I suppose you can say I work for myself on eBay.  I have been doing it for the past few years now, I like how I can pretty much decide how much work I want to put in, of course the pay reflects that though. 

I sell different stuff such as random things my friends want to sell, sometimes I find really good deals on craigslist where I can simply resell on ebay and make 30-40 dollars, and lately for the past few months I have had a sweet connect where this guy who owns a computer repair store sells me all his extra inventory for really cheap.

Textbook season is coming up to, lots of kids are desperate to sell their books and since bookstores pay them shit I can really cash in :wink:

If I could do this for the rest of my life I think I would be pretty happy.  Extremely laid back an I can do all work stoned as fuck (even though it seems to take twice as long). 

However I am in the second half of a engineering college now so I guess ill see what a real job is like fairly soon.




:strokebeard:
This seems like a good way to supplement income. I'm cleaning my place today, might as well see if there's anything to sell.

I have considered it, school kinda limits my ability to properly manage others, but maybe this summer I will really look more into it.  I have actually worked as a ebay lister for this one guy who paid me $10 + 1% commission but it didn't last too long, I think he may have figured out its not worth it to employ someone else.  Who knows though, maybe he just didn't have enough connects.

I've been out of work almost a year now.  i've been desperate for work since i got an associate's degree and got a certificate from a trade school.. all that means absolutely nothing to the companies who offer the jobs for which i have training though.  I'm hoping to go back to school and at least finish a bachelor's, but I can't do that until I get a job and make enough money to pay for it.

the job scene is so weak right now (here anyway, because there are thousands of people out of work, who have years of experience and they take every job that opens up in my field). my own uncle couldn't even hire me to his own company as a draftsman (which they really need) because his partner won't take on anyone without experience.  I've been trying to find unpaid internships or just work for free lately but every single one of the firms I've sent a cover letter and resume to have responded telling me that they are not legally allowed to have anyone work without pay and they don't hire people without experience. 

so if i can't even get hired to my uncles company to get experience, and i can't work for free to get experience, i don't know what the hell else i can do.  i'm starting to think i wasted 25,000 of my parents money on a trade school that can't even get me a job.

the worst part is that my girlfriend's mom (in Brazil) tells her that there are TONS of jobs for autoCAD draftsmen down in Brazil right now.  Only problem is, I have no way of funding a trip down there and no way to support myself until i land one of those jobs.  I would leave the US in a second if i could, this place is falling apart.

wow! is that even legal? i thought minimum wage was almost $8 now?  I once had a dish washer job that paid me a few bucks below minimum wage and their excuse was that i was supposed to be getting tips.. but no one tips dishwashers and the wait staff didn't pool their tips or give me a cut.  i quit that job so fast.  second to worst job i ever had.  its bullshit that they can get away with paying someone less than minimum wage because they're getting tips. tips aren't guaranteed. i hated that.

I'm a student.  I sold a lot of drugs and have been living off of that money for 3 years while working catering here and there(not parties every night ya know?) That money is finally running out though so I'll probably get a job after chrsitmas this next semester.  I've been blessed.

I tried the ebay thing but it failed for most part cause the selling fees were too much.  For college books its good though but i dont know if you can have guarantee client base for that all the time.

I do some guitar lessons though as ive posted before (great pay for the time put in) but im working on some other things

I work part time at my campus's rec center doing IT work.  Lately, we've been designing an online database so that every university's rec center supervisor can enter information about their facility (such as athletic programs and # of fields, etc) to benchmark their facility with others.
It's a cool job because I spend about half of the time messing around on the computer on Reddit or Facebook, or writing emails for classes.  The system design part is also interesting, but can be boring at times - like when I'm researching how to fix a problem or implement an upgrade to a system.

Next year I'll probably be doing IT Consulting or working in a large secondary mortgage company's IT department.

i work as a security guard and i hate my job with a passion.
ive been there almost a year now, im constantly threatened with termination/writeups for the most mundane and stupid shit on a daily basis.
the "work" is the most boring thing on earth 99% of the time im supposed to just be sitting there staring at a wall, instead i read, browse the shroomery on my cell and do homework.
that is about the only up side to the job, i get alot of reading done.
but i would take ANY other job that actually required me to do something, i hate just sitting there and watching the clock.

Yep, best paying job ive ever had, bonuses included, but i hate it. Boring office job. I like being productive and helpful, and i just sit and spin most days. But ive been here 3 yrs now, and hopefully will be here another 7 or so. It pays the bills. :shrug:




Same here. I've been at my office for 2 years now tho. And I can't stay for too much longer because though I make more than I ever have, its still not enough to support myself in this expensive city. Especially while paying off assloads of student loans.

How do i know ? all my coworkers are mexican, and i dont speak espanol too well.Still work is fucking great. When ur constantly doin shit the day goes by so fast. My other jobs paid more and literally required me to do one tenth of the work but going to work each day was hell because i knew i was in for a day in pergatory.
