I hate that. I worked at Wal Mart (for 3 days lol) and my boss there said something similar. That Wal Mart was a family. It was so stupid

I've once asked an employer like that for a day off. When asked why I said it was because I wanted to celebrate my birthday. He replied with "Why? I don't take days off for MY birthday". Told him to shove my job up his ass and quit.
Now whenever one of these "family" assholes asks why I want the day off I just reply "because I've earned those days as by government mandate". ... Copied to Clipboard!

If you were in a new startup where the company succeeding or failing depended entirely on the individual actions of an extremely small team it'd be kind of shitty to have that attitude (or even take the job in the first place), but once you're hitting a few hundred that's a completely different story. --- "History Is Much Like An Endless Waltz.

If they want you in for longer, they should pay you for the time you're spending. You're not a family, you're not indebted to them and it's not selfish to ask for compensation for a service they're asking from you.
No amount of corporate doublespeak and emotional brainwashing will ever change that. --- Thought I saw a mouse kicking in your beak, it was only a skeleton Now Playing: Persona 3 FES, Minecraft, Oldschool Runescape ... Copied to Clipboard!
