finally got an interview!

[240sxDann]

Well seeing as how most of your on here have steady jobs/careers, you probably wont care much, but I finally got an interview with wal-mart to work in the automotive department. Just thought I'd share that. I'm excited cuz I REALLY need a job.

[twistedlanes]

Nice man. I just had an interview with walmart. Suckers tryna give me $7.50 I don't want it but I need something.

[PotenzaSub]

^ only 7.50? how old r u?

[drew]

7.50 damn that's rough, i couldn't my insurance on 7.50 lol

i think the lowest i started anywere was 8.25 at american eagle, even that i was living at home and still couldn't pay my insurance and car note

[twistedlanes]

Man I'm 2o N I live at home too, I can't afford my car insurance either. I can't afford gas or a better car, but It is what it is. I was making ten but that was temporary, then I got on unemployment makin $600 a month. Now I'm just waitin for that phone call.

[240sxDann]

I'm not sure on pay yet, but a friend of mine who works there (who told me about the job) is makin 8.somethin, and after 90 days goes up over 9.

[Broken5hift]

if i didnt have a career id be working some day job and then stocking super markets at night. the combined pay would be worth it.

[Broken5hift]

btw, good luck man.


you should check out comcast or verizon, they will train you and the jobs get easier as the years go on

I just landed a part time job while I am going to school working locally for a small company for $11.00 an hour like 10hrs during the week but like 20hrs on the weekend. So not to bad while going to school.....I start tomorrow

[dwagner1006]

damn thats crazy. I could neevr survive with anything below 10. Gas alone empties my pocket. I am just holding out till the summer. I landed a internship at GE making like $25/ hour...pretty pumped

[240sxDann]

well considering I'm in highschool, and dont have any training in anything, 9 somethin aint bad. At least in my opinion.

[CobaltGrl]

Good luck!

How did you manage that?

[95SC2]

good luck with the job, i need to get a new one soon, either a new full time or a part time, i need money

[twistedlanes]

I'm also in school so my hours are limited. I'm about to start looking for sh** thats graveyard shift. I need some dizzo. I'm about to go giv blood I heard you can get like twenty dollars for that. Or plasma whatever that is if it's your first time you can get like forty. I'ma do it. Wish me luck.

[CobaltGrl]

I heard giving plasma is painful. If youre that hard up for cash go apply at Wawa....they seem to need more people at the registers..this is based on tha fact that I always wait in a long ass line when I go in there.

[projexxx]

wow...some of you guys are hurtin.

for highschoolers...wawa is a great company to work for. however the job sucks ass. but its good pay and duhh theyre 24/7 so you pick your schedule.

i hear keystone helicopters in coatesville is hiring like crazy. they pay pretty damn good and are a UTC subdivision. my buddy is an A&P mechanic for sikorsky helicopters (also UTC) in CT and made $100k last year. sikorsky is hiring like crazy if you want to move to CT. they start entry level in the 15-20 an hour range, and youve got full benefits from day 1. full benefits include 100% free ride to whatever school you want..as long as youre working for sik. they also pay out $5k in company stock when you get your diploma.

i work construction for American infrastructure. we do a lot of varried projects. ive made anywhere from 12.65 an hour (starting wage with no experience) to 27.99 an hour when i was running heavy equipment on the rt 309 expansion project. right now im on winter lay off and bringin home $421 a week, working out of my heated garage on my own car. Gotta love unemployment checks.

[PotenzaSub]

well, at least u're in school.

I'm 18. Not in college yet. I get paid $9.75 working at Best Buy. But, I'm applying to some pharmacy technician positions that pay upwards of $18. You have to aim high man.

[deadone000]

**** i wish i was makin 9 or better im 18 makin 7.25 an hr...it sucks but it puts money in my pocket

[SovXietday]

Yeah, it may be time to start looking for a better job myself. Making 10.60 as a senior salesman in Circuit City, they offered management which is around 40K a year but there is just no way I can deal with being a sales manager, ugh.
