    Summer Jobs

    Lets hear 'em. College people are getting out of school over the next couple weeks, and I could use a few ideas.

        Re: Summer Jobs

        Not really a summer job, but I just submitted my application to EB Games a couple days ago, I'm going to go back tonight to talk to the manager and see if he saw it or not (he wasn't there when I turned it in), since I'm going in that direction for some food.

        Hopefully I get the position, they only have 3 people working there right now (including the manager), they can spare one more spot for me.

              do you know the manager? sometimes they feel threatended or annoyed if they say theyll look at it soon and you come back in two days to check the progress.. just be forewarned ive been yelled at before for doing something similar. the lady said, " we said a week, and its been three days... youre gonna be dealing with math and time at this job. obviously youre not qualified"


              Im looking to work at a grocery store stocking shelves.. a great physical workout and you get money

                  I got hired at DQ about a week ago to work in the kitchen. Its cool because a bunch of my friends work there already, and there are a few hot ladies that work the front too.

                    Yeah, I've known the manager for awhile. I just wanted to check because when I gave the employee the application (I know all 3 people who work there) the manager wasn't in.

                    So when I went in tonight..he said I need to have some prior experience before he'd hire me, so I'm looking into other places now.

                    My list:

                    Robek's - Smoothie place near my school and house
                    Baskin Robbins - Probably a good summer-time job
                    Sport Chalet or Best Buy - Worth a shot
                    Maybe a Bakery or something..I dunno

                      That's ****ed up.

                      I had a job since last summer working at a small grocery store, stocking shelves. Then business got bad, so they had to let me and the couple of others who work there go. At the time they said it would probably only be for a couple weeks, but it's been over a month, so things aren't looking good. Looks like I need to find a new job.

                      I'm going to apply to Best Buy, and maybe Target. I could easily get a job at Burger King, but I don't really wanna work fast food.

                      Worst case, I can get a job at some school as a janitor for the summer.

                        I worked at the Boys & Girls Club a couple summers ago. As long as you get along with kids, it's a fun and easy job. If you're still in school, you should be able to find work through work study there. It's easy and you get to play games and other fun stuff like that.

                            The grocery store idea isn't bad.

                            I did landscaping all last summer. A good workout, solid tax-free pay, and fun times, especially if you're working with friends. I might try for something closer to my field, but I won't be disappointed to have to fall back on landscaping again.

                              when i was in college, during the summers i worked at a post office distribution center. hours were 3-11pm. great pay to start $12/hr), and the supervisors would take us down to the bar for a 9pm liquid lunch.
