I got a job today as a sheet metal worker, building sheds and lockups. It was the easyist job I ever got. He asked me a couple of questions then said "when can you start?" lol.
Oh well, its been hard for me to get a job considering my work history so I'm gonna try stickin this one out!
Its good because I'm starting to get in debt with rent but its bad because I also have community service which I will have to do at the weekend.
Its gonna be work work work from now on.

Congrats! I graduate in June and then I lose my cushy work-study job and gotta find a real one..I'm worried.

Awesome man
I just got a job a week ago myself.. sometimes we've gotta give up that pleasant do-nothing lifestyle to actually attempt paying the bills..

I don't really know, dano! I'm an English major and in general I want to be a writer and travel to Japan, but I guess for the time being I'd like to work in a publishing house, for a music label, or for a movie production company. I've never had any sort of manual labor job really except when I was working out west for a photographer keeping his lab in shape. I don't think I'm too cut out for it!

Excellent work, I'm currently laid off and have a unemployment eligibility review tomorrow.
I think I'll apply for a fabricating job if I don't get called back soon.

Careful with sheet metal. It's some the most dangerous stuff you'll ever work with, besides electricity and fire.
A guy in one of my classes has about nine stitches in his favorite hand from a run-in with a piece of sharp sheet metal. From the way he talks about it, he's got some nerve damage too.
I guess the lesson here is to follow ALL of the OSHA regulations, whether or not your employer cares about them. It's for your safety, bud.
