Thats a hard situation. I doubt the law extends to “emergency” situations like that. It’s just part of working in kitchens. Dishmachines break and fuck up everyone’s day.
Now I have to go make sure my dish machine is functioning properly.
I have no idea what the actual law would be, but that definitely seems like what their first defense would be if it got challenged. "We were just trying to make do." "It was temporary." That kind of thing. If it extends longer, it would be a different thing as they had time to prepare and plan accordingly.
Edit: abrakapokus was a restaurant person so she may be able to shed some light on it even if it's a different state.
Yeah. I’m lucky to be in a nursing home kitchen and not a restaurant in respect to the wage thing. There’s a couple of my part timers that get dicked because they cover a prep shift on the weekends and don’t get paid a cooks wage. I’ve told them to make a stink because it’s not okay but they don’t.
I’m also the supervisor that would send you the fuck home if you said you weren’t going to hand wash the dishes when the dish machine broke. That would put you firmly in the “Not gonna last” column.
the weird thing is I was doing both at the same time but they paid me for the lesser one

I don't mind doing extra work at all. I just wanted to be paid for it.
Although there's still some time, I started packing up my desk in my office, and I will start packing my apartment tonight. I'm celebrating (?) this occasion with some 10-year-old Ardbeg, which is a gift from a close friend.

Hey folks, I've been doing a song of the day email listing for the past few months to 49 people. I've turned it into a blog this morning. If anyone is interested in subscribing, the web address is decaanter.wordpress.com/ I know many of you know much more about music than I do, but if anyone is into getting a maybe new, maybe old song every day, just let me know. Or just subscribe to the thing. Or don't. Thanks!
Is it weird that my first thought was, wow how do you find someone that shares your love of killing and eating people. There really is someone for every person.

I guess the same way you find out if your S.O. is into bondage/swinging/furry/or whatever freak shit they are into. It probably starts with...I really hate that dude. If I could kill him I would...Just joking, unless you are into that.
I understand fully why folks shouldn't adamantly celebrate the life of Hugh Hefner... but at the same breath without Playboy; without even shittier people like Larry Flynt: we would still be living in an openly sexually repressive society. I GET 100% the feelings and ethical evaluation on sexuality *via magazines, video, etc.* having a direct toll on women's bodies and image; but it also highlighted a break from a prudish non-secular worldview. Not important really - but it's interesting how people say fuck this guy, while others wax poetic about other idols with severe life choice issues... Sorry John Lennon and Woody Allen.

Dear Wal-Mart, I realize it was an innocent mistake on the part of your self checkout attendant, but if I was gonna steal from you a) I would do it in a way where you wouldn't catch me and b) it would be something way more valuable than a $7 box of store brand trash bags.
This week I went kayaking for the 1st time (while chaperoning 12 fifth graders)... I also lead my first lesson for our Let Me Run boys' running team. I've assisted through a whole season previously, but have never lead a group of kids myself before. I was nervous for both of these events but feeling proud of stepping out of my comfort zone right now.
I remember absolutely loving this song when it came out, bc it referenced Star trek and I was a nerd. (Star wars is better ftr, Dave Maynar)
Anyways I'd cometely forgotten about this till I moved to AZ. They were from here, and the lead singer has a new band and is a total hometown celebrity. His new band throws a music fest in Mexican beach town two or three times a year, and it is immensely popular. AZ loves it's hometown bands (gin blossoms, Jimmy eat world, meat puppets) and they all for well with my own musical tastes through the years. Gin blossoms recorded their second album in Memphis at Ardent ( big star!) And so they got a lot of air play growing up. The guy who plays guitar in my shizty garage band used to live in a guest house, and we were talking to the owner over beers at bar apologizing foraking a racket, and he casually says "no biggie, when [lead singer of gin blossoms] lived there it was always loud. When he moved out I had to repaint the whole place because he wrote his lyrics in sharpie on the walls".
Sorry, I'm feeling big n buzzy and the wife is out at a show and I can't find drunk rambling thread
