You said you went to college. Did you complete a degree in college? If so, what in?

You can file for unemployment online or over the phone in most places. Only takes a few minutes. If you don't, you're just stupid. You've been paying into the unemployment system, might as well get what's rightfully yours.

Do you have your CDL?

Not yet. That's what I'm gonna work on Monday before I head in to the interview on Tuesday.

What do you mean "work on Monday"

You honestly think its that easy to get a CDL? Do you even know what a CDL is??? It takes months of driving courses and then passing a rather difficult test to get your CDL.

My boss(let's call him dipshit) had apparently called him the night before saying that it was here and ready to be picked up. What my boss didn't notice was that not only was it the wrong cabinet but it was also for the wrong customer. This has happened way too many times to count. He's not a very bright person.

Anyway, Bob is reasonably upset at this point considering he drove 50 miles to come pick it up. Dipshit(my boss) tries to explain to him that the correct cabinet did come for Bob like he said before and that I had given it to the wrong customer yesterday. I let it go and didn't say a word because I didn't want to upset Bob further. I had spoken with him before and he's a really nice guy.

After Bob leaves I confront Dipshit about what he had told asking why he head said that it was my fault. Dipshit completely freaks out on me saying things like, "I can say whatever the fuck I want to", "get the fuck out of my face" etc... I was shocked. He wasn't exactly saying this in a calm manner either. At one point I thought he was going to hit me. I reply back with, "Dude, don't talk to me like that I just wanted to know..." Didshit breaks in, " I can talk to you however the fuck I want to!".

So, at that point I decided it was time for me to grab my paycheck and leave. What the hell just happened! Was I wrong for asking him why he blamed the mishap on me? There's no question that he was wrong in how he responded to me but how am I not supposed to stick up for myself about this. This is my job I don't need anyone coming down on me for something I had no part in.

Cliffs:
- Work for a family owned home improvement warehouse
- Boss messes up tells customer to come and pick up a cabinet that isn't there
- I get accused because my boss was trying to cover his own ass
- Confront boss and get cursed out by boss
- Get fired for asking why he blamed it on me

I've never tried to get a CDL so no I have no idea on how to aquire one. Thanks for the input though. Seems though that I only need to get a "Class F"? driver's license to legally drive a home delivery Fedex truck. Once again, thanks for your valuable input!

I did not complete my degree. I was going forNetwork Management but decided that I hate computers too much to work around them for the rest of my life. So now I'm back to having no idea what I want to officially major in. It sucks.

Yeah I know. I'm still paying my initial student loans at the moment and really don't want to get myself further in debt until I get everything paid off. Only $1300 to go though!

Be aware that your credits can expire if you don't complete the degree in a reasonable time frame.

Lol, what a fucking loser. Go back to your mothers basement 'Jedi' and may the force be with you.

Oh, and some suggestions for you future posts:

1. Your posts needs more AOL kiddie typing. You're on the right track with by shortening words like 'are' and 'you' to " r u " because we all know that you're really busy and don't have the time to type those really long words in their entirety. However, you're missing the crucial random capitalization. This is key to becoming the UbEr 1337 AOl kIdDIe.

2. Stop acting like post count is and indicator of anything other than the fact that you spend an inordinate amount of time posting here.

3. You don't need to pretend to us that your time is valuable. In short, you don't have to lie to kick it. We all know that you're swamped with eating twinkies and watching porn and we're cool with that. These aren't crucial uses of your time, though so you don't need to act like reading a post is a waste of your time. Twinkies never go bad and all your downloaded porn isn't going anywhere. Time is not of the essence here.

That is all.

It is seriously like night and day plus the benefits are unbeatable. Not to mention there will be a union to back you up from day 1 if you join it. You will never have to worry about this kind of problem again if you do that.

Best advice in this thread but from reading this thread, it doesn't sound like the OP is too bright.
