Well, I picked up 20 hours at banana republic. Any of you guys need a sweater?

longknocker · 01-28-2010, 03:21 PM

Congrats, Blake! More "Habanos"!

Twenty hours is a start.If you're dependable and show up if called in,you'll see more.

My Son has been looking for a job with no luck...

20 hours is about all I'll be able to work being a full time student. I probably won't be looking to pick up more hours until the summer...

Perfect setup then

My son graduated from College in December and not a single person in his major has found a job yet. It is as tough as I have ever seen it out there and just be glad you got any job. There are people with 10-20 years experience in many industries applying for entry level positions and that is just destroying what little market there is for new graduates.

markem · 01-28-2010, 03:37 PM

Congratulations, Blake!

G G · 01-28-2010, 03:41 PM

Tell them you'll be needing the 2nd Saturday of each month off for "study group".

we'll see. I'm actually saving for a much larger "future" purchase. Kinda ranks pretty high on the priority list. I might get rebuked by some of the fellow inmates if I were to say what though
