I can't be the only fool who has to work today, are there any other poor devils working? Let us know what industry you are in and if you are being paid extra for doing this.

I'm working in a shopping Centre that isn't officially open but may open a few shops (confusing I know, but we don't know what's happening either). I'm not being paid any extra, I just get a day off in leiu.

I was told that you cannot resign with a pending investigation, but i was not sure if you could quit if you have another job offer.

I worked at a bookstore from 07/04 to 12/06. Our hours are from Monday-Saturday, 9:30AM to 9PM, and Sunday from 11AM to 5PM. I've told my boss about how slow it was between 9:30AM and around 10:30-11:00AM, and for that reason, I've decided to come in at 10AM rather than the regular time. Keep in mind that this is located in an outlet mall, so there are also other stores with separate hours. My boss was generally lenient about this, and him and the owner had told me that it was fine as long as I wrote down the time for coming in later, whether it be 10AM or even 10:30AM. My co-worker also tends to come in later too. Same goes for leaving work at the closing time of 9PM. If it's dead, we could leave a 1/2 hr early. My boss also leaves if it's dead, the earliest he left was 6PM. So, on 12/30/06, I was fired for coming in at 10:20AM, 50 minutes later than the opening time. I was told that I could come in later after the holidays, but I guess not. Was it right for them to fire me for this?

I work in a (non-commission) retail store selling holiday & party goods, gifts, toys, etc. Those of us on the closing shift today were told the store closed @ 5pm. A bit before 5, one of the powers-that-be @ headquarters called & said we had to stay open til 6 to draw in last-minute New Years Eve shoppers.

Then, HQ called back, not sure when, & said 7 was now the closing time! SCREW the fact some of us had prior plans, right? In fact, one of my co-workers sadly said she heard that if you left the shift early, even if you HAD to because you were hosting a party you couldn't cancel because guests were already en route to your home, you may as well quit, since otherwise you'd be FIRED!

I feel this practice is unprofessional & unfair. It's one thing to stay a half hour later than scheduled, if delays pop up. I don't mind that. It's quite ANOTHER thing to be forced, with NO prior notice of the possiblity, to stay 2 hours later than scheduled! My NYE plans were ruined.

Anyone else?

I was accepted for Gradschool, and starting my Masters in Information Technology on Jan 8, and im a bit worried. I found out that I have to maintain a 3.0 GPA every semester and an overall GPA of 3.5 to stick in the program. Im taking 8 credits, this semester thats two courses. I generally do well on IT courses, but still im worried at the high standards. Undergrad was shitty, i did OK but I could have done better. So my question, what should I expect on the grad program? is this a back breaking study times? Also Im 23, and im not working full time. Im concerened on how to act around with older people, as im thinking some of them might have families and more mature. I feel like im the immature kid and might stick out. I love participating in class, but i dont know if I should filter all my asnwers to make it sound "professional." Its odd really, Undergrad was real easy for me, i mean I felt like i didnt really do much to get a good grade.
