Yes this scanner is very nice. I knew that question would arise about my jobs. OK it started on september 2002 with Mcdonalds which I lasted for 2 weeks b/c few days I was there and affecting school. Next job was Friendly's in July 2003 I was there for 3 days b/c I kept dropping dishes.Then it was Wendy's where I was getting 7 hours/2days a week (not even worth the gas so my mom made me quit)Then it was Arby's in May 2004 which I thought I was gonna be there awhile except one of the managers didnt like me and made some girls accuse me of sexual harrassment. Then it was Grotto's which is a local pizza place where I workd for 3 weeks then one night I was accused of saying something I didnt and was fired. I was then at Food Lion for 3 weeks but was fired when my ride never picked me up while I fell asleep waiting for em.I was at a local bowling lane from September 2004-April 6 2005 (longest job for me) which I lost b/c the leagues were over. I was at staples from January 2005-March 2005 and was let go b/c they didnt have the hours for me. Iwas getting 15 hours and this place was about 30 miles away. I was then hired at Chuck E cheese and was fired last thursday b/c I called out sick twice and b/c another manager set me up again. Which brings me to subway I started last Friday with orientation and then worked monday-thursday and then work sunday,monday and wensday. I love it but hate it of course it is a job

Well, if Subway doesn't work out, I would suggest going into a different field. Food joints just don't seem to be your forte (strong point). That actually may end up to be a very, very good thing for you one day.
Don't consider that a bad thing. I am not trying to make fun. I am serious. I would say look into different fields if you have access. Maybe your town has openings in it's offices, etc. The Hospital, The Post Office, Video Store etc. Our Village Hall pays decent money. $20 an hour for minimal work with only High School required and flexible hours. They also help pay for tuition. The jobs tend to be very hard to get into though. If strapped, I would take the job myself. It's many times one of those "I knew that person" job which is why I got it. But, you can get lucky.
If you have the opportunity to go to college, trade school, etc., you should at least try it out. You might just like it. Just be sure to pick something you at least moderately like to do. The more you enjoy what you do in college, the happier off you will be in college. Going to college to major in something you hate (People usually do this out of sheer financial goals) is usually a death call. College is meant to be a good experience, not a nightmare. Many people who picked majors they hated usually end up dropping out because they don't succeed at them. I personally think doing something such as picking a major you already hate is a disastrous mistake.
You (or someone) are paying for it afterall.
Personally, for $40,000 a year I expect waiters serving bottled beverages and better seats, but that's just me.

 well lets see at Arby's the assistant manager and I never got along from the start mainly b/c she disrespected customers.She had 2 girls set me up which sucked; basically one girl said she could teach me stuff for money and joking I said ok(the assistant over heard this and reported it) and the other girl said I touched her butt which actually was the other way around b/c I was leaning out the drive thru window and she literally slapped my ass which i thought she doing for a good laugh.The same assistant manager said she saw me touch the girl though;however that manager wasnt even there at that time.
At Grotto's, it was late about 9pm and the dishwasher was going on break well being a busboy I was asked to do. I said I dont know what to do to do dishes. Now keep in mind everthing in this place is your job; nothing is not your job. Well the person I said that i dont know how to dishes was one of the assistant manager.He took it as I didnt wanna do so he told me go which I did and came back the next day to talk with the main manager who said that I said I dont do dishes at all which was completly untrue so basically I got fired for nothing. My mom also worked here at the same time and said that she heard people saying I cursed the manger out which is why I was fired. So the whole thing I have never figured out and probally never will. I know they wont be a good reference b/c I apply at another pizza place in town and they called Groto's for a reference and Grotto's said that I wasnt a good employee.
Chuck E Cheese was awesome but like I said the assistant manager was pregnant so she was always PMSing. I called out sick twice in 3 weeks and she tried firing me, but she knew that wouldnt be enough so she made up some bullshit that I was touching people wrong as Chuck E Cheese(i had to dress as the mouse there and also make sure no kid left with the wrong parent).
I would go into the military but considering I have flat feet cant go in.

Yes I have 2 middle name Phillip is my great grandfather's name and Pursell is a family name. I have applied to the following places:In seaford: Pizza King(pizza place that grotto's gave bad reference),Sal's (little pizza place),Blockbuster(applied about 6 times last year and have talked with manager but he wont hire me),Walmart,Hardees,KFC,Taco Bell,Pizza Hut,Dominos,Burger king,Holiday Inn,Best western,Powerhouse gym,Roses(department store),Foot Locker, Tunes(music place),Peebles,Alfredos,Applebess, Sears and Subway. In salisbury(about 30 minutes from here): Lowes,Walmart,Target,Home Depot,Barnes and Noble,Cirvuit City,Best Buy,Micheal's(craft store),Outback, Chili's, Wawa,Book warehouse,Aeropastle,Express,Victoria's Secret,Spencers, KB toys, Boscovs,Finish Line, Sam Goody,Sears,Regal Cinemas,McDonalds,Burger King,Hot Topic,American Eagle,Sam's Club,Wendy's,Petsmart,Applebees,Hardees, and Movie Gallery.  I know thats alot of place but I have followed up with em too they wont hire though which really sucks. However the silver lining is that Regal is building a bigger theater which should open in Septemeber so they might hire me then.Thats of course if I dont go to college.

Brent, I have a friend whose name is Purcell.
BTW, if you keep up the average, you might end up working in 132 jobs in the next 36 years. :wink:

It sounds like you aren't being "set up" you are just really ignorant of your surroundings and what is and is not consider appropriate.
There is likely not a conspriacy against you.

I'd fire you for that lapse of logic, too.
