my new boss appears to be so far, absolutely fantasic

I hope you finally found your niche, OP.

Still, I'm preparing for the inevitable........

 

did you only work 4 days?

 

While this is far from good hourly, it really depends on where you live, and the cost of living. That, coupled with you being a new hire, it seems reasonable, unless you are in a very expensive area.

 

And this is awesome??? Who did you drive for before, Saddam Hussain?

 

There is an "off" button on that phone. I worked for a plumbing/HVAC wholesale for a while. They would not provide a cell phone, but expected me to be happy about using mine. Never offered to pay me anything for the minutes used. Consequently, I NEVER answered it, when I'd see it was from the store. Pissed the manager off greatly. Too bad, so sad.

 

are you getting paid the same thing you got at
Your last job.
