I earned good money (like $10 an hour) as a customer service desk employee at a mall. Most of the time is spent just sitting aorund watching people but i got all the mall discounts (instead of just working at one store) and free food from food court and cute girls come by and talk to me whenever. It was a good job all around...too bad i got fired

why'd you get fired?

for not doing work

Work at Best Buy. You will get to meet a lot of people.

Yeah, that's a good idea, until they say they need you to work 40 hours a week when you're parttime, and you say no, and they say bye.

Last job I had made that requirement. I'm still in negotiations with them as they want me to stay, but I can't offer them much time. College = little free time.

Yeah, it was never a problem for me, and they technically can't fire someone for that because they are parttime. But when I worked there I'd see parttimers who were working 20ish hours a week go to almost 0 hours a week because they wouldn't agree to work fulltime hours.

Yep. You had to review scanned physical pieces of paper and type out the pertinent information and build a database of it for the client. Most projects were huge bundles of hundreds of papers. But you had a few days to finish each one.

How did you hear about it? I'm thinking of applying as a part time job because I have a lot of free time! Seriously, this would be awesome for part time work.

I heard about it from doing searches for online jobs that weren't scams. There aren't many. Unforunately they're not hiring now. Damn, it makes me mad. I was so close and it seemed so awesome, and I THOUGHT I already had it in the bag, since she said my age was fine, I filled out everything and faxed it all in, I was already techincally "hired."

But, they never actually said "you're too young." The lady told me on the phone that perhaps I'm too young, and told me to call back a few days later. I tried for weeks and never got ahold of her again, only her voice mail.

I have a funny feeling I'm in a similar situation to Orsorum. Right now I'm at a cashier at Sears which pays $6.20/hour for doing next to nothing (usually not busy). I'm okay with that. But next year, at school, I really would like to do something that would earn me more, and no on-campus job is going to offer that. Even if it would, it'd suck up 20+ hours/week of precious time. So something to do from the comp sounds miraculous, but impossible. The only thing that seems to work for people is selling on eBay, and I just don't think I have it in me to do that.
