I have three vehicles and three damn jobs and a mortgage to pay and I’m 26. I don’t want to hear it. You have to pay to play the game. ---

Bartend, F bitches get money, that’s what I’d do. $200/25 (hrs) = $8/hr take home. Call that $9.50/hour. $9.50/hour for 25 hours a week is a completely reasonable part time job, thats very similar to mine (I make considerably more w/ tips though). That is all he’s asking for from what I can tell. Not trying to be a dick, I’m just saying what I’ve read. ---

Seriously, wait tables. I did it for 3 years while I was in college working for Red Lobster. I averaged $150/day working 5 hours a day. All cash tips are great because there are MAJOR tax benefits ;). They also offer health insurance, even if you are part time. Side benefit: You will work with mostly girls, who after time become very comfortable with you around. You WILL see T and A. I promise, I even got to a feel a couple. (Girls I worked with got fakers and wanted to know what I liked better). You may even get to screw some of them… ---

:facepalm at OP Your #1 focus should be school. PERIOD. Then, just get ANY job. Even if it’s standing around ringing people out at K-Mart or something. A job is a job and will teach you responsibility/accountability if you allow yourself to be taught. Then you move on to bigger and better things. One thing I don’t recommend doing, is making a lateral move when it comes to work unless you absolutely have to (ie harassment at current job, lack of funds to get to work due to distance, etc.). If you are going to change jobs, make sure it’s a step up. Not over. You’ll never get anywhere if you keep doing that. ---

If you are going to change jobs, make sure it’s a step up. Not over. You’ll never get anywhere if you keep doing that. Another great tip. Always move up, not off to the side allowing the next guy to pass you by. I spent the last 8 years or so in my It career moving around a little more than I wanted it. Company lost the contract, hated my boss and the place, lost a contract again, now I am in a position that I can stick to so be it I dont literally kill someone in my office or move out of the state. What are you going to school for, if you are attending? Since we bot the ball busting out of the way kiiiiid, it seems like we are starting to help you here. :thumbup ---

And by the way, when you do decide its time to work full time like all adults do, you will be putting in 40+ hours a week. That’s not going to change unless you hit the lotto or mommy and daddy are rich. So get used to that idea. I did it starting when I was 16 in the summer. Worked full time every summer, 40+ hours. 28 hours or the max they would let me while I was in school. You gotta pay to play. Hell, I’m a salaried state worker and still put in 40+ a week because I have shit to do. ---

Seriously dude, deliver pizzas if needed. When I delivered (2 months when I was 17), I worked 5 hours a day and 4 days a week. Took home like, $275 and that was only working one weekend night. Yea, you’re putting miles on the car, but after a month or two, you can buy a beater and deliver in that. If you can not afford to pay your car payment in a single week’s work, then you should get rid of said car. So if you pay $280/month, you need a job (at 20 hours) that works for $14/hr… AFTER taxes. Also look at temp agencies. Try Advance Auto Parts. Pay is ‘ok’ but I know they’re always looking for part time.
