Ginger Grant Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I;m sorry but I only get my haircut if I get called for a interview. Especially since it's $30 which can go toward food. Now I got a haircut 5 days ago because I had a interview last week. But if I had no interview I'm not paying $30 to have a nice haircut to be in the house or go to Rite Aid You chose to pay 30 bucks for a haircut. Next time, find an affordable barber. That's just common sense. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

It's a barber I been going to for 14 years who knows how to cut my hair. Now I don't think he will be cutting for another 14 years since he is now 60 years old. So I can only see me going to him for 5 more years Link to post Share on other sites

I'm willing to bet that if you had your haircut at a cheap haircut joint, your friends and family wouldn't notice the difference. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

pink_sugar Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Not all the time, it's not mentally healthy to stay at a job you hate because it interferes with your performance and work relationships. There's some truth to this. I quit a job I absolutely could not stand, because it was affecting my mental health and work performance. I was being treated like utter crap and our union did nothing...and my immediate supervisor was in a clique with the store manager, ratting me out every chance she got. When I asked for my wedding anniversary off weeks in advance, she purposely scheduled herself off instead that day and made me work. I didn't regret quitting and never looked back. I would have rather slept in my car than work another day at that horrible place. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
AlexDP Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 I see Employers feel they can call and schedule whenever they want since they have bought into the "POOR ECONOMY". I feel it was extremely stupid for someone to contact me on saturday to schedule a interview when they could have called on Friday or just waited until Monday. What if I planned on leaving town this weekend and wasn't schedule to arrive back in town until Sunday Night? Atleast when I received a call in the past on a saturday the interview was scheduled for the following wednesday. Of course I had no interest and deleted the message. Yes, they can. You can become an employer too. Be an entrepreneur. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
liquid_amber Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I hate to say this, but given all your other threads, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to figure out that you DO NOT want a job and you find every reason to complain and criticize whatever opportunity that is thrown at you. You have an answer for everything. You should be thankful. Instead you come across as lazy and arrogant. If only this company can see these threads. I am sure there are 10 other better qualified candidates that didn't get the opportunity you got. i agree. you say you want a job, but every time you get an interview you complain about what a huge inconvenience it is. if you need the job, you have to show them that you're willing to come in at their convenience. it's hard to believe anyone would have this attitude in today's job market. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

I don't NEED anything, so let's get that straight. And secondly I was not interested in the job, I was just pointing out how arrogant some employers are to call on a saturday and schedule you for a Monday. I am currently interviewing with other companies i;m interested but have no interest in that job Link to post Share on other sites
