Hey well atleast most of us have jobs. That is atleast one step in the right direction. As for pay I make 36k per year salary right now (about 18.75/hour) with three weeks vacation, 3% 401k payin, they pay my cell and internet bills, and full benifits. On my side computer jobs I make $40/hour and net about 2k every other month.

Yeah luckily I got in where I am now with no experience or degree. I started off doing help desk then was promoted to field technician and now I do full engineering work. I have been really lucky. The only reason I am going to school is basically so I will be worth more to my employer. It is in the end all about the money smile.gif . I was going to try taking four classes but decided to stick with 3. It may take longer to finish but I also wont go crazy...... Hopefully laugh.gif

I work 5 hours a week at a Kohl's store unloading trucks while going to school for 20 hours a week.

I am trying to get a job at a Honda dealership next to my apartment detailing.

I am a web designer and web developer. Income varies....somtimes I make only $1000 a month, somtimes I can make over $8000+ a month.

I am only 19, I have no degree..Ive allready built a pretty successfull bussiness in my first year out of HS. Best part about it? I enjoy what I do. I can chose when I want days off for the most part(unless theres a huge deadline or somthing)

I'm studying in University on my fifth year (we study 5-6 years). For my speciality I have to study 5 1/2 years. My speciality is prepress, desktop publishing.

It's hard to find good job here without working experience and especialy during studying.

Luckily i found a new job for the summer that pays higher (no benifits tho...). so we'll see how it goes

Ugh. I was in school for computer science/web design for 3 semesters and it was fun. Then I got a web design job and I HATED it. The assholes that ran the business still owe me $108. They obviously ran out of business because they always breached terms of contract with clients and had several lawsuits pressed against them. They made good money, but made it a hassle to pay me.

To boot im paid on salary so i was making about $4 and hr during the semester and only $1 an hr over the summer.....

Amazingly somehow i havent posted in here yet. Ive been watching it for a long time though. So i do work for a Law office, "The Law Offices of Richard E. Sexner" Its mostly a bankruptcy office but we deal with traffic and personal injury, divorce, etc. Its realy intresteing, especialy the people. Most popular car people own in bankruptcy's are Honda's and Mustangs. There are people with Corvettes, Audi Quattro's, And lotsa high end cars coming in who expect to keep thier car through bankruptcy, heh. Ive seen only one Tiburon owner file and it was for a old 97 RD1.
