11. "salary or hourly? which do you prefer?"
In response to In response to 0


          

my first gig was salary I bounced one holiday weekend (memorial or labor day). when we had a project due. Car got towed so I called to leave a message to tell them I would be a day late due to the Philly fuckery.

someone answered the phone on Memorial day on some "yeah, we are working"

I didn't last at that place. First salary gig and wasn't used to working late or on weekends.

TBH the fact that you're even a mod here fits squarely within Jag's narrative of OK-sanctioned aggression, bullying, and toxicity. *shrug*
