers and selling them to us). There may be more to the story, but it's none of our business. I think a lot of the animosity shown toward the little guy in this thread is a result of his constant showing off his money, video games, car parts, etc. He came across as pen 15y, and it annoyed a lot of people (myself included). He's gotten his comeuppance, and hopefully he'll learn from it.

But seriously, the next time I see "paided" he'll be "banneded" ;)

Thanks thunderchicken sorry i can't spell much right at times or most of the time.

Well the Co Owner tried to give me my job back 2 times the other day and i said no and they own sonics in Oklahoma and Florida and other places to so even if you don't live in my town these guys still have a say in what goes on. I fell that i should of got fired a long time ago insted of this week. But i work to hard to quit my job so i had to get fired in order to move on and find or seek a better job.

LOL It's all good man, if this is the impetus for you getting a better job, you'll look back and be thankful that it happened this way. I do hope you find someplace that will appreciate your dedication more than your old Sonic manager ever did.

It's just that...I've been on the outside looking in at this thread (remaining Switzerland) and I'm more confused now than when I put cement all over the dog. That was a genuine "WTF?!" moment.

I worked there 3 years if they where going to fire me they should of done it a long time ago and nothing i did in the last week was really that bad and i still worked 65 hours last week.

But i got all the cougar XR7 parts paided for i just need to pay the labor on the build so a few more weeks and maybe $2000 more and it should be running and looking like new.

Also i still owe the bank for the 88 T-bird so i can't go more than a week or so without a job i think i only owe about $3,000 and i took out a $4,000 loan on it but i hope i get a job again that i can pay it off ASAP.

The way i see it the sonic i worked at was less than a mile form my house and i have lived on this part of town for 15+ years and that sonic has only been open for 5 years. So it felt like getting kicked out my house since i lived up there and i knew everyone by name or at their least car or cars.

I was about 8mins early to work took one order got called over by my boss and fired and he did not even fill out my 3rd Write up or even talk anything out which after 3 years working 6 days a week most of the time and 40-80+ hours a week i felt that he could of at least talk it out.

He's gonna ban your ass if you don't stop mangling the English language.  It is "pay", "paid", "paid" (present, past, past participle).  No such word as "paided" any more than "wented", "renteded", "washeded", "spelleded", or "wisheded".

In any case, good luck with the finances, and remember to work smarter, not just harder.

english does not matter anymore.  Ubonics or spanish along with stupidity has become the standardized sludge we muddle through now a days.


Good luck on the thingamajob hunt.  Finding a job will be the hardest work you will ever do and requires a ton of overtime on your part.

I beg to differ! ;)

Carpimp, I'm going to give you some advice. Go download Mozilla Firefox (version 3.0 is pretty awesome) and install the English Dictionary Addon (I assume you would be using the US version. I stick with good old UK English, because it's.......... actually a language. ;) Canadian English gives me the willies too, so I'm not being racist.). Just keep an eye on your post before you hit submit. If you've spelled it wrong, right-click on the word and it will give you suggestions. You'll learn to spell this way, and in the mean time the rest of us can keep our hair on our head. :hick:

Great advice - that's one of my favorite features of Mozilla. Most of the kids these days grow up speaking "text-speak" on their little internet games, I have to yell at my kids when I am IMing them from work "speak English  it!!!!" Anyway, Firefox can ensure that your internet posts are spelled correctly (though it won't fix misuse of words) & you will also learn to spell correctly over time. I still have issues spelling certain words so I love it.
