When I was a teen working at Canes, I vividly remember management asking a guy to come in on his day off at 8am(mind you, employees normally got there around 930 or so to open) just so they could fire him. He had worked the night before and was looking rough but always eager to pick up an extra shift. All for $6/hr back then. Hope he’s doing well.

When I got fired from my first job, I had to walk a mile to work on my day off first thing in the morning just to get the news. I was so mad all I could do was laugh

On the plus side, that's like 4 hours reporting pay.

True but I was a server at the time so it was 7.25/hr if anything 😭
