    I got my first job...

    I am excited...

    I am working at a verterinarian hospital. I only get to work for like four hours all day (two in the mornin and two at night), but these are summer hours I guess.

    Also...the vet said the pay isn't that good, but it's more than I get now. It's a way to feed my adictions without selling stuff.

    Lastly I have the worst job there, but it's all good.

        Eh, I guess a job is a job... How much are they paying you?

        I just got one teaching little kids to swim at the beach/pool/rock quarry converted to swimming. A lot of them cry when they get water on their face, and mostly I just hold them up on the water surface while they go through the motions. Today a bunch were getting cold and shivering, one little girl latched on and wouldn't let go of me for like 10 minutes. It was a little awkward.

        I work from like 8:30am-11:10am and then from 5:45pm-7:20pm for $6.50/hr on 5days of the week.

            put a bunch of kittens in the microwave so we have something to talk about tomarrow when on the news they say "DERRANGED TEEN GOES APE**** AT VET"

            then they will blame your music and we'll have a great discussion about how we knew you back before you were a psycho

              Don't talk to me about bad lifeguarding jobs for little pay.

              I'm interning with the City this summer (bureaucracyxinfinity) and the junior lifeguard program. I see idiocy from these kids normally reserved for the clinically and legally insane.

              Today alone:
              -kids confused longboards with nipperboards. they're VERY different.
              -we had two girls who couldn't kayak. Literally, after 40 minutes of instruction, STILL could not kayak.
              -I had a kidlet attach to my arm because the waves were too big and the water was too cold (he was barely waist-deep in water)
              -I towed a whole bunch of kids who were in a rip. 10 minutes later, where are the little idiots? back out in the rip.
              -we had a mass jellyfish/stingray panic.

              And that was just today. I have four more weeks of this. 8-4 or 9-5 every day.

                Oh the woes of lifeguarding/swim instruction.
                I did both for three years--best and worst job I ever had.

                            Fishy, too bad you weren't lifegaurding at where I work. $9/hour and you do NOTHING. Just sit in your big high chair and get a tan. Sometimes I like to go hang out with them when I'm supposed to be working.. heh. I don't work. I do other things and get a check for what they think I'm doing

                              This is sweet...I just realized in like 5 weeks I will have about $440 to work with to buy a new gun. I hope one of the electro frames for mags comes out so I don't have to buy a dirty angel

                              BTW: What does anyone know the minimum wage for Wisconsin?
