  • Since you’re working at a place for rich people, there are likely people there who are above the rules. Those types are typically pretty petty and vindictive. You probably had to enforce policy against one of them and they complained and said they want you fired. It doesn’t matter that you were following the rules, those types don’t have rules enforced against them and anyone who does so will be punished. You will never be given the real reason. The person who complained will be all nice and smiles to your face, and then go behind your back and get you fired.

    That’s pure speculation and might not have any basis in reality, but I encountered something similar working in a swanky place before.

    Whatever the cause, file unemployment for the month they didn’t schedule you, and find a new job ASAP. It’s miserable working where there are rules, and then unspoken rules for certain people who have more money.














  • I bought a pair of vegan leather shoes a couple years ago that were made from cactus skin and were touted as being as long lasting and versatile as leather. Bull-fucking-shit, man! I have 10 year old leather boots that are still in great condition despite constant heavy wear. I wore those shoes only a couple times per week for about 4 months and the “leather” started falling apart. I’d love to see a leather replacement that is as good as leather, or almost as good, but cheaper. So far all of the replacements have been considerably worse and cost as much or more money. Hopefully these mushrooms end up working out.
