New Job, Oh How I Love It

So, I'm a poor college student for those of you that don't know. But thank god, I'm done with classes, so now I'm just working on fixing the poor part of my identity. Specifically, working a full time summer job.

Yes, it's minimum wage. But you know what? It's full time, and appears to be some of the easiest work I'll ever have. I'm working in "Facilities" which is a fancy way of saying glorified janitor. I clean up the universities apartments and dorms essentially. Paint some walls, vacuum floors, dust things, all that fun stuff. It's surprisingly independant work. They basically just drop me off, then make sure everything looks good when me and the guy I work with call in to say it's done. No boss breathing down my neck except for during check-ups. With that said, the boss is picky. But eh, can't have everything. It's a damn laid back job, and it'll cover my rent for the next year. I consider it a win.

How about you guys? What sort of work you have lined up for the summer? (same old job you've done for 10+ years?) Let me know in the comments!

  4. Awesome sounding job. When I was in school I worked in the library, pretty much just goofed off in the stacks most of the day.

  5. Congrats, I'm done with finals as well.

    I'm currently looking at working my old high school job at the military mess halls (Clean dishes, wipe tables, sweep, mop for $16.34/hr) until the government ends the hiring freeze and the money is allocated for my summer internship
