i just got my first job at a nearby amusement park. it's pretty boring and it's hot out, but it's not difficult. i run a rock wall and this game where people sit in a boat and shoot balls at other people.

the people i work with are not exactly the kind of people i would want to be friends with, but they're nice. the coversation is a bit monotonous; mostly we discuss girls, cars, and drugs. sometimes we play poker when nobody's looking.

the only really big downside to my job is that i have to stand up for 8 hours on end.

but i do enjoy having money.

Yeah the standing would suck.
My mom's a bank teller so she stands all day long, I feel bad for her :(

i worked at a record store for a summer and had a similar experience. trash talking each other, laughing at peoples music choices. sometimes even physical contact.

Hahah I'd probably make fun of people's music choices too :D
I wanna work at a record store, then maybe I'd meet people who actually like the same music as me...

you and me both need jobs.

good luck!!

ummm wow, standing up for eight hours, toughen up people, it isn't difficult unless of course you are para or quadraplegic

Aaron Cometbus used to work at Kinko's. he wrote a piece about working the night shift.

I just deiced that I want to get a job at a movie rental place, like Rodgers or Blockbuster. That'd be pretty sweet...

My girlfriend in highschool had a job at a movie rental place. She saw every movie ever made because that's all she did--sit there and watch movies all day.

Hahah I wanna work there so bad now. :D
I love watching movies...

you clearly have never seen "The underground comedy movie"
Seriously i'm really not exaggerating this is the worst movie EVER!
you've been warned

yay! got the job at subway, orientation tommorow.
+ i got a job interview for a different job on wed, hopefully ill be working two jobs this summer.

if i hadnt gotten the job i was gonna go to some movie places, i went to one but they werent hiring.

i had a friend that worked at blockbuster and he got to rent all the movies before they came out, they preferred he and other employees did that so they would be in-stock when they hit the shelves

YAY! Good for you!
Hahah I keep wanting to call you Thurston...

hows the job hunt going?

how are you liking it?
i have been working for subway for about a month now, its better than monotonously washing a never ending pile of white dishs in which customers mush their food into an edible paste and smear across the dish before returning it to the waiter. but not much better. i mean at least they dont have deep fryers...

the fact that the white chocolate macademia nut cookie is 220 calories slightly depresses me.
but nutrition information always does, the "skinny bitch" wouldnt have it any other way.

It's been going alright, I haven't make very much progress though :rolleyes:


Those are such good cookies! Oh how I love them :p

i like subway, havent had a chance to try their cookies but i love macademia cookies. at first my feet were pretty sore from standing all day but you get used to it.

I get one of those white chocolate chip macadamia nut cookie dough packs by Nestle every couple of weeks & bake them all up to perfection over a few days time... Delicious...

i've worked at 3 different subway stores...& thankfully it's my only experience with fast food (besides my first job at Dairy Queen for a day)...i would have customers come into subway & literally make me put half a container of mayonnaise on their sandwich...disgusting. Their cookies & bread are pretty good. I haven't been to one in over two years, but when I used to go I would always get the Spicy Italian like kegmama recently wrote (not the BMT with bologna) ... I dig the banana peppers big time. I used to save the little stamps on the card for the free 6" sub too.

I dreamed I had to take a test . . .

at a Dairy Queen . . .

on another planet.

Mother Tuckers is hiring, and it's right by rideau. Bad part is is that they're only hiring dishwashers now I believe. If you want, just PM me and I'll send you my resume template, and just replace my information with your own

Haha I would never be able to get downtown everyday. Thanks though :D

Job a job? I swear this said get a job earlier. Is someone pulling a fast one on me? What the hell?
