[rundontwalk]

Hope it goes okay for you. :)

[Rusty Shackleford]

[Commissar Rykov]

Congrats on the moving up.:)

[PC LOAD LETTER]

I so wish I could get 26k a year like that.

Right now I'm making around half that.

Seriously, congrats dude!

[tir1944]

Isn't 12,5$/hr quite nice?

[Tablo]

Isn't 12,5$/hr quite nice?
It is considering the current economic situation.

That is extremey good news....congratulations. I am very happy for you! :):)

Minimum wage is $7.25 per hour ... so yeah, it's pretty decent. I mean, it's $500 per week before taxes. It's enough to split an apartment with a room mate and be comfortable.

mmmmmm...forklift :drool:

[Rusty Shackleford]

Man, in a few weeks ill be able to fix my car, get a not-broken phone, put money into political work, and buy food :D


Also. i am going to learn and figure out the revolutionary potential of the drivable pallet jack

Hey, congrats man! That's great. :thumbup1:

The forklifts are just a nice bonus. :lol:

[Morgenstern]

Congratulations. That's pretty lucky for these times.

[Rusty Shackleford]

Congratulations. That's pretty lucky for these times.
It probably helped that i applied for 3 different warehouse positions within a week at the same place. I did those back in August. Got an unexpected call about a week ago from them and yeah.

We shall eagerly await your reports comrade! You name shall be amongst the greatest of forkliftists!

[Magón]

FYI on the drivable pallet jacks. They're addicting to use. I used to have a job where we had two of them. When the boss was gone, we'd race them and also if we weren't careful, nearly take out a whole aisle of something or other with the front. Good times, shitty boss.

[GatesofLenin]

Congrats comrade Rusty Shackleford, any chance to unionize? :thumbup1:

[Leonid Brozhnev]

Pallet Jack Operators of the world unite!

[El Louton]

Nice one :)

That isn't actually so bad...

More than enough money to live from, and not many hours, room for a part time job :)

[Rusty Shackleford]

theres still one part to overcome but i cant imagine them not completing the hiring process after the background check, drug test, and physical(first time ive seen a doctor for actual health in YEARS!) which costs a few hundred to do.

[Il Medico]

Congrats mate!

[Rusty Shackleford]

FUCK YES!

And its been confirmed. Revleft resident Shackleford, Rusty is now employed as a warehouse worker and a retail worker. Fuck anyone who ever said communists were lazy, including young me. Between party work and regular work, were busy people.

[Rusty Shackleford]

I know im back to back posting on here, but i just cant help but talking about it.

After 6 months (if i make it through the first 90 days of training) i might be able to relocate to any warehouse in the country (and possibly canada)


Whaddasthatmean? I CAN MOVE TO FUCKING COLORADO OR MINNESOTA OR PENNSYLVANIA OR CONNECTICUT OR WHERETHEFUCKEVER, EVEN OREGON AND WASHINGTON AND IOWA AND TEXAS BUT I DONT CARE ABOUT IOWA OR TEXAS YAARRRRRRRR.

I guess the point is in the long run i might consider moving within the company because wages are somewhat livable for a single person. I can move to another place and try to foster a new location for struggle and yeah.

Has anyone done this kind of thing before?

It's a damn shame and an indication of how fucked up things really are that anyone thinks it is.

If you worked full time that would be 2000 a month before taxes, transportation to and from work, etc.

Meanwhile: "The average rent for a Manhattan studio--four walls, a closet kitchen and a toilet--has increased to $2417...." - http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/04/08/new-york-city-rent_n_530153.html

You do the math.

Sounds like UPS. I worked there for a short while. I quit because (1) they were giving us shifts that were so short I actually lost money -- I was paying more to get to work and back then I was making (2) I hurt my back.

During training, they made all kinds of nice promises to us about being able to work in Hawaii or Puerto Rico, become drivers and make good money, etc. All bullshit. The whole group that trained with me had left before the first 90 days. Turns out that particular place, one of the company's busiest in the world, has a 90% turnover rate on new employees.
