Couple weeks ago i decided to put in more hours then i was allowed to, My job only allowed less than 30 hours which is about 200 or 240 dollars per week. To me if the paycheck is over 200 like say 230 240 then im getting in some good hours but when i got 3 days off the day after the long shift, i felt like i was going to lose something. Later after the 2 days off i than decided to jump onto my boring computer and decided to jump on Kai. shortly after the Kai engine loaded the screen came up and all the sudden i seen this http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/8716/kaigoesblankbz9.jpg
i than refreshed the url hoping for the blankness to go away which happened to not work.
Later on i decided to give up on trying to fix the problem (20 mins into fixing the problem hoping that the fonts folder wasn't deleted) walked across the street where i work and decided to purchase a monster energy drink 16oz. I had asked the crasher (my manager) to find out why im getting the 3 days off, He answered "A lot of scratch tickets are missing, you will be getting less time to work here." So i asked him if he was joking with me. He had looked away hoping i would walk out of the store without questioning him.
Next day comes around, give the main Boss a call to find out what exactly is going on to see if I'm either getting fired or getting some time off to see if i would admit that i had stolen the tickets. Finally get a hold of him after leaving a short message hoping for a return call, 4 hours passes by get a call saying i will no long get anymore hours, so i asked him what is all going on, Boss replies "Come to the store so we can talk about what is going on OK?." i said to him no problem. hits 2 pm I come to the store and i see him walking into the store with me with another employee hoping that i wasn't going to be fired right on the spot.
Finally i get into the store after him greeting me with his great smile, We head to the back room and he tells me to wait outside of his office. 10 mins after talking to one of my close co workers. boss calls me into his office, the co worker tells me to tell Boss sorry I than thought to myself, "wait sorry for what, I didn't doing anything wrong why the sorry" I tell my co-worker as i walked into the back room towards the office. (In my head im thinking, Please don't fire me please don't fire me, I need this job why would i still from a job that i really need.) I get into the office and i see the boss still talking to an employee i wait then he says to me come sit down after the employee shuts the door as she walks out. i sit and he tells me, "Do you want to work today." I say to him "Yes" he says would you like to work from 4 to 12 or yearly tomorrow at about 8 am to 12pm
I say to him, Both. He looks me down like as if im just a little kid with no hours. he says "how about 2 to 10 is that OK?" that's fine with me i said. he gets up and shacks my hand and starts walk out of the door then jumps to the other employee as if what he said to me was nothing. I start to head outside of the door and he calls me back into the store and asks me if i have a bank account. I tell him no because that's why im always cashing my check here, no other banks will cash a 3rd party check. so i head back to my house, get back onto the computer to find out what is causing the fonts to go blank. tried to change the language in the kaiconfig to something else, nothing happened, try restarting the engine, nothing, refreshed the page "WALLA!" finally it fixed.
Come to work after the excitement of kai going back to normal, get to work and ask the guy who told me that i was going to be losing hours. He ignores the question and asks me to fill up the cooler. 2 hours after completely stocking and refilling the cooler feeling ashamed of getting so many days off. He goes to eat while my co worker steps into his place as the main cashier. I ask my co worker why i got so many days off, he tells me that my manager screwed up on the scratch ticket count and was afraid to tell anyone because he might lose his hours. boss found the stolen scratches after 2 days seeing the shift change results.
What would you do if you were in my place? |

You know I try really hard to make my story very straight forward to prevent people from putting me down like as if i deserve it. Spending almost a hour into this whole story seemed to be pointless knowing all i get in return is regret. I guess Firefox spell checker really didn't do its job as most of the preferred people above who replied with negative reply other than Niko have recommended. |

OMG ROFL IRL XD Damn Mort you never cease so amaze me
Yeah firefox spell spell checker is shitty. i suggest typing a long ass thread as this one in word and spell checking it in there then posting.
So what i gather from ur post, u work at a gas station and lottery tickets were stolen by an employee and he was cutting your hours cuz he thought it was you that stole the tickets. He found out it wasnt you and found the tickets, scratched off (no winners i guess loll) and felt bad for accusing you and gave u more hrs.
Your excitement for kai being fixed was going to be shattered because of your anticipation of being disciplined but you werent in trouble so all is good. and u got to keep your job

-SA-[TT], thanks for sharing your story but, to be honest, it's hard to make out what you are driving at. You seem to be shifting thoughts mid-sentence. There's mention of Kai, scratch tickets, days off, shortened work-hours... I just can't make sense of it. What are you smoking?

Alright, it really isn't that hard to understand what he is saying. But TT, prestige is right, you are using fragmented sentences, jumping from one topic to another.
TT is saying that he was having a shit day.
He had been off work for three days, has nothing to do on the third day and decided to go on Kai. His Kai was acting gay and wasn't showing any text. Basically his day was starting off shit because he didn't know what was going on with why he was off work, or why his Kai was being retarded.
He then says that he gets the chance to talk with his boss about what is going on with his situation.. blah blah blah... gets new and longer work hours.. goes home and gets Kai fixed. His bad start to the day ended with a positive note. |

Not seeing text in the kaiui was a sign that something was going to happen.
The part where people are seeing that is hard to understand is the second day of having off where i was told that i will no long be getting any hours to the third day coming to work and being asked what time i would like to work.
In between day 2-3 is where the scratch tickets was found. The first day was them finding that the scratch tickets were missing or stolen.
The blankness in this whole story is jumping from thinking that I'll be losing my job to coming into work to find out what cause me to have so many days off then be asked when to work.
by the way, My boss, close co-worker and manager is not from united states, they're from India if that helps in anyway. |

I feel your pain, TT. It must be difficult to work with a colleague who has multiple personalities. Hope he has a hat for each of his job-functions? |
