The Big Bad Job Issue

OK so as I have hinted in previous posts... I am poor. College is expensive, and I currently have no job except my seasonal jobs in Wisconsin, which don't provide quite enough income to last me all year.

So here I am... looking for a job.

Today I went to a little shopping center where I get my groceries. To scope out some places and tomorrow I will go to the mall to do the same.

PLACES I HAVE APPLIED:
Borders: both at the registers and in the cafe
California Pizza Kitchen: both locations near me
Sears: the girl I asked said that they were hiring right now. *crossesfingers*

Ok so there is that...

Back home I work at:
Point Ultra Screen Cinema -(Marcus Theaters)- Service Specialist
Bell, Geirhart and Moore- (Law Firm)-Summer Intern


One exciting thing about moving here is that minimum wage is 50 cents higher, minimum wage in Wisconsin was raised just this summer to $7.50.

NOW

Here are other options outside of a part time job of how I could make some money...

-Extra Work (need to find resources)
-Mystery Shopping
-Disneyland job

I need to look into all of those ideas and more.

When I get leads I will update.

This probably won't be my last post today...
