I've been working at a grocery store for 5 years. I hate it. its the worst.

I ended up quitting because of the circumstances I was put in by my co-workers. I think I told that story here in a past OT, long story short the staff abused the fact that I was on 30 days before getting union benefits and took a lot of "smoke breaks" leaving all the work for me.

 

[Attleborotaco]

No I understand that but taco saying that im not trying at all is whats pissing me off.

Look, i'm just saying you could be doing more than just dropping off an application and hoping for the best. Everyone does that. The people who call after that are the ones who the managers are going to look at more.

Getting a Job and working is a hell a lot easier than school most of the time. I really should study soon, I NEED to finish this test this week, by Thursday and then I need to catch up with 2 chapters before I take another test.

 

[zedreamcast]

But have you called any of them?

No but i have no idea how to call them and ask, do I just call and ask "oh may I talk with the manager?" Or something like that?

 

[TechnicaUS]

The quiet guy, Kellim or Kellen?

Oh no! That dude's a damn monster! That's quite a loss.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

No but i have no idea how to call them and ask, do I just call and ask "oh may I talk with the manager?" Or something like that?

No man, just take a few minutes to sit down and call a few places you applied to, it should go something like this.

You: Hello, I sent in an application for -insert job name here- 2 days ago and I was wondering if you had a chance to look over it/
Employer: Not yet, I've been quite a few applications, but I'll look over it as soon as possible! I'll mark down that you inquired about it as well. (That's what you want to hear)
You: Okay, thank you, have a good day.
Employer: You too.

Also, online applications, and look for easier and cheap jobs.

Most places have a hiring manager. Call and ask if the hiring manager is in.

 

[AngryCanadian]

He isn't saying you are not trying, he is saying there is more you can be doing.

Sushi's description of the call is pretty spot on. Talk to a manager or a HR person if they have one.

 

[DoktorEvil]

Guess I'm going to restart.

"Hello, I submitted an application _____ days ago. I would like to know if a manager has had a chance to review it yet."

I dunno comparing me to the protagonist of freddy got fingered seems a bit like hes saying im not trying at all.
Especially since people have gotten jobs without doing that.

You don't have to, almost anyone from awakening is usable and good, the children units are the ones you should be using. So no need to lose everything you've done so far.

If anyone ever compares you to a Tom Green character just take it as as much of a joke as Tom Green himself is.

 

[TechnicaUS]

You don't really need to. You get more people that can cover the loss.

Well I had to restart anyways. I lost the pegusus unit… -_-

Ugh. She's probably my least favorite girl in the game. She's really useful early on though, so that may be best.

Impossible. My mega milk senses would of started to tingle.

That crazy waterbed tits gif?

Okay now, even that gif creeps me out

 

[CthulhuSushi]

All right, you know what? Fuck this, I'm not accepting this. I'm not going to re-do an entire fucking year just because of attendance issues. Gonna dedicate the majority of my free time into my studies and shove that shit into the exam committee's face.

Gonna see whether I can take this higher up. I'm sick of this shit.

Hell yeah! Fuck the system!

Impossible. My mega milk senses would of started to tingle.

It damaged my soul.

It worries me that you knew exactly what I was talking about.

Nah, totally happened. Jack found a cat version and everything.

Yeah then that may be a good idea.
Kellam was one of my best units aside from MC and before chapter 13-14, he is a big lose.
I like using Pegasus knights as well, even though they may be weak in many situations.

maybe try to play the game without permadeath. Chances are you are just going to save scum when you lose a unit anyway.

INB4 lul casual, I beat FE7 back in the day

No you love it tho

 

[CthulhuSushi]

Not...exactly. I have good enough grades, but might get held back a year due to certain issues. I can't afford that though and while I don't know what I can do to combat that decision, there has to be a way.

If your grades are good enough, and you explain your situation you should be fine as long as your school committee aren't soulless assholes.

If it doesn't affect the story and I don't miss anything major, I want to avoid save scumming as much as possible.

I'm going into FE fresh. I want to feel some feels after losing a very important unit.

 

[CthulhuSushi]

If I couldn't build up the self restraint to do this without banning myself, I might as well not try.
Woof...you'd be surprised.

Well..hopefully it all works out for you.

YO WHAT.

WHAT.

WHAT?

WHAT THE FUCK.

IS THIS LEGIT?

 

[TechnicaUS]

I didn't find Kellam to be too good and he didn't stay in my party too long. You can easily manage without him.

You can, yeah, but he really is a powerhouse as the game goes on. I think he may have one of the highest str growth rates in the game. I could be wrong though.

Is there a possiblity that the committee's decision won't change?
Wish you the best of luck.

 

[DAREALGUMMY]

I'm not the one you need to justify yourself to, if it's a smart idea you believe in, then it doesn't need to be justified to anyone except yourself.

However, I personally don't think it's wise.

I respect your choice, there is a lot more I want on PS4 than I do on Wii U. Maybe the Wii u will have a bundle or price drop or something by the time you want to go back.
