and this is why i hate working for family...

so last week i only worked three days. seven hours monday, sixteen hours tuesday, off wednesday, nine hours thursday, and off friday. no problem there, it really wasn't that bad of a work week except for tuesday when climbing in and out of a truck with a stuck door and arm rest in the way made my knee act up so i took wednesday off. but thats where the problem starts.

you see, we are supposed to recieve a fourty hour paycheck if we worked less, unless we call in sick. ok, so i called in on wednesday. but the sixteen hour day kept the hours up to the same total. except that grandpa called off work on friday.

he's supposed to give us a chance to come into the shop and putter around there if we have no jobs to go out on. but he didn't give me that chance at all this time. and now he's saying that i don't get the fourty hours because i took wednesday off and he's not going to pay me for friday at all. its bullshit.

he's taking away a chance that he's suppose to give us, but quoting other rules, saying the whole time that he's doing this to 'be fair' for everyone else. the biggest problem is that grandpa isn't fair and never has been, so that arguement falls flat on its face.

no, this is grandpa just trying to save money so that he can pay on the boys house notes and car payments.

fuck working with family.
