Because this is exactly what happened to me. But I had an interview. I think they were just dicks. Your story sounds like my story! Did you work at Frankie and Bennys in the o2?!

Seriously, I thought it was by some drama queen teenage girl. Why is it that the employee is always so hard working, cheerful, goes above and beyond, and yet nobody ever appreciates it? I've known a lot of hard working teens over the years and they're always appreciated, because they're such a rare commodity. Petty and vindictive are ugly traits to have, regardless of gender.

Spare future individuals from having to endure or eat at said cafe, but I guess that would make me a petty and "thick" person ;-) If I was treated so shoddily at a job, I’d give it bad reviews too.

I had a job like that when I was in college. I left to go to back to school and called my old food service job and found out that the management had changed. I just told them not to worry about it and the last time I heard anything out of them was when I got my wage information to file taxes. As for LisaJuly-You were 16 and I have no idea how old you are now but I think that you did pretty well under pressure for being a teenager. I work with juvenile criminal offenders so I'm happy to see he at least was doing something productive with his time.

As he said, he enjoyed having the money & sometimes no money is worse than whatever crap is given at work. Eh, I can understand why he’d want to come back.

Lots of employers who pay hourly only pay for time scheduled-- why'd you always show up 15 minutes early, knowing you wouldn't be paid for it? If it was such a shitty job, why'd you keep trying to return, after they told you you weren't needed for a while? Finally-- the spitefulness demonstrated by giving them 1-star user ratings makes you seem petty & viscous, all things considered.

Lots of employers who pay hourly only pay for time scheduled– why’d you always show up 15 minutes early, knowing you wouldn’t be paid for it?

If it was such a shitty job, why’d you keep trying to return, after they told you you weren’t needed for a while?

Finally– the spitefulness demonstrated by giving them 1-star user ratings makes you seem petty & viscous, all things considered.

That just sounds like kind of a janky place to work for, regardless. :/ I agree with BikeLizard, they’re the ones who chose to hire you as a favor for your dad without giving you an interview.
