chefann said:1 day. It was through a temp agency, and even though it could have been a long-term assignment, they didn't keep me because of some silly reason (which I can't remember).
Nooooo...... silly. I think there was some issue about the person who I would be replacing not liking me. Which is stupid, because once they trained me and left, they wouldn't have to deal with me.hoosierchef said:Hum.....Did you dress like Carmen Miranda??

I'd get fired for eating all of the profits!chefkristin said:It was my very first job in a bakery- I got fired
I still don't know why. I think I was 15 or 16. I was there 3 months maybe.
Well then be careful that you don't eat all the profits at your new coffee shop!AJPratt said:I'd get fired for eating all of the profits!

Uhmmm... I already have a consultant who emails me the specials!!!
Unfortunatly I will be away from home for the first week for training. Sunday night at mom's in Portland, and then the next 4 nights at my cousin's house in Salem. I'm just staying at their houses because they live closer to where the actual training will be taking place. Less driving than if I stayed home on the coast.

Have they said anything about you leaving??? let the count down begin.... !!!
mommyhugz1978 said:Tree said:Have they said anything about you leaving??? let the count down begin.... !!!
Nope, and I don't really care either. I haven't gotten very close to anyone here as I am by myself all the time. I just see them when I come to work and when I leave. And soon to leave for the last time.

We will when I get back from training. I've been working this crummy job at night and sleeping during the day.
I honestly haven't called them yet. I'm going to bring them with me and make those calls while at moms or my cousins. I do need to get on them. Oh I had my show that Margaret gave me, I'm closing it on Sunday. Can you believe that I forgot the pizza dough and I was making the Aloha Pizza!!!! One of the guests went to the store and got some and I just went over my flip chart and all the new products that I brought with me. It is over $200 right now and one booking for May because she is the birth coach of one of the other guests and she is due in April
What are you doing up at this hour girl? I know I'm up because I'm at work.

The shortest job I've ever had was working for an inventory company. I only did one job and it lasted for three hours.
I was hired as a temporary worker to assist with inventory counting and tracking.
I only worked for three hours because I found my coworkers to be scary and the work environment made me uncomfortable.
The work environment was not ideal. We had to meet in a vacant parking lot in the middle of the night, which added to the discomfort and unease I felt working for the company.
No, I did not have any prior experience in inventory or similar work. This was my first and only job with an inventory company.
