Yeah, didn't help that also I had....
A) Parents who'd volunteer the phone numbers of friends and hang outs to my employers. Nothing like being at the comic shop and getting called to work...
B) Parents who had no problem volunteering me to work
C) A manager who felt any thing and very thing should be dropped for work. "I got an exam tomorrow and I'd like to study." "So what? I need you, get your ass in here now!"
D) Coworkers who would call in sick so they could attend...Guess who got called to pick up those shifts.
