So i'm qutin my job tomorrow..

who remebers that thread about my manager not giving me my raise? well tomarow i'm ending it all this is my idea, and hopefully it works:
get the manager in there who iv been talking about my raise with and be like:
me-So hows my riase coming along?
him-oh well iv been checking on it and so far nothing
me- Yea?
him-yea...
me-well, don't worry about it.
him-why?
me- cause i quit.

oh? But what happens if he says he gave it to you?
"meh, I quit"

:)

I atleast gotta see saw 3 befor i do it.

Good luck, but remember quitting becomes a habit. You may quit more things in the future

it is america, if you wanna quit, quit. I mean seriously it is a movie theater. Quiting that job at the age of 17 is not going to ruin your life. It sounds like you are being treated like crap, and you don't have to take it, or worry about what other people think.

If you apply for a job in the future and they call the theater and the theater gives them a bad refrence regarding you, you could sue the movie theater for doing that.

my bad i didn't even pay attention to ur age. quitting w/o notice more than likely wont hurt u in the future. but y bring urself down to their level and quit on them just b/c they treated u bad.

see that's one of the problems with this country nobody wants to do something b/c it's right. they just want to do something that makes themself feel good.

I'm pretty sure places you list as a reference aren't supposed to say you did a good or bad job, but if they say good things it's never bad.

They are supposed to confirm that you worked there, and that's about it. I think...

If you used them for future reference, but your two week notice It a common courtesy to do so.

But, if you do NOT used them for any future reference. Well, tell them to screw it
