Beat this.

- No sick leave.
- No paid vacation.
- No extra for holidays and such. (except for Christmas)
- Only got medical benefits 1.5 years out of the 5 years I've worked for the company. Had to pay the majority of all of my visits out of my pocket, exceeding 5 grand total expenses.
- 1 pay increase for the time I've been in and it increased my hourly wage 1 whole dollar.
- Constantly get paid late. (beyond the pay period)
- No pay stub.
- Worked as a full time employee from the 1st day of employment.
- First one to get reduced hours from the full-time staff. (<35 hours/week) averaged previously between 44-60 hours a week.

Made a complaint to the State and I'm still waiting on a reply in regards to my inquiry which I've made over 3 years ago... the last request for status was 2 months ago (my 11th time) and I've given up already.

I think I have the absolute worst case scenario about a workplace which doesn't offer much. It's like being the 8th owner of a Yugo.

Take the first offer. You can always quit if something better comes up. I don't know about Hawaii but in California they can't keep you from working on any job after you leave them- that's BS.
