hey lm jess u work at pizza hut too

I have started to become a shifty at mine which pays an extar 1.60 on top of normal wage for no real extra work.

Best part of working there is playing up after closes don't know how much fun u can have in a pizza joint
have u done your modules? coz in our franchise you don't get the pay rise until you finished modules...

i'm an assistant manager doing the LARC modules... but i'm full time so i'm on contract so my rate is basically determined by the company

i don't like closes - we have to do them by ourselves (and a driver) so it can get kinda scary being a girl alone in the store at like 12:30 (after close on thurs-sat nights doing paperwork) so i end up doing opens most of the time

i did that last year but only for 2 weeks (it was a friends property - wheat/canola/barley - i was driving a chaser bin)
i got $500 a week (cash in hand) but also got accomodation, food etc.. and for me it was basically a holiday so the cash was a bonus!
