I hope it gets better for you!

I know what you mean, I also used to work in retail...I quit after 1 week! The boss lady was a real biotch, she would boss us around like we were slaves and for the pay I got, no thnx. I was dying to leave and I did. I was like 15 so I didn't need the job that bad.

I waitressed and bartended all through school, so I know how hard it is. I remember one time I busted my butt waiting on a table of 10 men who were having lunch with drinks. The bill was over $400 and they left me $20...

IMHO NOBODY is above common courtesy!!

How did you like Bartending? I took an introductory bartending class and loved it and I might do the 2 week course. I want to do that next because of how much you can make in one night.
