    Late opening door.

    Very responsible behavior, and professional, what was their real reason?

    Advice got hired for one position now I'm being told I'm doing something else.

    Perhaps the reassignment is in the best business interest need. Ride it out, play the game.

    Offer Received Then No Longer Considered

    Call the store HR, may have been a mistake. OP do you have ANYTHING on your record that would trigger observation short of minor traffic bullshit? Curious, do they run Trans Unions or FICO's? Both of mine are well into the low 800s and appeared when adjusting my car insurance policy...

    Changes to dress code

    Can't believe I'm reading this infantile bullshit re. what to wear. We were khaki and red. Everyone complied. No bitching. It worked. It's easy. It's affordable. It looked good.

    Changes to dress code

    Above. Nothing wrong with that. I got a nice set of screwdrivers for 2 bucks at G W. Will go there today to check it out, same mall as my favorite Dollar Store. I'm a tight ass. Flying G-A ain't cheap.

    Calling off during the 90 day period, what can I expect?

    Iff, re the OP if you need the job do the job and stop screwing around. You're a kid and have a lot to learn. It's a pretty decent gig, an experience builder and if you pay attention you may learn something. Admit fault, take what chances they are giving you and give 125%,

    Are most stores lenient on attendance?

    I missed some time due to two surgeries, minor outpatient, a few days off for each. I explained what was going on and did NOT get a Dr. note. I refused to get one, they never asked for one anyway. Had they asked, I would have told them to call the doc office. WTF, Jr High School crap?

    Are most stores lenient on attendance?

    All this shit depends on who you are. Draw conclusions, use your imagination. I won't specify HOW you are coddled and protected. Conversely HOW and why one gets fired. It's very subjective.

    Teenagers

    I learned early and played the market (my father did the legwork) I supplied the funds when I was in my mid teens. Mowed lawns, washed cars, picked weeds, worked in a dry cleaners, strung tennis racquets at a mom and pop local sporting goods store. Kids need to work, anything, dirty jobs...

    Teenagers

    Keep them away from the phones. After school activities. Sports. Football, girls sports for them, track, clubs, just get them OFF social media.
