Then quit and go somewhere else. Problem sovled. Apparently the guy who keeps taking off isn't making this gig his sole source of income or doesn't need the money.

i have already threatened to goto the other bar
problem is I make BANK here
i mean alot of cash, and i make the bar bank

as long as i am there i have no rules, keys to everything, can through a VIP party and it not cost anything for anyone, im well known and well liked by our regular clientele, i can do this while still in school and it doesnt interfere too much with life.

this job pays for my toys while i get a education. since my wrx engine blew up i needs this to make ends meet, if the cars engine didnt blow up i would of been fine, but that 9k cost and hurt deep for a grad student

At $9K I guess you bought that engine from a dealer? Seems like there could have been tons of subie forum members or import shops who could have sold you one for half that.

And I love how people these days txt bad news to someone, instead of calling them. Convenient.

Texting is so they dont have to man up and talk to the person so they dont have to hear the Disappointment/anger/whatever emotion it may be....And not feel like an ass.

I'd cover the shift to spite his ass and then when he asks again i'd say sure no problem...then an hour before i would text him and say your balls deep in your gf and you cant make it in.

Fuck him right back...And I also agree...9k for a new motor? theres such a Subie following out there...did you check forums and shit? Hell my old roomate has a WRX like yours and a 2010 STi he buys shit all the time for cheaper off of forums like this.

Then stop complaining.

If you're bringing in all the cash then tell them to fire the douche or you're gone. I'd rather make a little less then be stressed.

Just remember these two simple words the next time he "asks" a favor.

FUCK YOU

When he gives you that bullshit butt hurt look and wonders why, just tell him his word is worth shit ( or used toilet paper )

Rangerscott · 02-12-2011, 07:24 PM

So... I'm not understanding why he's able to get off so much even if you're covering for him. Is he fucking the bar's owner?

Its a bar, its not like working in an office. A lot of part timers, students, etc etc.
