One week ago, my leave of absence from Subway was over and I was supposed to physically report to that Subway in order to check in and resume my job.
I arrive at that Subway and they are closed for remodeling. This leaves me a little worried about the status of my job. I call the corporate offices and get the number of the new manager, call the new manager, and receive no reply.
Today they reopen for business, and I walk in to speak to the manager.
I will not be given my job back, as according to the terms of the leave of absence, not reporting to the store on the day required counts as voluntarily leaving the store, and they have a no re-hiring policy.
FUCK Subway.
dude mine is remodeling right now
waoooohawagh
I'm fairly sure it's an ongoing campaign.

My company is outsourcing my job to Poland.
My job is to train the guys who are taking my job, how to do my job.
My job is in a constant state of flux right now.
At any moment I could get laid off or get shipped to Poland for further training.
Then get laid off.
Either way the layoff is going to happen.
Funny story, a guy on my boat actually licked another guy's balls for some signatures.
To clarify, signatures are fucking gold on a submarine. Your first year is spent qualifying watches and stuff and if you get behind the high command will kick your ass and make you work longer hours so you can catch back up. The licker in question was about to be behind as we were pulling into a port and he really didn't want to miss out on any drunken shenanigans so he was willing to do whatever it took to not be stuck on the boat.
I'm been sending in my resume at jobs left and right. I honestly don't know why I don't have a job. Resume behind spoilers
Objective: Responsible, detailed oriented, self-starter seeks full or part time employment.

this is late and I don't know if anyone else covered this, but your objective is too vague
you're basically just saying, hey I want work I'll take anything
and while that may be true of you, it's not what you actually want to say
either target a specific type of work, or adjust your objective for each type of industry you're applying in and try to find a way to tie it to your experience
but just saying, "I want a job, any job" is going to get you ignored

Also say that you're looking for stable long term employment. Most companies don't want to hire people who they're going to have to replace in 6 months.
My boss told me I don't do any work and he was sick and tired of it and was going to hire someone to replace me. I burnt my bridge in the most glorious fashion by proving everything I did to the company, some of the clients I helped him keep because of my excellent PR work, and then said "I guess that leaves me no choice but to do this..." and handed him my printed resignation that I printed a day earlier. I wiped the computer clear of all my personal code and research I did on personal time with my own property (not work property) and then gave him all of the compiled binaries he paid me for that I did do on my personal time because I in no way gave him source code ever. I cleaned the computer and stuff a day earlier and sent an email as we were discussing the problem.
The secretary was his niece and she had been pretty bitchy all of a sudden so I'm not sure what the problem was. She basically was going off on how I never did any work and then he got wind of it and had to talk to me about it. Turns out he went out of business a few months ago. I'm sure not related to me because he fucking lied to all his clients, all the time.
You're lucky your boss was an idiot then, because in many companies -- especially a larger one -- you would have bought yourself a ticket to court. If you do work on company time, especially AT the company, in almost all cases, they own it. Wiping source code is tantamount to setting fire to shit they paid you to make.
Beyond that, your story doesn't make you sound good, just like a petty jackass.
I'd never hire someone who acted like you did.
Regarding resume objectives? Most schools of thought now say you don't need one.
If you're submitting a resume, it's safe to assume you're looking for a job. The cover letter is far more important.

I envy those who work. I was a student for 4 years. Now I'm a student for 3 more. All the work, none of the income.
Try being an unpaid intern. More and more of the work, with less of the education, for less of the income, because I'm spending so much GODDAMN MONEY ON GAS FUCK

you know what dawns on you working in a place like that, that people are not only ugly
but a good quarter of them are out of their fucking minds
Hate you
I have so much responsibility at my new job and I think I'm already developing an anxiety problem

Janson, where I'm working is currently hiring.

I can't tell if that is legible or not on regular resolutions. I hope not. Anyways, it got me a great job performing on the gayest stage ever
snap
start stalking from office to office with an armalite
because i have a new boss and the old one is gone gone gone
And also the summer before that
and the summer before that I scooped ice cream
That is all
If you're submitting a resume, it's safe to assume you're looking for a job. The cover letter is far more important.
the game is a little buggy and holy crap dialogue repeats a lot
but nothing
nothing beats the sheer joy of driving around in a monster truck with ROCKET BOOSTED JUMPS
Don't worry, I hate me too
and I'm developing an anxiety problem based around the thought of someone realizing I'm totally worthless
good thing I only have two weeks left
A good boss can make all the difference
I have two
The one that told me he couldn't hire me because of my murder conviction
And one that is incredibly buff, has an earring, and when I met him he was wearing a really low v-neck t-shirt. Surprisingly he has a girlfriend
The point is, I touched his shoulder today
Where was this dream internship again?
:whistle:
Try being an unpaid intern. More and more of the work, with less of the education, for less of the income, because I'm spending so much GODDAMN MONEY ON GAS FUCK
oh right
like rent
and food
thanks, mom and pop
Then use the money from lyric opera to get it customized to be the deadpool-scooter
What's the new boss like?
I'm guessing he's not as spineless.
