    It was black with a small orange spot on the front? Just like the white one
    but it has springs for legs? To make it bounce back upright?

    When just starting out you may want to take whatever extra they offer you. I know its not fun and sucks but could really pay out in the long run

    I know but already had commitments
    Oh whale
    Meh. Ima get as much overtime and work as possible once the holidays are over. So they'll see I'm plenty committed. Plus I'm just in training still anyway.

    They only offered it to us cause we don't got holiday pay since we haven't been here long enough so the 12 hour offer was just to make up for the pay we lose for holidays.

    Wasn't cause we actually have to push work out the door.

    Should have said yea. It isn't Christmas and at least you'd show initiative and enthusiasm to the powers that be.

    If it doesn't look like what you build, then I don't really pay attention;)
