You can't file a lawsuit against a company for firing you, unless of course it was a valid reason like racial or sexual discrimination.  It's the economy, there is nothing you can do about it.

Luckily, my job is safe in tact...for now.  More people are getting fast food rather than something fancy (I assume..).  My parents, however, got hours cut at their job.  But, my dad has a backup part time job that can turn into full time easliy

i can't really say the same, yes i work in the fast food industry...but when you're working with idiots (management team)...nothing gets done or make sense...

for the first time EVER that i've been working at freddy's...i have TEN (10!) cashiers...and 8 cooks...we're becoming overstaffed, theres a lack of communication, all my managers are MALES, so their going to continue hiring hot looking cashiers (i should add that i'm now the last male cashier who gets paid higher than the other cashiers) making me target number 1 on the list to be fired.

it's ridiculous.

anyway back on subject :p haha. sorry.

Okay.

You know what really annoys me? When everyone in class text messages. It's so annoying. They don't pay attention to the teacher and just spend the entire period text messaging. What's so amusing about text messaging?

Why does it annoy you when someone else is text messaging in class?  I don't see how that takes away from you learning.

Anyways, I'll admit to texting.  But, I RARELY do it in school.  I don't see a point in it.  It's not worth getting your phone taken away.

yeah really. i don't see how it's really THAT annoying....i'll admit as well i've done it...but only to my college buddies - i never understood why you'd text a friend at school when you can see them at lunch or something.

btw kyle we need to catch up! it's been....FOREVER. haha

Very nice Al! I like it! The only problem I have with it is the slogan. It doesn't communicate that TWCT is no longer covering just today's TWC.

LOL. duh! i kinda forgot that was the reason for prompting a change...letme see if i can think of anything else.

edit: TWC Today - See the difference.

haha idk.
