job problem

[thispego]

I'll be the guy who'll pull you back to reality.

Please do

Reality is good to me, for the most part.

[pawe]

you're probably twice my age, too. I'll be looking down on you from my pedestal when I'm 50. , when I'm 40.... just payin my dues in the mean time

Im 30. It's just my 5th yr here in the USA. So, I have to establish a life, learn to speak english properly, build up my credit score, register a business name, get a house, paid off my entry level (cheapest mb model) c class mercedes with reiger setup in 2 yrs (2005 model paid off 2007).
I gave you a 20 yr headstart and you still lag behind.

I dont care if Im bragging but you are one of the ST members I find to be so rude and ruthless to people who dont deserve it.

You will not amount into anything if you keep on doing what you are doing right now, trust me. Know the future consequences of your actions and maybe, you can find a job that you can be thankful for instead of ing and insulting a worker who only based his decision on dumbass things you did. It's all about at ude, you are not en led to anything.

Earning minimum wage at 27.......someone should go sit with jacob on the suicide tree.

What do you do, may I ask?

Do you know what I'm doing right now?

I would have never thought, in a million years, that speeding tickets would prevent future employment.

I'm thankful for every job I have and have had.

Speeding is a dumbass thing? I dont really think so, but to each his own.

I am en led when I've been busting my ass at tough but necessary jobs. Not everyone is capable or willing to do what I do right now and my residential treatment center, you, too, should not be so quick to judge.

I've only recently started earning minimum wage because I wanted to gain experience in the field I want to have a career in. at RTC's you never work there for the money,

need advice from the smart people on spurstalk only, please, thank you.

I hope you're not one of those re s that causes the San Antonio area to look like a ing Reynosa derby.
speeding.


Just don't speed. As far as your job problem goes, wait for the point deduction and then apply for the same opening or of course, a different one.

Be patient.

[Dex]

the logic didnt let me down, it still holds true. set aside $2 a day and you can pay for your speeding tickets and hike in insurance and drive as fast as you want, anywhere you want. it's airtight

Yes, and no.

Sure, that $2 a day may cover the initial fine of the speeding ticket. But it's probably not going to cover the additional penalties levied once you get enough points on your record, the hiked insurance rates, and (apparently) lost employment opportunities, etc...

I live in Lubbock, crazy thing is, for all the speeding tickets I have, I never got 2 in the same county. They are all highway speeding tickets, I'm on the road a lot of can get in a bit of a hurry with my lead foot, but I'm working on it. Only 1 speeding ticket in the last 2 years but 3 in 2009

[thispego]

i started a thread on it a while back

[Axe Murderer]

[Dex]

My brother had to deal with it; Sounds like a load of crap. I'm just glad I fortunately got enough of my tickets dismissed to not have to worry about toeing that line.

yeah, Canyon Lakes, you want a job? we need big dudes

[Axe Murderer]

yep, had I known about it, I would have taken a couple more defensive driving classes. Also, had I know about the employment problems, I would have taken a few more defensive driving classes also and wiped a couple speeding tickets from my record. If only I knew then what I know now.

LOL BUMP working at a daycare? I would have never dreamed

Well, Canyon Lakes is always looking so lemme know.

that is your whole problem right there. you are not en led to damn thing in this world except death. you pick your path with the decision's you make. you choose to speed. you choose to break the law. how is a company going to hire you and TRUST in you to follow their laws when you can't even follow the crap thats posted on signs on the side of the road? also, excessive speeding tickets could cause you to loose your CURRENT job. yeah might have "paid your dues" in your opinion, but, that may not be the views of other people within a company. also, i wonder about your history of disciplinary issues at your current job. you sure do seem quick to blame other people for your poor decision making abilities.

I work in the healthcare field. I started working 17 hrs/day monday-saturday and 8 hrs sunday for 2 whole years so I know what you mean by hauling ass..BUT I did not complain, I did not insult anyone because even with me getting physically and mentally getting tired, I still dont have any idea what a real "busting my ass" really feels like.
One good tip I can give you that I learned overtime:
Work smart not hard.

Speeding is a "dumbass thing" for me because if I got ticketed for a speeding ticket, I would've not gotten my green card approved. Actually, anything negative you do will delay you 1-2 yrs in getting your paperworks done so of course, you cant work if you dont have legal papers.

If you cant get into a job that you wanted then it, get another one..one that doesnt involve anything that prevented you from getting the job you wanted.
Dont be afraid of stepping out of your comfort zone.
Work in a hospital, start the lowest tier and while working, apply for education help. They usually promote internally anyway.

I have a degree in computer science and magically ended up in healthcare...i got promoted internally. Im a living example.

i have a flawless work history and I highly encourage any prospective employer to contact ALL of my former employers to ask about me. If they actually took the time to do so, every place I applied would hire me. I bust my ass bro, whether it's for minimum wage or for 60k a year.

Once I complete my Masters I can sit pretty with my 6 figure salary and laugh at the people who didnt hire me

my (past) propensity to speed really shouldnt matter, in my opinion. But yes, when you look at a group of applicants and only have their driving records in front of you, I may not look like the best option. Their loss for being so shortsighted.

That's really cool, I salute you. 17 hour days m-s and 8 hours on sunday for two years really is "busting your ass" in my opinion. You deserve what you have today, I have no doubt.

the difference in opinion is that I'm a US born citizen, and you're not, you've been walking on egg s s as far as the law goes since you've been here. I've been flauting the law since i was in highschool just because that's what kids do here. I never got in any major trouble, but i drank underage and I sped. Many have done much worse.

If I had your same motivations to not break the law, then i'd probably be in a lot better shape at this point in regards to this issue.
