You got some good advice from others about not burning bridges with employers. Sometimes it would feel very good to do that. But good recommendations and references are nice things to have, especially when you're just entering the work force.

this kind of work aint hard to come by
you know how many food workers there are
you might be the one runnin' the show
but that dont mean you;re in charge.
i got to tell you birdgirl...
hell would freeze over before i ever took a job making food for rich kids.
my advice to this cat?
learn a skill/trade, do it well, and set your own rules.
i dont think he'll learn much at a food joint others than how to place the onion before the tomato, but after the lettuce. wowie.
Some might say, well, he/she will get good experience working with people and dealing with different situations when it comes to dealing with costumers.
but, i wouldnt say that.

Daima, I'll say one thing for you. You're never short on poetic/lyrical style. And you're a cat with attitude.
I'm glad you're not going to build sandwiches for any rich, organic-eating deli customer kids. I agree that skills and trades are good things to acquire, but I still know an awful lot of kids who do time in the food service industry to earn some cash while they're training for their vocations. I was certainly one of them when I was his age. I was waiting tables and running the cash register at a barbecue place while I was spending my days learning things at college. Didn't you ever work a restaurant job as a young man? I know not everyone's meant to do that sort of thing--and not everyone learns much from it. But that sorta work did teach me a thing or two when I was on my way up. Frankly, restaurant work was good prep for being a wife and mother (a domestic waitress).
Much love and light to you, Daima![SIZE=\"4\"]\"That best portion of a good man\'s life: his little, nameless, unremembered acts of kindness and love.\"[/SIZE]

I'd give the 2week notice, but being you havent worked there long and I doubt your going to use it as a reference, I'd either do a one week'r or wait till the buisness is having a suck day, really busy, or if your manager is being an upfront ass to you. :thumbsup:

As someone else has already said, "don't burn your bridges" . Always be professional when quitting a job. Don't steal, be an ass, or do anything stupid to get yourself fired. The world can be a very small place and you never know who you'll run into 10 years down the road.
True, you'll probably not need this job for a future resume. Bit you never know how something could come back and haunt you. You may hate the job and not take it seriously.The guy working next to you, however, just might. Some day he might be sitting on the other side of a desk from you, with your resume in hand.
"Hey, you look familiar to me. Have I met you before? Wait, I know! You worked in the organic grocery with me 10 years ago. You were the guy who did (insert mornic action here) and got fired. Thank you for coming Mr. Black Water Park but I don't think you're what we're looking for."
