Looooong Day ahead of me...

You would be surprised who you can meet where. Cris Carter and his brother were both members. If all else fails, go for the loot, but the job sounds very boring/repetitive. School is what is most important right now.

yes, and thats what im doing now. I plan on going to college (a business school) so I'll get contacts and get to know the right people there. Right now, I just want a decent job to be able to pay for my car, gas, savings, and just spending money in general.

I have to work 9:15AM - 11PM...this is gonna be killer.

Not to minimize what you are doing, but I did these hours for three straight years when I first got out of b-school (on Sat and Sun sometimes too). Trust me, you get used to it.

Hey, just read that working 12 hour shifts increases health issues by a third. Tomorrow is a 12 hour day for me. I wonder if my boss will give me the middle of the day off?

Try getting deployed to the middle east. Now that's working long shifts! Bless our men & women in uniform.

Hey TGO5 or anyone else:

I dont know if they have any TGI Fridays over where you live but definitely look into it if you are in need of a job. if you are under 18(which im pretty sure you are) you will start off hosting since you cannot legally serve alcohol. after you turn 18, you almost automatically become a server where you will generally walk out with over a 100 dollars on a good friday or saturday night along with the 3.90 an hour you get for being a tipped employee. whats more, you have the possibility of meeting people that will help you down the line. i know a guy who worked as a server and became a bartender. once he makes enough money he will take some realitor classes and because of Fridays he met some people that own a firm. as soon as he gets his liscense, he already has a job.

Just something to think about.

I really don't want to work in food service.

Plus I can only work certain hours. The problem with me finding a job is I don't have alot of time. With school and the homework it only allows me a few more hours in the day. Currently I have even less time because I'm on the swim team which cuts into my time even more. I want to put alot of time into swimming so I can earn a letter(Already got one in football this year). And then hopefully I will earn another letter in either tennis, baseball or maybe track & field.

So my only real time I can hold down a job is the summer.
