well as some of you know ive got a new job, which pays well but my old job have over paid me!!!
my last month there i only done 4 days work from the last pay day
thats 7.5 hours a day so thats 30 hours, i got paid £3.52 so thats £ 105 odd, but they paid me about £500!!!!! the only thing i can think of is that , if you remeber i told them 8 weeks prior to christmas i couldnt work that week, came to christmas, they said i was meant to work, i just got back and phone rang, boss giving me sh!t as i was meant to work, he said ill be getting a letter in mail, i had to have a interview in a bigger manager, and he took my case to them, by that time i had a new job lined up.....so maybe i got paid for the week i wasnt there, but that should only be another £100 odd pounds
plus im getting payed fri, from my new job for 2 weeks work, im expecting about £350 pound!!! ( would get more but only work 4 days a week as at college) that will be going up after 3 months if they want me, i know it aint much compared to what some of you earn, but not bad for a 19 year old!!!!
see education does work!!!

about 1.5 dollars make a pound, but that beyond the point, the point is my old job( crap job, boss from hell, and crap pay) over payed me!!!!
if i work it out in dollars, i was meant to get about $150, but got paid $ 750 from them!!!! my new job pays about £45 a day, $67.5
not great, but ive only just started and will be going up, after a few years of being there with my diplomas and experience i should be able to get a very good job, and hopefully well payed!!
i do design work using auto cad ( do you have that in usa??) ill also get work to pay for me through college ( to do a 3d auto cad), hopefully gonna get in on the computer game scene, would love to deign games, like change artist pic in to games!!
hope that helps all yo americans

Maybe it\'s a Christmas bonus. My employers only gave me $50 and a box of chocolates for christmas. Man $50 is such a paltry amount for a christmas bonus. I keep thinking of Bo Diddley\'s character from the movie Trading Places. "In Philadelphia it\'s worth FIFTA BUCKS!"

I got nothing for 7 years for a christmas bonus. Or as it really is, year end tax write off. I\'ve gotten one the past two years, although I was epecting quite a bit more on this last one.
