Any Job openings available?

sexxxappeal · 02-04-2008, 07:18 PM

Are there any students out there with jobs such as part-time assisting at a dental office, or serving food in a senior home, call centers, answering phone calls and office jobs? Help me out! I need a job ASAP and I'm sick of working in the food industry.. PS, please, part-time only.. still attending high school.

Absolutely hate it. Putting clothes on hangers, opening change rooms for people, dealing with snobby bitches demanding refunds.. Not my type of job. -.-

lols! my friend who used to work as a receptionist got so bored of it she went for retail/ planning to work in a retaurant now
its going to be hard finding a receptionish-style job if your still in highschool though
i know call centers (telemarketing) are definately hiring everywhere

lols really? care to explain?
my friend said she got $13 /hour + commision...

cheesegrater · 02-04-2008, 08:03 PM

a couple of my friends did telemarketing over the summer..
good pay, but not a very good job, since a lot of people they call are well "unappreciative" of them ahha.

one of my friends quit after a couple weeks though, he told me that someone told him to go die. LOL.

personally i would never go for telemarketing.

i got $8.50 + bonus. didn't get too much bonus excpet the first week though. i got a hang of it and did okay. i worked for a month after summer school and then school started so yea.
its fun though..cuz you don't have to do any prep work/dress up. once i just wore a big teeshirt & shorts like i do at home^^ LOL and i worked short shifts. It was automatic dialing so you didn't have to punch in numbers only the info. and the office was clean, air conditioned and you just sit there. very relaxing and your busy all the time. not like a receptionist where theres few ppl

DON'T GO FOR TELEMARKETING! it's a bunch of bullshit, really. easy peasy job but i honestly would never ever do it again. it's non-stop dialing with non-stop people hanging up on you. i totally do not recommend telemarketing as a job.

i heard receptionist is pretty boring too. oh, the fun of job-hunting!

Does your school have a work experience week? You could ask the career counsellor or something about it, and for possible volunteer opportunities in the places you listed, which would really help if you're going to go into that field later on.

haha,i was going to apply there with 2 of my friends because one of their friends work there. but she was saying it sucks `cause you're by yourself and at closing time you have to clean the floors and washrooms. i felt bad for her. haha im not sure if she still works there though.
