#coronavirus #unemployment #jobsearch

I work delivering pizzas and last night I drove all over. With the virus everyone is staying in so I been making a lot of tips cuz things have been real busy. My buddy joked that I should wash my money when i get home. I wonder if I should? Can you get Coronavirus from touching money someone hands you?

Help What do I do with no money and bills to pay? #unemployment

First off, the job site took forever to open so they were 4 weeks late on our pay. We didn’t get paid for 4 whole weeks. So I fell behind on all my bills and almost got evicted as they provided no safety net for us getting paid or anything. Secondly they didn’t include my incentive pay when they finally gave me a paycheck. The incentive was $200 each time for last minute waking me up out of my bed at 1:00am because they didn’t have enough officers to work the overnight shift. They owe me $400. Lastly I was going for a supervisor position and not only did they bring a white guy in who was a brand new employee and give him the position over me, they also pushed me out of the whole job entirely and looked for any excuse to fire me. THEY BARRED ME FROM WORKING AT ANOTHER ALLIED UNIVERSAL SIGHT WHICH ISNT PROTOCOL AT ALL. DO....NOT....WORK....AT....ALLIED....UNIVERSAL #stressful #racistmanagers

Knowing I was making good money to support my family #

Because positive energy is addicting. IT WAS FAST PACED BUT JUST WATCHING CUTOMERS SATISFIED AND THEY TIPPED BERY WELL.

Jobcase provided a link for me to describe my experience working for Sanders Concrete Service in San Angelo TX.
Well ,I owned and operated SCS about 8 or 9 years as sole proprietor. The experience was bad. The work was there and I was raised up in this business as many concrete people are,the best ones did it as a young kid with their family growing up,in my humble opinion. The work is extremely labor intensive and I have to say that the help is hard to find and when yout in this business it is a very stressful situation at times . I am not going to sit here and whine about the work ,I knew whst I was gettin myself intoand I was just trying to make a future as i was a new father and at 30 years old I was ready to step up to the next level in my life to be a responsible man that took care of his own .I supported two households and I stopped any and all extracurricular activities and if i was doing anything it was associated with gerting a job done sobi coukd start the next one. Im 49 years old now, i have a back problem that wont allow me to do the work as i was once able to do. And every three months i was broke,for the first two years i was working my tail off and when it came time to pay qaurterly taxes sometimes i didnt have enough in the bank to even cover it. And i woukd start over every qaurter. I never ,screwed over a customer or an employee.although im sure that some thiught i was jyst making money hand over fist ,and i had several incidents of thedt . Now i had chikdren to provide for from a dysfunctional relationship and my personal life was not a good experience that I would have ever seen coming. Now, im not able to pour concrete,i dant commit to even go help day work as my back is always on the cusp of going out. And i have a horrible issue with taxes. I have nothing to show for my effort except for the work that is standing up to this day . It takes money,and they are doing their darndest to keep a poor man poor,and its criminal how the tax code is written, but guess who is in legal trouble? I hate my life and i want to die sometimes thanks to the goid ole IRS.

I was told before hiring I could easily make $80000-$100000 in first year and after 4 months no way that can happen for IAM only being given 20-25 hours a week and still part time. It was a total let down and lie from beginning by two highest supervisors. What a disappointment. Going elsewhere with my notice next week as I'm hired for my same abilities and more. They led me on. I have been a excellent person and customer said to me the other day I have helped her more than anyone she ever met in any Home Depot. A True learning experience. Move on to move forward and upwardly.
