    I was shot at while at work and employer made me work the full shift!

    I was shot at today by some guy over $20 today at work. After nearly 4 hours of dealing with the police I called the boss. I had been in contact with my office all morning keeping them up to speed, but the neglected to tell anyone in charge. After telling him what happened, the response was just "well call me back when its all over". Finally I did, and just got a "hmmp" after telling him what happened. I waited, no concern for me and I had to ask if I could just take the day off without paying for it since there would be no way for me to make any money with less than 5 hours of work left in my shift. After thinking real hard, he said no and that I could pay for half a days lease and keep working the rest of the day. Then he wished me luck at making enough money to pay for the half lease!

                              Sounds like driving a cab sucks.

                              Spend you some brain.

                                  I think you need to switch career paths.

                                  Sorry to hear about the shooting. Are you ok?

                                              New job is right, cabs suck now that the company I was op. manager for sold to the one I work for now. There is nowhere to go in this industry here and I've been trying to leave it since I lost my job in the business sale. I all but got out of adult when 2257 stuff came down hard, but even before that I was only making a few hundred a month with a 50k tgp.

                                                          You are an American with an SSN right? Sell everything, pack up and move to a new state. Sounds like you're in a sour spot. Maybe a change in scenery will change everything.

                                                              This would be an option if it were not for my kids, I stay here to stay by them. The job market in Eugene is bad. We are a college town where people come to town to get a degree and then decide no to leave and take jobs driving cabs or working at Mcdonalds. Last year a government study showed 70% of our jobs paid less than what it takes for a person to pay their bills if they are single or if married with more than one kid.

I drove a hack in Phx at night for 2 years....It was very special. and while I will never drive a cab again. Yes I made good money, I got to meet every loser, con artist , hooker, and drug addict in the greater phx area. While I was never shot. I have had several guns pressed to my head, attempted throat slicing (moron), and one cracked up idiot that tried to smash in the back of my head with a rock, while I was driving him down the freeway.....

The job market in Eugene is bad. We are a college town where people come to town to get a degree and then decide no to leave and take jobs driving cabs or working at Mcdonalds. Last year a government study showed 70% of our jobs paid less than what it takes for a person to pay their bills if they are single or if married with more than one kid.

It's a nice town and I love visiting (and feel like a king with the big city salary), but having no industry hurts a lot.

After nearly 4 hours of dealing with the police I called the boss. I had been in contact with my office all morning keeping them up to speed, but the neglected to tell anyone in charge. After telling him what happened, the response was just "well call me back when its all over". Finally I did, and just got a "hmmp" after telling him what happened. I waited, no concern for me and I had to ask if I could just take the day off without paying for it since there would be no way for me to make any money with less than 5 hours of work left in my shift. After thinking real hard, he said no and that I could pay for half a days lease and keep working the rest of the day. Then he wished me luck at making enough money to pay for the half lease!

That's the issue. He's thinking is it real this time or is it another story from another virtual convict I hired.

                                                                                                                              I had a neighbor that drove a van and he decided to fuck off all day and not answer the radio. So when the company asked him where he was he told them he got a call from the hospital because his girlfreind was admitted after being pistol whipped by her ex boyfriend so he rushed over and stayed by her side all day. Too bad he forgot that, in real life, he would have called into work on the radio and told them that he was going to the hospital.

                                                                                                                              He was fired on the spot.

It's a nice town and I love visiting (and feel like a king with the big city salary), but having no industry hurts a lot.

Eugene is .... unique. After living here a while, I wouldn't ever move back to a big city, even though it would be much easier for business.
