Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'm looking for a part time, day time job. 3 days out of the week is all I'm looking for really. I'm a little picky as it will be a second job, and I don't NEED the income. I don't mind dealing with customers. I've worked in the restaurant business and that is it. I'm a Manager/ Supervisor at the Pizza Shop I work at now. I learn things quickly. I know my way around a computer basically and have typing skills. I can't diagnose problems, but I feel I have basic knowledge with word, excell, and all of that. If anyone knows of anything that'd be great. Thanks.

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Yeah I saw that, but they are a shit hole, and they get no business at all! Plus it's all Mexicans working there in the daytime. It'd be a last resort. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a SECOND JOB. I DONT NEED THE MONEY. Besides, if you are not busy then the option of waiting and making money is not there, and if waiters are just standing around doing nothing then they don't need bus boys to clean the tables. So, I don't think working for 3.xx dollars an hour is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been up for about a week now. I got a job at the gas station working 3rd shift most likely. Thanks for the info shotgun on Chase. If I was not a full time student I'd be all over it but it conflicts with my schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evan9381 Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 IIRC, if waiters aren't making enough in tips for the day to clear minimum wage, the restaraunt has to pay the difference to get you to min wage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not hard to make even in SUPER slow week waiting. But thanks, I will look into that as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked with all mexicans for a year and a half at Steak n shake. Its like any place when there are 4 of them and one of you it ends up being you vs them because of the language and cultural differences. Yes some experiences will differ but I would not put myself in that situation again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad is Dead Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 That mexican restaurant{Casa Fiesta...but now is changin their name to Los{something} place seriously is never busy. I think it would be a waste of time to work their unless you were the only waiter working that day. But by the way the last time I went there, there were 2 waitresses who weren't mexican.

evan9381 Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 the one time i went there, the food was decent for the price (i think we both ate for <$20 with tip)...hopefully that doesnt change and if it changes to las margaritas, im gonna be pissed. horrible food that place has Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 They just changed ownership not to long ago. I ended up grabbing a job at Speedway. They started me out at 32 hours. My second job just turned into my primary job. And I don't want to work with all the Mexicans because I would go insane listening to them speak Spanish all day. I already go nuts having to listen to the Macedonians at my work. I'm not discriminating them or anything, I would just go insane listening to that for an entire work day.

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 He doesn't speak the language? KillJoy I live in the USA. When I work with people who don't speak English, the problem is they don't speak English, not that I don't speak Spanish, etc. Get me? I have worked with others who don't speak English well. Sometimes, yes, there are communication probelms, but I've found at a job, you generally are expected to perform similar tasks from day to day. This means a simple form of communication capable of fulfilling the needed requirements is easy enough to establish between two intelligent people of different languages. I've lived mostly in Texas and Cali. Maybe, it's because I've had more experience working with latinos and asians this isn't a bid deal to me. I worked with all mexicans for a year and a half at Steak n shake. Its like any place when there are 4 of them and one of you it ends up being you vs them because of the language and cultural differences. Yes some experiences will differ but I would not put myself in that situation again. I've worked with many different nationalities. What you describe doesn't differ from nationality to nationality. You can experience that anywhere you work. The difference being is that those guys probably felt alienated. How much of an effort did you make to communicate and be friendly? And if you did make an honest, friendly effort, then maybe those guys were just dicks. Race still has nothing to do with that. I've become very good friends with others who didn't speak English. I'm currently friends with a Brazilian couple who moved here from Brazil. We even party together. Granted, their English has improved GREATLY. Yes, it was a little hard in the beginning (They speak Portuguese, nothing like Spanish, really, making it even harder.) but we're all intelligent people not fuckin sloths. (Note: I actually really like sloths and want one as a pet.) There is also another couple from Columbia who party with us, as well. (I know these people thru a company I used to work for if you're wondering how I keep meeting all these "out of towners".) I know I got a bit off topic and this may just be my personality, but I dont' find anything wrong with making a little effort in my attempts at communicating and befriending others, no matter their origins, be it next door to me or from another country. Hell, I'll go out on a limb and say another damn planet, even. When you reach out to people, it's always amazing and pleasing to see them open up and do the same. Some of my fondest memories of friends and partying were with people who's language I couldn't always comprehend. lol Anyway, blah blah, unity, blah blah, love, blah blah, break down the barriers, blah blah, sex without a condom, blah blah I'll save the rest of my tree hugging, soapboxy opinions and beliefs for some other time.

ImUrOBGYN Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Shit, I just realized how off topic I am. I'm actually watching this thread for the reason it was started. Sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted February 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 You can stay off topic, I found a second job so... I don't like working with primarily foreign people because I have this notion that they are always talking shit about me. I came about this because I work with Macedonian people, and I picked up on a few of their shit talking words. They would talk shit about everyone in the damn shop, and it bothers me that they can just go from speaking English to Macedonian whenever they want to talk about something they don't want me, or any other non Macedonian speaking person to hear. I have plenty of friends that are foreign that speak in other languages, but they primarily stick to English when in their jobs, or with friends, and stick to the foreign language when they are at their houses speaking to their families. I'm cool with the Bosnian people I know, the people from Jordan that I know, and now I'm cool with the Macedonians at work. It's just something that bothers me and since I did NOT NEED a second job, it was something I was going to steer away from. Oh, and Speedway is still hiring if anyone is looking for a job.

Kevin R. Posted February 5, 2009 Report Share Posted February 5, 2009 Working with Mexicans is fun as fuck. They are usually more easy-going than most people in general. I loved detailing cars with my amigos back at Honda East. Funny mu' fuckers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
