Jobs?

Thu Sep 14, 2006 10:29 pm

I don't know why, I just sorta assume that everyone else's my age sometimes.

I was wondering how many people on PPT are actually working, how many people are going to school.

Do I make any sense?

Neither, at the moment. I've applied to just about every place I could around here, and I haven't heard anything yet. I'm hoping to hear back from someone soon, but jobs are pretty difficult to get around here, it seems (heck, even the warehouse down the street that hires people every single day wouldn't. >_>).

When I get a job, though, I'm saving up money to go back to my community college.

I've worked at McDonalds for about 8 months, and until I move or the stupid BlockBuster hires me, I'm stuck there.

As for school, I'm in University. And considering my University is millions of miles away, I only work weekends.

Just finished uni last year, working now. I miss the learning a bit, and being able to sleep in ... but I don't miss having to work on assignments in the evenings and weekends! And earning money is good too

I do both! I have a full time job teaching and I'm working on my masters degree. Fun times.

I'm going to school full-time. However, this is going to change starting next summer and next school year. Why? Well, I need to get a 3.2 GPA for my freshman year so I can transfer to UT Austin.

I'm 14, a freshman. I work on and off in various acting and performing jobs. Broadway bound am I! ;D Right now I'm in a local production of Oklahoma as well as prepping for a few competitions at the Shakespearean festival.

I'm also working on my pilot's license right now ^^

I'm not going to college, (Though I wish I could) so I'm looking for a job now. Not much luck yet.

No real job whatsoever. Though I do stints as a Librarian, Lumberjack, Cult Leader, etc.

Ditto.
When they told me the cost of the course (£850 for a one year course...) I told them to shove it.
Course then I did some other silly things to jeopardise my ever returning to that college aswell, so I'm looking for a job / Resisting the urge to run away.

I'm close. I'm working on my masters, and I have a full-time job, but I want a full-time job teaching.

Freshman in college, but I do wash dishes and make sandwiches at one of the dining halls.

Grade 9, but I draw for a website for a little bit of money. C:

I dont do anything, officially. But Im applying for SSI at the moment. I knew a guy who pretended to hear ringing in his ears and managed to get government money, so I'll be a bit upset if I dont qualify with actual problems.

I do some reading on my own though, to keep up with the learning stuff.
