Anyone have a job?

[PharaohManXe54]

Just wondering. This way, we can get to know each other better!

I work at the largest national pharmacy chain a.k.a. Walgreens. I'm a "service clerk" (a.k.a. cashier). If you won't get offended, I'll tell you what I make. I'll wait until someone wants to know to put it down. I don't care if you say what you make, honestly. Interesting fact about Walgreens: Although it is the largest pharmacy chain, there are no Walgreens in Montana, West Virginia, Delaware, and Vermont.

Good topic!

Goooo Walgreens! Actually, I'd like to know how much you make, since you offered to share.

Actually, here I am at 17, and I've never had a job... Unless you count being a mod here. But I may be getting one pretty soon. I'll post if/when it happens.

What if I don't?

I can see the Banned notice now. Just kidding of course, even though I have a job or two. Now I won't waste your time with my past jobs, you know the whole soldier of fortune thing, where you don't know where your next meal is going to come from but you could always steal a dog or something.

Now I'm a telesurveyer, its awful. Calling up people you don't know, talking to people you don't like, being sworn at when your only retaliation is writing down their information and informing their local police that you've seen a meth lab at that address. But thats what you get when you fight the 'man' and he says you'll never find work again, and lo and behold you spend the next couple of months eating dog.

Well... since you insist... I make $7.00 an hour. Pretty good for starting in Feburary, I must say. Recently I got promoted, so instead of dealing with crabby bi***y customers, I get to clean toilets and wash the windows! You may not think of it as a promotion, but I'd do this instead of working at the register ANY day! I could tell you SOOO many stories of all of the customers who go through there. I've even been robbed once and I've prevented a robbery once. This one story didn't happen to me, but it happened at the same Walgreens to my friend: my friend was in line buying something, and the cashier (not me, but this really old, slow lady who complains a lot who I always have to take off of her shift) is checking this person out. Then, all of a sudden, the next lady in line yells "Can you speed it up, I have to be at work at 6:30!" And guess what? It was 3:00! Honestly, some people!

Right now I'm working at temp job at a UPS office. And no, I'm not delivering packages. I haven't even really seen a package, except for the usual office correspondence. The job involves loads and loads of paperwork, 87% of which I have no idea what it says or why it's actually needed. I'm just waiting to get yelled at for not putting the cover sheets on my TPS Reports.

I'm working this job since being laid off from my last radio job (because the GM's cousin or someone decided he needed a job there. Last in=first out). This despite the fact that I've won AWARDS for my broadcast excellence (no joke. I was Best Newscaster in the State of Kansas for 2002. Don't take my word for it. Check out the list on www.kab.org (or maybe .net. I forgot.) Perhaps I'm tooting my own horn too much.).

---A lot of parentheses there. Sorry. Anyway, the temp job is paying ten bucks an hour, which, if you can believe it, is actually about the same as my last radio job. Wow.

I haven't had a job yet. But in school we have this "role" were we have to make a resume/ cover letter as if we were that person. I was applying to work at a Fastfood resturant!

I honestly don't want a job right now. When I get older of course I'll want one. For now..I think homework is enough.

Can you make on of your own, or does it have to be real life?

[PharaohManXe54]

Sorry to hear that T2LLS. What do you have to say to all of those people who want to drop out of high school?

And Tammy... what are you talking about? If you want, you could talk about some volunteer work or service work you did, like tutoring kids or whatnot.

Well, I choosed to drop out to get some kind of job, or money. Cause me and my mom were having finaical problems. We were renting rooms, on welfare. I mean, we were poor. going to 4 diffent HS, jumping to city to city we were very unstable and it was hard for me.

I don't know, you've all seen Billy Madison right? I hate to think any of you good people spell rock, R O K. But then again if you did... ;D ;D ;D

I wouldn't worry about any of you being that bad off, but I like people who act smart, rather than people that have diplomas or whatnot.
