I QUIT!!!

The math of it all finally got to me:

At Subway, I made $300 per month, we spent $20 more on gas every two weeks, and i hated every moment of it.

Selling stuff on Ebay, I made between $350 and $800 per month. We spent less money on gas, and I bitched much much less than I do now.

Other bad things about working the Subway Sandwich circuit:

-I smell of sandwich, all the time.

-I work around succulent, fresh-baked bread (I'm on the Atkins diet)

-My boss is a skinny, balding, short man who drives a HUGE, BLACK, JACKED-UP Pickup Truck that I assume he has named something like "Doomcock".

-I get reminded several times a day that I need to say "Would you LIKE to make that a meal with chicps and a drink" instead of asking "Do you WANT to make that a meal by adding chips and a drink".

-I had to PAY for my polyester uniform, and I get to keep it. Oh joy.

-I never had time to update my LiveJournal.


So tomorrow is my last day of working in that Hell Hole (Note: I just got done typing a list of about 20 negative descriptive words for Subway, but in the end decided that 'Hell Hole' summed it up rather nicely). I plan to go out with class. i plan to be the best employee that i can be. Adn then I just might head out to the parkinglot and key the owners Doomcock.

GIVE 'EM HELL!!

Selling on Ebay is the EASIEST THING IN THE WORLD! All you need is some time and a credit card! See, you won't get any *serious* bids on stuff till you've got a feedback rating of at least 25, which means you should buy 25 things on Ebay before you try to sell stuff.

Or you could consign your stuff to an experienced seller like myself, who will take 20% of your profit plus all listing costs (listing costs usually come to about a dollar). I'd b more than happy to try and sell stuff for you, if you like... but you'd have to send the stuff to me first so I can inspect it and give a detailed description in the auction listing!

Stuff i sell is usually 80's and 90's toys. If it has a Care Bear, Alf, or an Ewok on it, I can get good money for it!

I never thought about the cruelty of being constantly taunted by fresh bread. And I can't believe they make you buy your uniform! AND correcting your choice of words - it's not even a grammar issue! Bastards!

I hope you did take a moment to damage Doomcock. Grats on fleeing subway. I sold stuff on Ebay now and then but then I ran outta stuff to sell and not enough time to garage sale/thrift store hope for more... good luck. I'll peek at ebay and see what you're sellin :D
