Default First day on the Job

Landed a 40 hour a week, full time, full benefits job.. In a warehouse. Make 10 dollars an hour which is respectable in Arizona. Our minimum wage is 7.25 I believe.

Hopefully all goes well, killed the interview Now I just gotta kill the job, week in and week out.

Meh, I've been a busser before. Walked out with 150$ on top of 5 an hour on a 6 hour shift. Restaurant sucks dick though, way more stress, I'd rather not deal with another human outside my company or someone else's company EVER ******* again. Especially old unemployed ***** who just complain. ******* hell working retail and like that.

I move boxes from one place to another in a 500,000 SQ FT Warehouse. But I just discovered if I work at 120% production, I receive 200$ bonus each month. ******* sick. And everyones pulling it off, so I will be eventually.

This job is way to good.

Congrats man, glad to hear.

What kinda warehouse, is it like a name brand chain store warehouse or something private?

thats good that ya got above min. wage, always make's ya feel good knowing your making more than they are req'd to pay ya, although whse work can be physically demanding, depending on what your doing.
