DePloderer Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jun 22, 2005 -> 03:30 PM) I worked for a vending company and held similar hours. I hated it, even though i got home at 12. Then i would go to sleep, and wake up and be groggy for about 4 more hours, go back to sleep, wake up at 1(or 1:30 if I was dragging) and go through the whole routine. It was killer on my body clock, I will never do it again. I can beat you all at worst jobs. I once spent a summer while in college working on a maggot farm. Yes you read it right, MAGGOTS, we bread maggots by the container load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was able to buy some that were red or green based on diet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LowerCaseRepublican Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I got two jobs (well hopefully) One writing for my local paper (first column runs on July 1st, btw) Second one, I got a job interview tomorrow for a summer job as a newspaper circulation assistant here but manager said he'd be really happy to have me come in. It's less than 40 hrs. a week and I get an opportunity to sleep in most days (3:30-7 pm M-F and 6:30-11 am Sa-Sun) Its basically just driving papers out to people who run out and delivering the errant paper to a person who didn't get one because the paperboy is a functional moron.

There's a Menards by my house, I think I'll apply there. A few months ago, Best Buy was taking applications for people in stock... should've applied there.

I hated my time at dominick's, but it got me some college money. btw, menard's you'd have to talk to customers just as much probably. advice: try and find a small place to work at. not a giant chain. how's basketball going? we're gonna have fun at the game tommorow, hope you enjoy your time playing basketball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
