Worked on the weekends
When I was first teaching I worked at Home Depot on Friday after work and then Saturday and Sunday's in the garden center as a cashier and then inside during the winter months. I needed the extra income as my wife and I were buying our first home and the more money we could put down the better! I basically filled the hours for those who wanted weekends off. I enjoyed being outdoors during the warmer months, but the summertime could get pretty hot. They were good about giving me bottled water and a fan in my little booth. It wasn't a bad job at all.
That story is so good about making extra money and I wish it was summer now, It is to cold here in Texas.
yes
That was good for you working on the weekends.
I went in for my annual review recently. All I got was a lousy 3 cents an hour raise
I have worked for HD off and on since 2007...it was one of the most fun jobs I have ever worked but the pay is horrible and you can forget about a good raise! But all in all I loved it!!
I work there now for a little over 2yrs love it and the people i work with
Good for you, I hope your hard work was rewarded!
Did you end up getting the house you wanted Ben?
Yeah sometimes you gotta do whatever you can to make money!
I love your attitude, it's inspiring.
