I went to job interview Tuesday. Friend who drove me waited an hour in car. Few things that just gave me bad vibes was them just firing a guy right there. Interviewer directly tells me he had to let him go for lateness, then proceeds to say how only two original people are left of shop employees when he took over and changing things. So than he leaves. I wait 15 minutes for shop supervisor to come in. Walk around shop everyone just looks miserable. So anyhow, I put my desired pay as certain range of 17 to 18. Pretty standard pay for warehouse. He said, “Well you want this but I can do 16.50, I don't want to pay someone more if they turn out to be not worth that” I counter with well after 90 days than we can reconvene. He agrees and said than I'll give you that fifty cents. Than later about commuting they say don't know if can hire me b.c. I commute by bicycle and that will make me late. Anyway I get hired. Go out to car. Friend says he can't take me to start TODAY. Which means it's a 6am wake up to ride bicycle like 15 miles to get there. I was just miserable. I have an interview I just got for a dishwasher job closer to home. I think I will just email them 3 hours before start time to thank them for opportunity but no thank you. I am scared because rent is due in three weeks, but I know this job will be misery I don't want. I will go to dishwasher interview tomorrow. I'm sorry that my friend had to waste time waiting on car. I'll apologize. Sorry to write a story. Am I doing the right thing?
EDIT: He said I could get that .50 if no lateness and a top performer.
