Building that used to be called: Universal Foods. Then the building changed names to: Red Star. Then to Lesaffre Yeast Corp. Now the building is empty. Theres a huge lease sign out in front with a design template for what the building might look like.

Anyways, the reason for any upcoming people that say "quit" etc. Obviously haven't read my replys, and I don't want to get stressed over this with AT people again. Yall cause more stress than any job ever could :beer:

It seems to me that you should get a job closer to your school. Even it pays less.

Currently you are:
work for 2 hours = $20
1.5 hour commute = -$5
total = $15

If you got a $6 an hour job closer to you:
work for 3.5 hours = $21
10 minute commute = $-1
total = $20

Totally understandable.

Once more, my commute now is less than 15 minutes. I work for 3.5 hours making $10.00 an hour. I told my boss I refuse to work at the building that would force me to make the 1.5 hour commute. I got the boss to agree, and I also get to set up their website and get paid for it. So I think it's a win win, I didn't loose my job, and I don't have to drive very far to get there. Plus it fits my college schedule perfectly.

You've made this mistake multiple times in this thread, so I figure I should point it out.

You lose your job.

loose != lose

You can work on campus as student assistant and get same or higher pay.

get a different job or suck it up.

Is it wrong that I want to hit you in the face with a 2"x4"?

While he didn't word it correctly persay, he is totally valid in saying that the 80 mins he loses in commute end up bringing down the worth of his overall compensation.
