work in a wheel store,things are kinda slow right now,so it's a little worrisome.But there's nothing I can do about that.other then that It's a pretty cool job!!You get to meet some interesting people.Example I had the pleasure to help Ronaldo Hill of the Dolphin.#24.He brought his Lexus LS600h in for some tires.this thing had a full A.C. body kit with 22 inch Auto Couture Lative's and we even lowered it for him.I guess I really can't b itch bout anything except the lack of customers.But I can only hope that things will all change in 2009.Best wishes to everyone in the new year

I work in a nail salon and there are about 10 employees and when it get busy the women start to argue about customers. I had this lady that sat on table 3 argue with table lady on table 5. It all started this morning when we had the early morning rush ( I hate early morning rushes). It started to die down after 2 hours and there was one last customer waiting, she was waiting for lady on table 3. The lady on table 5 walks up to the customer and started luring the her into letting lady 5 do her nails. The customer agrees and next thing you know lady 3 walks up to lady 5 and they argue in vietnamese saying that, this isn't right what you are doing and that if a customer is waiting for her then let her wait. lady 3 starts crying and now all the customers in the salon start to talk about how unprofessional it is for employees in a salon to argue with each other.
I get up and I ask lady 3 to get out and I don't want to see her here anymore. Then she does a desperate move and starts swinging at the lady 5 and get 1 hit and I jump in between the two and I grab lady 3 and dragged her out of my shop. I emptied her table into a bag and told her to leave.
after this holiday I gotta get my sleeping bag ready for work.

but you know how it goes when the holidays come around, basically the only time we can make real $$$. hopefully 09 is better, 08 was a mess when the economy hit come. for us it was half way before the clients realized, "oh **** i need to stop spending" but they are paid on salary... im on commission. lol

this lady ******ed the hell outta me today at work because we charged her prescription the full price ($75). but it wasnt our fault because she didnt bring her insurance card. and she had the nerve to blame ME! " Stupid *** chinese boy!" (she yelled that out loud..im viet..
)
needless to say she brought her insurance card and everything was fixed.
