    Must of had a good reason to fire you, if not sounds like legal action is required.
    THE BEST METHOD to run PSX games (and everything else for that matter) is via Retroarch - http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/
    If you have any questions on how to set it up on Windows please feel free to ask, its very easy.

    Yeah, my car broke down. Apparently that's a good enough reason to them. I tried to appeal it, but in the end I just gave up. After I left my Aunt (who used to work for the same place) told me they're a bunch of assholes who bitch at everyone who works there. I even went in to mail something one day, they had a new hire at the window being trained, and they treated her like complete shit. It was pretty sad, poor girl was on the verge of tears.

    It was pretty bad, man. I worked more in training than I did with the actual job. 40 hours in two weeks of training. I made bank.

I was a substitute for the main driver, and she was NEVER off work. So I never got the chance to really get paid or work barely at all.

    Just trying to find another job now.
    Wait. Did you know you were only going to be working as a backup driver if the other was off, before you took the job?

    Nope... They only told me at the end of my training. If I would've known I would've been the backup, I wouldn't have taken the job. They kept all that crap hidden until the very end when they gave us our routes.
