Default What's your student job ?

ok this is the thread where you will tell us if you have a student job, if yes, what you do ! ? !

For my part,

I work 3 days / week (15h/week) in a clothes shop called Springfield (spanish brand)
I have to 'serve' ppl who come in the shop and tidying the shop.

And beside that, I go 5 days/week @ school, learning network and telecommunication ...

What about you ?

I have graduated recently, so I had to give my job up. I was working as a private chauffeur for various clients. The cars I drove in were the cars of the clients, so I have driven a lot of different cars that way. I also transported cars for leasing companies.

I have two days until I will graduate my Junior year of high school. I go to school and do homework about 30 hours a week. To make money I work at a resteraunt. I do what ever the owner needs me to do. I work about 13 hours a week. Starting this summer that is going to be up'ed to about 20 hours a week. I wash dishes, I am a waiter, and some times I cook. Each job that I do gets paid differently. The lowest of which is $6/hour. Waitering can get you up to about $20/hour. I have yet to have one of those days yet though. On average it is about $10-$11/hour.

I work at a market research company, that does hosts/recruits people for focus groups, it is a very cool job, and the pay is good.

and if you don’t' know what a focus groups is, it is like a taste test, but it is not only on food, focus groups can be on just about anything

not a real job, but I have a partnership with a friend and we sell used cars. Now we're stuck with a car that its market price recently went down and we're just looking not to waste more money and loose more
of course we don't buy everyone's car, but look for friends, friends of friends, etc. that are selling their cars and we tell 'em we'll get them a buyer for their car. In this way we don't spend so much money and can beg for a few more hundred us dollars. This activity is on sundays, not including weekdays we look for more cars.
In some days I go to my family's bussiness (tshirts, clothes, music, toys, what ever it can be sold) to keep them tidy.

Right now I'm looking for a real part time job in an electrical company or automotive (just waiting for the contact to call me, someday :roll: )
