06.12.12 | Try a fast food joint ( I know it sucks) until you hit 18. After that, one job I really enjoyed was warehouse work. I worked for national grocers basically assembling pallets of groceries for Loblaws (Canadian store). Solid work, physical, but good paying. I saved up for a trip to Europe in 3 months of working there part-time. |

06.12.12 | I just got a job at a local brewery and I get super-discounted super-awesome beer it's pretty legit : ) |
sniper
06.12.12 | working is awesome even if the job sucks. mine doesn't but i've had some shit ones. good luck. |
taxidermist
06.12.12 | I need a job too. Had some interviews, but no luck :/ |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | Yeah, I think I just go work with my buddy at Mickey D's. Problem is my younger sister might work there too, that'd be uber gay. But I'd probably work mornings and we'd have different shifts |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | But yeah, MetallicOpeth that sounds like a plan, that seems like really good pay |
MMX
06.12.12 | Trust me you don't want a job
Job's suck ass |
Graveyard
06.12.12 | Just don't work at radioshack |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | But MMX I need the monies |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Washing dishes sucks for the most part but you'll likely make 9 or 10 bucks an hour, that's what I did for my first job, it was actually pretty fun for a while since some of the people who worked at the restraunt were real cool. Do anything to avoid working at Mcdonalds, don't support that shitty conglomerate of childhood obesity and diabetes. |
MMX
06.12.12 | Fuck that you don't need the monies
But if you still want to work and your not ugly apply for a host position at a restaurant. Easiest job ever |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | Yeah, but working with a good friend would make Mickey D's okay. And IMO Mickey D's isn't what directly causes obesity and diabetes anyway |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Haha being a hostess would be sweet but they rarely hire dudes. |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | Yeah it'd be me and like 5 chicks working at the same time lol. |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Yes it does, some families eat that shit evr day even tho they could cook their own food for less. |
MMX
06.12.12 | I've been a host at like 3 restaurants so far lol.
|
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Also I think working at Mcdonalds is probably one of the most miserable jobs you can have, I'd take a shitty restraunt job over that any day. If you guys have a pizza shop try delivering, it's an awesome job. |
omnipanzer
06.12.12 | The only people who don't need money aren't on this site. |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | Yes it does, some families eat that shit evr day even tho they could cook their own food for less.
yeah thats not mcdonalds fault that people chose to get their food |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | I personally hate big conglomerates like Mcdonalds and feel like they stand for nothing good but thats your opinion and that's fine. Atleast people in Norwegia have the sense to burn them down. |
omnipanzer
06.12.12 | I think the hate for McDonalds is that they actively and aggressively keep their employees oppressed
and in need. In doing so they keep their food so cheep that it's hard to not consider them an easier
alternative to cooking your own food. It's not that people could choose not to eat there it's that
they make it so easy to say yes. Then there is their domineering control over various parts of the
food industry like Corn, Beef, Chicken and potatoes. A word from them would cut out a lot of the the
really bad industry standards that were enacted in part to meet their demand. EDIT: but when you are
broke none of that really matters. |
MMX
06.12.12 | Fuck McDonalds it's all about Carls Jr. and In-N-Out |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | That's one good reason but big companies like that only make it harder for the common man to get by, they make billions each year yet they pay their employees shit. Just one of the many big industries that set the low standards of pay that make it harder for mom and pop businesses to get by, it just makes it harder for everyone else when these big companies make tons of money and get away with awful things overall making the economy worse. The problem's with the banks and how they fucked our economy is definately the biggest problem but it's not the only. |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | Yeah, I totally see your point Wack, but in this case, a job is a job and I'm in need |
EyesWideShut
06.12.12 | fuck fast food and look for warehouse work or something blue collar. i worked in a printing warehouse for almost 3 years and had some great times and the people were cool too.
u can try one of those mom n pop stores or publix if ya want. |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Got ya Chuck, do it if you need to, if not dishwashing isn't too bad and it's usually good pay. |
ChuckyTruant
06.12.12 | yeah thanks man |
MO
06.12.12 | "fuck fast food and look for warehouse work or something blue collar"
pretty sure you need to be 18 to work in a warehouse, at least, but I'm not sure how it works in the states |
EyesWideShut
06.12.12 | well in my experience u didnt have to be 18, at least not all warehouses. i was working there in highschool. |
omnipanzer
06.12.12 | R U in or near a city? EDIT: oh you aren't 18 yet? |

06.12.12 | I worked for national grocers basically assembling pallets of groceries for Loblaws (Canadian store).

|
MO
06.12.12 | haha solid man, it's not bad work huh? was pretty enjoyable more times than not for me |
ThroneOfAgony
06.12.12 | Lol dude, i'm in your exact same position. I'm 16 and have no job for the summer, which is kind of shit. My mom has been pestering the fuck out of me to get one, and I mean I've applied, but I haven't followed up.
I get my drivers license in August, and really, I'm not going to be able to drive because I stupidly didn't get that job this summer, so now I have hardly any money for it.
Oh well, at least I get paid 30 bucks to mow a lawn every week....right? |
Acanthus
06.12.12 | The only place I normally find work is with food, and I really don't like working with food. That being said if you hit up the fancier places in your town you might be surprised at the positions that are opened; table busers are relatively short lived jobs, and dishwasher's are always needed. |
Muisc4Life26
06.12.12 | I'm 18 and jobless. |
tvol
06.12.12 | Ha, all of you teenagers think you stand a chance of getting a job. Good luck. Be prepared to do the shit that Mexicans usually do. |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Mexicans cook your food at TGI Fridays. |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | You wouldn't believe how many Mexicans cook in restaurants, not just in shitty ones either, some who can hardly even speak English are really good cooks because they work harder than egotistical white boys. |
MMX
06.12.12 | TGI Fridays sucks.
^^^This |
wacknizzle
06.12.12 | Yeah dude these ritz bits w/cheeze > TGI Fridays entire menu.
EDIT: Guy Fieri = TGI Fridays |
ChuckyTruant
