Elijah~ Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I'm a secretary for my family's balloon business. All I do is take orders, give them an estimated price, and prepare the invoices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fusion X. Denver Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 This summer I'm returning to bus tables at the restaurant I've worked at for years, though I'm gonna work on moving up to expo. But more importantly, I got a job for July to mid-August where I'm a counselor/instructor at this summer camp where I can teach kids video game creation. Get some of that leadership experience for the resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sander Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Stocking shelves in a shop (beverages to be more precise). I don't hate the job, but I get annoyed at times when I have to move something into the shop from storage on a pallet jack, and boom, all the elderly people decide to show up at the same time. That, and since we're having campaign on 3 sorts of lemonades, I've already found 4 bottles with the cap opened (the campaign is something in the lines of "every 3rd cap wins" aka any cap can have a logo inside of it, and if you find the logo, you get the next one for free by giving the cap to the cashier). That, and the teens and younger just mess up the shelf where the capmgains lemonades are located in. And the common shit that happens, aka finding x item in x location where it's not supposed to be.

Akira Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Just finished uni. Signed up for a recruitment agency on Tuesday, they already found me work today! ...Only, when myself and 2 other agency guys turned up, we were told the company contracting us had gotten the date wrong. However, since they admit fault for screwing up the organisation, we got paid anyway. Hoping they'll contact me for something more long term in future.

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 Pushed carts at Wal-Mart. Was a terrible terrible job, for many reasons. One of which being I got yelled at when we were busy and I couldn't get all the carts in as fast as they'd like. (Even though they would interupt me to do other stuff half the time.) The other was that working in the rain and snow for hours sucked. But I quit that job and am now looking for a new one. hopefully it will be better, and hopefully I will get one soon.

I am literally doing exactly this, except at target instead of walmart. Its not so bad once you get the hang of it, although getting interrupted to do other things is really, really annoying, and you go through shoes mad fast.

LordCowCowCowCowCowCowCowCow Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I am literally doing exactly this, except at target instead of walmart. Its not so bad once you get the hang of it, although getting interrupted to do other things is really, really annoying, and you go through shoes mad fast. I worked there for 8 months and it only got worse. It doesn't help that the management of my Walmart are terrible. Not even lying they were seriously incompetent. I didn't mind doing the work, but I did mind them. (Though the snow... oh god the snow. Having just a strap to pull carts through several inches of snow was... ugh.) I can't say for you, but for me, because how busy we were, I had to be out there all day to keep up. And usually I was the only one for most of my shift. I have a huge problem with that place so I sorta ranted. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted April 24, 2014 Report Share Posted April 24, 2014 I don't have a paid job, per say (parents said I should get one this summer at college). If it counts as work, I'm an assistant instructor at a martial arts club. Not getting paid in money, obviously, but I guess a gift card at the end of the year counts as a paycheck of sorts, I guess. (Though sometimes I feel like I'm wasting my time b/c I get yelled at various things [mostly related to me being slightly strict with kids when they play around], whereas my colleagues don't do anything.) Luckily, it's a weekend only thing. Probably wouldn't like it if I were an actual school teacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I'm a cashier at a grocery store (Food Lion, to be specific.) Used to be a bagger, but since this new "strategy" we've started, they've hired people to do all the bagger's cleaning duties while abolishing the title of "bagger" altogether. Basically, no one can come in and JUST bag groceries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 .... .... ....... you have no idea of the length of the rant I was going to make in this section on this subject last Wednesday, before a meeting with my parents to discuss my state of employment kind of calmed me down enough not to do it. I am desperate for new employment. I can't get out of this hotel fast enough (and as a matter of fact, neither can 99% of the other employees). Unless my luck starts to change or the GM changes his mind, my contract might get changed soon and I might have to sign up to new hours, and I really, really, really, really, would rather do anything than sign a new contract with this place. I mean I would rather stick my manhood in a Portugese Man of War, than sign a new contract here. But the infuriating fact of life is we all need the money, me especially to keep my flat, and if no-one else is gonna give me anything I don't have any other choice, other than to leave and be unemployed. Which the GM knows and is obviously keen to exploit. So... anyone here hiring? ... Anyone? ... Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bahamut - Envoy of the End Posted April 26, 2014 Report Share Posted April 26, 2014 I know you're not too far from me. Unfortunately where I work isn't looking for anyone. Aww, thanks Yin. The only place I've had even a sniff of getting so far is from a college near you, but it wasn't so much of a 'Hi Matt. We really liked your CV and want to ask you to come to for an interview' and more a 'Hi All Generic Applicants. Every person who has applied for this job is invited to a test day, which afterwards if you do well then you might get an interview.' I don't have a car, otherwise I would have gone to this anyway and tried. Had it been a more personal email then I'd have got myself there by hook or crook. But having to organise alternative transport just for a test day that every idiot who applied has an invite to, yeah I can't really justify it. :( Otherwise yeah I'd be nearby. But I'm still appyling for a big range of stuff over a wide range and will get a car when my future is a bit more secure to avoid such future issues.

a bad post Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 I work as a lifeguard at my school, the money pays well (especially since I do summer lessons), and during boy's swim season, well there certainly plenty of eye candy. My employers are pretty agreeable, the only downside is the community members can be ridiculously rude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Amazing Avian Posted April 27, 2014 Report Share Posted April 27, 2014 McDiabeetus. Right next to a high school, a middle school, a college, a subdivision, and a football stadium. We've had lines out the door and drive through lines past the auto zone next door. And there's always a 150 double cheese burger order on game days.
