Jobs, workplace, whatever makes you money

Post by LOOT » Sat Dec 14, 2013 3:01 pm

You know, I never really known much aside from AI and SD's jobs and Sim's Subway job fun, but I'm curious as to where the lot of ya do tedious labor.

I've said it a few times but I work at Little Caesar's, primarily in the mornings now for dough prepping, lunch rushes, and the fun that is school orders and other large lunch crap.

My other job, I may not have mentioned, is at HyVee Gas Station, and it is quite frankly the most relaxing job I have ever worked. I'm averaging about 6PM to midnight a few nights a week.

I work at a Safeway deli. It's not the ideal job, but I need the money.

I'm also looking for a second job right now.

This past summer I worked for a funeral home doing inside and outside maintenance and I had a Real Bad Experience

Currently I work an office job where I make advertisements for on-campus activities. I really like the people I work with as well as my boss.
and that's the waaaaaaaaaay the news goes

Until this past summer, I slung layaways at Kmart and tutored. Now, I just tutor (but I do it a LOT more).

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

SD and I make most of our money training and firing a lot of people who think they can be contract cleaners but are mistaken. SD also sells(or sold, at least) jewelry. I do freelance art and media. We just launched our fantasy world and novel series. So far I prefer the work that does not involve the hiring and firing of would-be cleaners.

During the summers I would do landscaping. I got equal parts money and sunburns.

During the school year I sporadically work at the front desk of the library (as I am actually doing right now). Good for doing homework, or chatting with procrastinating friends. Unfortunately, I am stupidly busy all the time, so I don't get many hours.

I work friday-monday at Kroger as a "courtesy clerk" which means I mostly bag groceries and bring in carts, but get called on to do just about anything. The pay isn't great, but I don't mind the work. Also it's not Walmart.

I could be a cashier but I like to be able to go outside every half-hour.

I'm currently looking for work (sometimes I do proofreading and copyediting, but the work I get from that is far and few between), but i have an interview next week with a consulting firm with whom I would be editing and formatting aviation-related material.
