Re: First Jobs
College jobs are always some bogus ---- unless you go to school in a reasonably large town. A lot of my friends go the the UofM in Minneaolis, so they just have regular jobs. I go to the UofM in Morris, so that means I just take what I can get.

---- FOOD SERVICE AND HEALTHCARE
The money is in sales, hands down. I swear to got i could make hellen keller buy a walkman if you paid me enough. If you know how to talk to people you'll be straight. Go to the mall and apply at every cellphone kiosk and at radio shack. Most places pay some sort of combination of hourly and comission, and with christmas comming up, now is the time to make commission. Plus they'll be hiring because it gets crazy at christmas and anyone that can turbo a honda can work a cell phone i'd hope

Re: First Jobs
Best money I ever made was doing pizza delivery. Never had to touch the food and rarely answered a phone. Made an hourly wage and GOOD tips. Friday nights I'd be competing with 3 other drivers and still make $100 cash tips. Saturday was just as good. Besides, Idk about you but my car was my "happy place" so it was nice just being able to drive around and listen to my own music and not really have to deal with customers aside from taking their money. Gas is the only drawback, but you drive a honda. you should be fine.

Re: First Jobs
I was thinking about it.. right now i'm rocking a 93 corolla shitbox that pulls 25-30 mpg on 87, but after thanksgiving im trying to get my 240 back down here which is like 20-25 mpg on 91... so about how many miles did you drive on average in a shift?
