If your employer called you over the phone and said you were fired, not laid off, effective immediately, totally caught off guard
And you have searched for another job for close to several months and your personal savings was drying up
Yet at this time the burger joint down the street always had an open position for you to work , but the only thing was that you would always see people you knew there from school, work, family etc. They would be paying you minimum wage and crappy hours (low hours, 12-3 and 5-8 lets just say
How many of you would work there? And how many of you would not and hold out for longer, even though no employment which was as respected or high paying as your previous job can be seen in any immediate future?
Im curious bc there is some serious "flipping burger if u need to" mentality here

You could always sell your used posing trunks on ebay.

if ur on uneployment and it pays more than this job offers ,,,stay on uneployment work off the books until u find the job u want or close to what u were making....no burger job is going to pay more than uneployment esp in jersey unless u work 65-70 hrs a wk,,,,

Thats why i threw in the whole fired aspect, so people cant work the system and get paid for doing nothing
If you are fired u get no unemployment checks
And btw this isnt about me, LOL

Well lets just say that unemployment was not an option (which it isnt for a lot of college graduates since they never held real jobs) so it is a bit of reality
The name of the game here is flip burgers or dont take the job and plunge deeper into debt
-
Parents own a real good burger joint they pay well. They have employees for up to 10 years. If you're a full time cook you make great money. My parents are prob the fairest buisness people I know. So it depends on what kind of place. I wouldn't work at mcdonalds though.
-
You're a fucking idiot. Get a job at the burger place and sell drugs out of it and steal money from the cash. Purposely don't ring up orders and pocket the money.
-
I'd rather do home invasions and car jackings than flip burgers.
Damn, I see why the ghetto boyz do what they do now. Thanks for the thought experiment.

well then they do whatever it takes to get by time being,,,,

I would do whatever it took to keep income flowing.
I have no shame.
I don't knock anyone who works for a living. Even if they are the Greeter at Walmart, they have my respect for working for a living.

For a lot of people they wouldnt be able to get any kind of desk job with theft on their record, so that option is moot
But selling drugs and stealing money becomes appealing as shown in todays economy, even corporations are doing massive layoffs but the CEOs are making hundreds of millions in bonuses per year
-
If I got laid off I would work anywhere
-
With a kid on the way I'd work whatever came my way but I'd be actively working my resume for better positions.
Of course anyone with any hustle at all never has to work a burger joint.

Depends if uneemployment sides with you. I know two people that this has happened to...
Anyways, I would work the burger joint---plus you get to eat there?
Hell yeah. There is nothing embarassing about a legal honest job...I've always worked, and I've had some trifling ass jobs.

Show us your moms Tits or fuck off burgerboy
Hahahaha you beat me to it

There is honor in all work. There is only dishonor with slackers looking for someone else to take care of them.

If this person was fired in that fashion then chances are they deserved it. Being laid off when you're qualified and capable and haven't performed poorly is a different situation. Regardless of the economic climate bad employees won't last. Perhaps a minimum wage job would be sobering, helpful experience for this person....a needed wake up call perhaps.

I`ll tell you what,if the bill collectors are knocking on your door,and your fucking starving,and baby needs a new pair of shoes,you`ll be a burger flippin` mother fucker ! :D

Lol if I was younger than 22 yes, I'm almost 25 I'd never work anywere with a bunch of jailbait.
But in general I would flip burgers those kinds of jobs are fun for a while, no responsibility, etc etc.
I work at a 7/11 gas bar atleast until tuesday, the job is easy as shit, basically get payed to stand and activate pumps.
I love the job, minus the fact i gotta work 30 plus hours a week, while in school.

People should do what they have to do. There is no shame in flipping burgers to support yourself if that is what it takes. I could probably go for 2-3 years without work before I had to start thinking in those terms, but if I were in that position and it came to that, I’d flip the burger.

True story...
8th grade geography, our teacher's name was Mr. Boley. Great old guy. We had this one know it all chick named Rhonda who looked down on everybody. Even tried to argue trivial matters with Mr. Boley. One day he finally lost it and said, "Rhonda, you DON'T know everything there is to know!!"
Fast forward about 20 years. I worked late one night and promised the wife I would bring home supper for the family. I stopped at Burger King of all places, and who was the cashier? You guessed it, Know It All Rhonda.
My first instinct was to say, "You know you always wanted my 'whopper' and now I want yours...with cheese and ketchup only. Mr Boley was right about you after all. That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!!"
But I was compassionate. I placed my order, and like Baptists in a liquor store, we pretended we didn't recognize each other.

Or robbing mofos. :D

I have no issue with working hard for little money when truly broke.
This would be hard though.......
but the only thing was that you would always see people you knew there from school, work, family etc. They would be paying you minimum wage and crappy hours (low hours, 12-3 and 5-8 lets just say
I try not to worry about what others think, but that would be a tough one for my ego.
It would be a different story if I had a child to feed.....wouldn't give a fuck what anyone thought anymore. I don't have offspring though, so different situation.

Exactly.
But in this hypothetical situation we have to make the burger or die? Alrighty then, I'll make the burger.

You can't get unemployment if they fired you with a good reason. I beleive that is what the OP meant.

X2 a job is a job.

I once made burger patties at home and then realized I forgot to get hamburger buns, so I cooked the burger and put it between a couple slices of bread. Within 48 hours I had grown a mullet & goatee, was living in a trailer, my car wouldn't start, and my children all had crewcuts and two first names. Now I eat hamburger helper 4x a week.

That's less redneck than using regular bread for burgers? :-\

mmmm sloppy joes
I got a beating over sloppy joes when I was 11. We were at my grandmother's house one day and she was making sloppy joes. My dumbass cousin Mark was trying to be funny and said, "They're not called Sloppy Joes...they're called Neat Michaels." Nobody laughed and I called him a pha gg ot. That earned me a beating, but it was worth it (because he cried like a bitch).

Look what the crooks at Wall street are doing to the globe and come up with a better plan. If you have a wife and kids, it makes life that much tougher...But if you don't have kids or a wife, take 30 days to come up with the best plan your mind can come up with. Just don't hurt/kill the innocent. And don't use your own computer to find ways to make easy money ;)

fact is, doing something whatever you do makes you feel better than doing nothing. We re programmed to contribute to our specie, if we dont we feel useless, as simple as that.
