LOL!

My husband got a check for a whopping .81 cents and the government still had to take 0.12 cents of it. :frown:

Anyone else get anything like that??

    I worked for an amusement park in highschool and they got sued for not giving breaks. Everyone who worked during that time period that this was going on got a measly 8 cent check. I still have it LOL

    McDonalds! My first job ever. First shift was right after a football game. they sort of threw me to the wolves. someone threw french fries at me. I walked out after about an hour. I think my check was 1.50 because I didnt return my name tag.
