Backround: About a year and a half ago, I somehow managed to snag a job at 14, washing dishes for a popular Italian restaurant.

Backround: About a year and a half ago, I somehow managed to snag a job at 14, washing dishes for a popular Italian restaurant. I worked for around 3 ½ – 4 months, working Wednesdays and Fridays from 4 to 9 every week. I was paid $12 an hour and was respected by my fellow Co workers for working hard and not skipping days.

One week, I asked if I could get a day off to hang out with friends on their birthday, as it fell on a Friday.

Next weeks schedule I worked 3 days a week instead of two, which I thought was fair at the time, and worked through it.

The next week however, I was put on the schedule for 3 days again and flipped the hell out. Every small break I got, I ranted in the employee group chat about everything and complained about the extra day.

One of the managers, a tall dog faced lady took me out back and fired me. She even said I couldn't be on the property anymore.

To be fair I did say some intense things, but I was a tiny 14 year old whos scared of butterflys and was obviously harmless.

BTW, my final check was 2 weeks late
