Dont worry the manager will take your money and give it to Bernie Madoff to invest for you :Very Happy

If your due overtime make sure you see it written on the OT sheet. Add your pay number and sign it or you might as well get used to working for free! Its safe to assume that ALL linos are thieving scum and will try to screw you over if you dont watch them like a hawk.
