Maxim: It is the one who told me that my destiny was to travel and fight.

I will not work weekends, end of story. If asked I'll simply refused. I will not waste my time. I don't care if my training isn't beneficial to the company, it's not beneficial to me either, I only do it because I get paid, it's not like I'm getting a diploma out of it. I will count my training time for my total hours and if you don't like that go

They said the training time didn't count towards my 40 hours a week and I'm counting it. The manager made us a deal to get an day off back in December in exchange for working an extra 9 hours (instead of 8) during the month of January (we have all month). That was fine since all I need to do is eat lunch at my desk and pretend to work and that counts. But it sucks anyway because normally lunch (30 mins) doesn't count so I'm there 8 and 1/2 hours instead of 8.

So for 2 and 1/2 days we had trainings because the work wasn't ready (not our fault) and they don't want to count those days, though I received the pay and I'm counting them. Plus I'm counting the extra meeting we had one day towards the 9 hours we have to make up for so that's 1 hour less because otherwise I wouldn't have stayed an hour later.

I'm basically counting it all since I'm definitely not staying because I want to, I'm staying for the money. The worse part is I foolishly signed a contract that says I have to give back 2k for training costs if I quit before a year. I was mad at my idiot mother and wanted a job to rub it in her face that I could easily get one and I wanted to be out of the house and to have money plus I got to travel north for a week and be away from that idiot. Also the job is supposed to be straight pay, meaning it's not hourly but any additional hours are paid at the same price as regular hours but then they tell me only the hours I bill to the clients count and that doesn't include training which I bill to the company.

It's crap and I fully intend to quit after the year ends, though I won't get any vacation days until after I'm there for a year and only got a Christmas vacation because they were shutting down (this year due to reaching goals etc. but it's not done every year) so there was no one there. But yeah, even if I do have to give back 2k over the contract I stupidly signed out of anger towards my idiot mother, I'll stay firm in my choice because my self respect just isn't for sale, not even for 2k.

I'll still be at Gaia and MAL even if I get quiet on LJ and of course Fanfiction Net and Pirates Board, I'm currently revising all my fics but it's taking forever since I have very little free time now. :( Working seriously sucks.

BTW how's IT2 going?

It's not really going ^^; I just honestly don't have the time just now. I want to, but it will have to wait, sadly :(

aw :( but it will eventually live right? As long as it doesn't die I'll faithfully wait.
