Anyone here have a part-time job? i've applied to best buy & target & i plan on applying to circuit city as well. i really wanna work at best buy so i can get discounts on games & such. i'm just wondering where everyone works & what perks or employee discounts come with your jobs.

also, who thinks they have the easiest job? what does ur job entitle? i think working at best-buy would be pretty easy.

i work at a hotel, the perks and benefits are that i get to do almost whatever the hell i want, followed by people bitching about how others dont do their work for them..

Well, i dont really have a real job. However I make 48 dollars a week mowing 3 lawns which only takes a few hours.

Im gonna get a real job when school starts next year though. So I can actually have money to buy a car and stuff.

I work at Roly Poly Sandiwches. My benefits are: 10% off of food, or half a sandwich free if I work 5 hours. I rarely work 5 hours in one day, cause my boss likes to send me home. I don't have any actual benefits. Whoo..

My job is easy, but it sucks.

Not currently, but I plan on getting a job for the summer. I've resolved to not get a job in fast food though. I've had bad experiences with that in the past.

I don't have a part-time job..let alone a job. Although I'm planning on getting one this summer. I need to earn some extra cash. And I would really enjoy an easy job, I've actually been pretty stressed lately. :/

I applied for a job at the local pub as a dishwasher for the summer. But currently I am mowing the lawn where my mom works for about 20$ a week. The lawn isn't that big and it only takes a couple of hours to do. Btw, my mom works at a retirement home.

Yeah, I work at Papa Murphys. I get 50% off of anything on the menu, and if I close (about three times a week) I get to take any leftover pizzas for free.

What do I do? I make pizzas, run the register, prepare the toppings, and do the closing paperwork at night/lockup. Basically, if its done at Papa Murphys, I do it. This is nice, because it keeps some variety going. I really like this job because we don't have to cook the food or clean up after messy customers. Take and Bake is wonderful. :)

I work at Isaac's Restaurant and Deli. I make about $7 an hour for cooking and making soups sometimes. I get no benefits outside a 15% discount and a free meal when I work, because I don't work enough to be considered a full time employee. I bring in about $200-$250 per check.

I work at a place called Plantation Estates. Its a fancy club place where a bunch of rich old people come. I'm a waiter in the dining room. We have to wear tuxido shirts a bow-ties, since they try to be super fancy. (even though the food isn't even all that good)

What do I get paid? A measly $6.50 an hour. I often feel like its not enough to put up with these ungrateful, annoying, sometimes smelly old people. ;) The benefits? We can eat all we want while we're working, even though its against health code rules. We technically get a free meal each time we work.

I work about 50-55 hours a week 6-5 M-F. By the end of the day I'm so tired, and in so much physical pain, that I couldn't work a second job if I wanted to.
