I was on Break. so what does it matter? how does he know my parents dont let me smoke?

I very rarely buy cigerettes. I just borrow them.
Give em' back when i have the chance.

And I did live on the street.
I ran away at 15 and lived alone for (Almost) 3 months.
Well actually i lived with my girlfriend. We both worked at a pizza place.

Look, all im saying is none of you are in any position to judge me, as i would not do the same. No matter what, you people do not know me personally. And you cant just judge a book by its cover.

The law doesn't allow you to smoke. You were engaging in an illegal activity on company time/premises. Therefore, you got fired.

No one here is able to judge a book by its cover. All we have to judge you on is your own words and actions.

What you are still failing to see is that nobody here is judging you by anything other than what you have said, and more importantly how you've said it. The reaction you're getting is to what you yourself have written. That's how you come across. You whine about the things all teenagers whine about, but here you're whining to the grownups, and when we call you on it you whine some more.

All you need to do is stop the whining, and people will stop pointing it out. It's that simple.

Only going to address the smoking bit:

I think that's pretty silly you got fired for it, UNLESS you we're told not to smoke. Then, that's your own fault.

This being a subsim forum, im going to be the mature one and just drop it. Im not here to argue with you about stupid things in which you have nothing to do with.

Why, yes, I am. Thank you for noticing.

But, whereas some people are born stupid, I've worked hard all my life to get this way. AND BY CRACKY, I'M PROUD OF THE JOB I'VE DONE!

And if ya don't like it, I'll be glad to try harder.

You're wrong on both counts.

1. No, that's not what he meant. "YER" is the appropriate approbation.

2. No, you don't think.
