I got fired.

Not sure how it varies from state to state, but I think around here you can be 18 and serve alc. Pretty sure, I have a few freinds that did bartending before they were 21.

No, this was quite illegal. The way it works in Ohio is: You have to be 19 to work in a bar or in the bar section of a larger establishment or to take drinks to a table. You cannot, however, pour or handle the alcohol until you're 21.

I do find it kind of funny how many times I've been screwed over in getting positions at jobs because of sexism. There are plenty of women around that bitch about getting inferior treatement because they're female, yet have no problem when they get advancements in the job market over me solely because they have breasts. Double standards are awesome.

Then there was a while back when I found out the job I had at the time I had gotten just because my name was the only one in the stack of applications that sounded "white," but I digress.

Thats the way it's been in every state I've bartended in.

Actually, I thought more about it and decided not to even worry about it. As much fun as it would be, I really do like the bitches husband, and he does own the place. Wouldn't be fair to him, even though most of the things wrong there are his fault. I guess I'll just let karma sort this one out without my assistance.

Turns out, I might not have to after all. I'm not even gone a week and shits already falling apart. I was driving out towards the mall today and I saw cop cars with flashing blues outside early this morning. A few hours later they were still there. I still don't know whats up yet, but once I do, I'll probably laugh about it.

Now my question is, I could very easily get the place shut down due to many, many infractions against ALE laws, INS issues, Labor stuff, OSHA stuff, and probably even with the cops for the sheer amount of recreational pharmacuticals that pass through, get sold out of the place. Would that be petty of me? Sure, I'd probably at least get a handful of people deported and the remaining like 14 employees would lose their jobs too, but half are college students whose mommy and daddy pay for everything anyway. They just use thier tip earnings for their weed/coke/booze money. The other half are illegal immigrants who already are on the verge of being deported. What do y'all think? Besides, in this town, getting another bartending job would be a breeze.

You've just described about every restaurant/club in existance. Probably a good reason why most night clubs don't last more than 3 years.

Screw the boss, don't screw the workers, ie don't call the INS. Otherwise yer no better than the boss.

[jonas]

Just stab her, that'll teach her.

[SpoDaddy]

Focus on the wrongful termination case

I'd do something about the shitheads in the place even if they didn't fire me.

I never claimed to be.

Seems I'm not the only employee, former or otherwise who has plans for this place anyways. I spoke with a buddy of mine who's still there and since no ones been paid in about a month, they're all talking about getting back at em now.

[JefmcC]

no ones been paid in about a month,

And they continue to work there, why?

[M]

Dude.. that place sucks. I'm sorry to hear that happend to you dude.

I'd say they come begging you back. Tell 'em to go to hell, then find something better.
