Quiznos
Subs ripoff, manipulative, lying, stealing, dirty, uncooperative, under handed, unorganized, childish... Mm mm mm PETTY!

My story is a long and unbelievable one. For my first job I decided to apply at Quiznos Sub at my local shopping mall. At first everything was fine, and my boss seemed creditable. I was only 15 years old and we closed at 10:00. That means that the owner was breaking The Child Labor Laws of Maryland.

Later on in the job, there was always a problem with the schedule being made on time, so it was never known when you were supposed to work. A lot of Health Code laws were also being violated, such as leaving certain meats out all day and then putting them back in the "walk-in".

Something that makes this story a lot worse is that the owner was never in the store. And we were frequently out of certain items such as: lettuce, straws, bacon, Swiss cheese, pickles, mushrooms, bags, tops for the cups and things like that. There were plenty of customer plaints which could not be filled by anyone in the store when I was working there. Most of the time I was left in the store with people either my age or younger.

I was fired during my Spring Break week over a "food swap" that I was invovled in with Olive Garden. The deal seemed to be a good one because anything off of their menu we would get free and the same thing applied to us. I was not informed that the owner had told us "no" so I ended "swapping food" three times. He told us that there would be a punishment for doing that, which was fine I was ready to accept the punishment with no complaints. Later I found out that I was supposed to work for free all weekend. Im not exactly sure but there must be some type of law that he is breaking.

But I was fired because of something my mom had told him, not because of anything I did. And he said that exact phrase. Okay if he wanted to be petty that was fine. All I requested was that I receive my last checks for the hours that I had worked. I received my second to last check only because he ownwer wasnt there.

But today I went to get my final check and the owner decided that he was going to withhold it for no reason. Although I was not causing a disturbance he tried to call security on me. When my mom came into the store he started yelling and telling us that we were not welcome in his store anymore and that he was "not going" to grant me my last check. Im pretty sure that he cannot withhold my last check without proper grounds.

Can someone let me know if anything about this is right?
