My Summer job search... EmptyThu Apr 02, 2015 11:06 pm by Burkman
It's depressing to see how inactive it has been recently. I mean, everybody is pretty much primarily posting in the never ending thread now and there's not enough people here to make this place really booming. We need to find some way to bring more people here before this place just fades into nothingness...

I know for a fact that a lot of boards out there are thriving because of how many people are there. We just need to get back into the game and pull people here. However, where we obtain these people might matter, because we don't to end up pulling in douches like those at Selkath.

I understand that people are busy these days, but it doesn't seem like they're rarely at their computer anymore. I know most of you are still dicking around with your computer. I don't know how we …

retail sucks ass. it will seem ok for a bit.. then you slowly forget what you want to do with your life and then you find yourself in your mid 20's and only in middle management goin WTF HAPPENED?!?!?

Go do summer work on a Farm. Learn the meaning of hard physical labor. Trust me, its 10x's better working outside busting your ass than to be in retail.

Seriously though. I did retail for a few years and was just growing complacent. Got fired and moved out of state and got a job at a Tree Nursery. Best experience EVER! Other than the day after binges and whatnot i really didnt mind goin in to work. I would be told what im doin for the day and then go do it. All alone. On a 5200 acre farm. Work for 12 hours with just me my thoughts and the outdoors. I had a ton of time to reflect and think.

Construction and appliance repair pays decent... my hotel and gas station jobs never really have (but those were part times). I've never worked retail... like for a department store or anything. Nor have I worked at a restaurant And I got enough work on farms growing up. Since I lived on glaciated soil there was never an end to the rock picking in the fields (which was ok at $50 a day). Maybe that's why I like rocks today... Wilbz

Don't worry. When you turn 21 they're want to know what the hell you were doing that you weren't working.

P.S. Talk about school.

P.P.S. Don't tell them you have been to interviews as often as you have.

P.P.P.S. If you figure out some magic advise please tell me.

P.P.P.P.S. No, seriously. I am dying from NOT having a job. Someone give in already. I'm better than that idiot you did hire. -_-

P.P.P.P.P.S. No, this isn't the attitude I show them. However, it is factual that I'm superior than many competing persons. Granted, anyone with common sense is brighter, but I digress.

No place would even interview me except the couple of times taco bell and mcdonald's were doing quick interviews of anybody who showed up... like a hiring day.

That was until I applied at the place my brother worked... and he mentioned me to someone there... bada bing, bada boom, they interviewed me and hired me in less than a week.

I really get the feeling employers don't really give a shit who they hire. It's all 50/50 for them anyway, so they roll the dice. I'm sure some people come out lookin a lot better when they got a job history and do a good interview, so they take that guy, but again... they don't seem to give a shit. If you know somebody there who isn't one of the "bad ones" and they say you're applying there, they're like "sure, why the fuck not".

I was hired at Hardee's/Carls Jr because of Affirmative Action.
