BIG decision! What would you do? What job would you take? Help!!?
-
Ok, I had a job at a Hot Dog Shop, I get about 32hrs there and make $7.25..the boss always calls me in and my family is very good friends with the owners but then I got a job offer from Cedar Point (a giant amusement park) in the games department PROMISED no less then 40hrs a week making $7.30. It's two hours away so I have to live in the dorms up there ($35 a week). Well I ended up taking the cedar point job and it's not really what I expected. I hate the job and want out of the department..I have to work 120hrs in games before I can transfer out into a diff department but at this rate it's going to take awhile..I'm getting 22.5hrs max. Not to mention they told me it could take a few weeks to get a transfer approved. I also have crazy roommates in my dorm that I do not get along with at all. I'm thinking about quitting and going bk home (the hot dog shop owner said she would take me bk) but all these ppl I talk to talk about the great experiences they have at cedar point. I just don't want to make the wrong decision..I finally got caught up on my car payments and can't go backwards. What would you do? Thank you!

Answer:
You were promised 40 hours and you are getting 22.5 and paying $35 to rent a dorm room and living with people you can't stand. I would go back home and work for 32 hours and sleep in my own bed without roommates I can't stand. This is a lesson that you learned that companies are not always what they claim they are. You always hear about applicants lying on their resumes, but employers are not always upfront with prospective employees either.

I am not aware about the job experiences at Cedar Point. But comparing the two jobs it is better if you go back to Hot Dog Shop. There your net take home will be more than at Cedar point. Also you are not having job satisfaction at Cedar Point so it is better to go back.
wow i would like to work at cedar point but its too far from my house. I bet its super easy and i would keel it. Its a good idea to ask for more hours and say why did you promise me 40 hours then now short me every week.
