Sorryz. Basically I got a new job, and it sucks. It pretty much equates to getting hit by a big f*****g truck every morning at 3am. I have around 20 square inches of bruises on my body, a hyperextended thumb, my back is all f****d up(What else is new) and im pretty sure i f****d up both of my hamstrings. Oh yeah and I have burst vains in both my wrists, and i'm not sure whether i've lightly sprained them or not. I can still pick shit up it just hurts like everything else on my body! Son of a b***h! So basically I am getting paid 8.50 an hour to get ran over by a truck ^^

Find a different job if you don't like it, I don't think anybody likes their job.

Quit.
Don't f**k up your body for 8.00 per hour, it's not worth it.

I would appreciate an active job. Sometimes I look out my window and a single tear slides down my cheek.

Go to a head hunter or temp agencey and get an admin assistant job for 15+/hr.
You obviousely can use a computer, right? Just need to know word, excel and power point (will take a non retard a day each) and make money for reading realpoor.

There isn't something like a Best Buy in your area??? Retail blows the big goat, but those places are all hiring seasonal help and they'll pay more than what you're making now. And if you demonstrate some sort of thinking process, you'll make lead in 3 months and get to order people around.
(bonus: hot girls at Best Buy!)

True, but most Best Buys have quality women for the younger age group (16-20).

Uglar = westcoast.
I know wages are about 15% higher there than in Michigan (as an example) because the standard of living is 15% higher. The desparity is even larger in Atlanta.

The west coast of the US is insane costwise ...
It's somewhat disheartening to head to cali from where I live in BC these days cause on top of the exchage rate things are still more expensive there than what I pay for them in Canadian money.
The Moral of this story is you guys suck at pricing.

I can't help but wonder if this job is really back breaking or is Janoth just whining as usual. He reminds me of those kids who always go down in sports with groin injuries or pulled hamstrings but they can play the next game.
