Oh, and as icing on top of the cake, the $500 bonus turned out to be less than a fifth of what was promised. I was dumbfounded, but not just because I got ROYALly screwed over, but also because I found out 13 other individuals hired by RCSC in my area were experiencing the same situation.
I tried to see the best in it and I showed up to camp the first week I was scheduled, just to be called again and told I had no more weeks to work. Well, I got a call about two weeks before summer began saying 'we overhired, and yes you signed the contract so we can give you a minimum of 4 weeks' I was devastated! I needed a stable income and this was not providing it. I took the job, knowing I had a poor experience the past summer but the pay would look okay next to my tuition fees. I was hired for my second year at Royal City (I only took the job because everything else I had set up fell through) and I was promised 8 weeks minimum with a nice $500 bonus at the end of the summer.
As a student attending University, this job was an absolute nightmare.
