Worked at a midwestern sporting goods chain while in S and junior college. Made nothing, but ha a lot of fun while there.After 2 1/2, almost 3 years there, started to get antsy about my future, and its was summer. I like summer. So I put in 2 weeks notice, as you are told you should do as a young worker. Give 2 weeks on a Thursday or Friday night, next work day is the following Sunday. On Sunday they liked to have unpaid team meeting 30 mins prior to shift start, 45 prior to opening. I show up late as I had ongoing transportation problem which management knew about and blessed off on. The duty manager (Who never liked me anyway because I wasnt serious enough about my part time job…) calls me into the office after the meeting and tells me I’m fired and to leave. Even has security there on standby. I said “Uhhh…what?” She replies “Ever since you put in your notice your attitude has scked and youre always late…” I was the only one in my department that day. Spring/summer weekend days were our most crazy and busiest. I looked out the window, it was a beautiful spring day, not a cloud in the sky. Customers were already lining up outside the doors. I said “Cool…see ya…” and ankled.

I spent the day and a good chunk of the summer hanging out, doing not much of anything, thanks to the $3.5k profit sharing check I got a few months later. Thanks Judy, you knucklehead…
