Title: Money, Taxes, and a Job.. OH MY!
Post by: TeHFoOoL on June 13, 2006, 12:14:08 AM
I always wondered what it'd be like to like.. Work. I just applied to several different places, and it's like a weird feeling. Like, I'm losing my freedom so soon, or something to that degree.

Anyways, in order of my choice:
Subway- Sandwich Store: Good food, applied.
Jamba Juice- Smoothie Store: Popular, nice attiture, applied.
Ralph's- Grocery Store: Meh. EZ work. Applied.
Taco Bell- Fast Food: Hate the location, food is decent, only applying 'cause I know some noobs ( And some Newby's ) that love their food.

Why do you want to work in the food industry?

By the way, you're not 18, so you can apply for withholding and not pay much money to the government. If you have withholding, only a small portion of your paycheck goes to social security (7% iirc) and that's pretty much it.

Grocery stores are always easy work.  I started working for tips only 3 years ago and now I make $11/hr, you just have to have the incentive and show that you want to work.

Having a wife and daughter also gets you brownie points with the boss.

I was making right under $11/hr ( $10.65/hr ) before then, now I'm right over $11/hr ( $11.10/hr ), and that's because of the performance evaluation held every 6 months.

I'm not really, this shopping centre right next to me has all of those places. It'd be nice to have the option to walk to/from work. There are some other options that don't interest me ( Michael's ) some that I wanted to get in, but there's an age minimum of 17 ( Kohl's ) and.. Some I really want to get into, but are probably very full ( Game Crazy ).

In FL you can have a job at 14 :P. The maximum amount of hours I can work is low or something though.

That's because they have to rebuild 1/2 the state every year.
