Add my name to the list..just got laid off from my teaching job due to low enrollment..I expected the end..but it's a blessing in disguise because now I get to finish my graduate degree in Special Education..and collect my unemployment with ease
However..I have always been lookin for a Social Studies/Special ed. job for the past two years so I wasn't too disappointed..just sucks because I wanted to leave on my own terms and not there's ya know what i mean?
I have an interview for a teaching assistant position with an Autistic program on Tuesday..but the pay for teaching assistants is horrible..and I know i would have to get a second or third job to make what I did last year..so I applied to Best Buy..and Best Buy called me back yesterday requestin an interview
..I do have over 5 years of customer service experience..so that could b my second job if I get this teaching assistant position..
How much does Best Buy pay sales associates outta curiosity?

Just out of curiosity...are the people posting in this thread that have received minimum wage to $10-11 per hour job offers college graduates?
I graduated in 2008 with a bachelor's. Been working since then full time @ $13.00/hr. up until recently. Now it seems as though all I can find is measly $10.00/hr jobs. Have any college grads swallowed their pride and worked for $10 or under?

Wow $10 an hour for a college grad is ruthless. Graduated '09 and making way more than that, depends on your field. Try contracting jobs or temp-to-perm.

This may have already been answered, but has anyone been given a good job through a career advisor or job agency? There is one about 30 min away from my house and I was thinking about going there to see if they could help me out. I need a job but I'm not trying to work retail

This is my personal opinion, but I hate, hate job (staffing) agencies. They take way too big of a cut of your salary, and when you work you're working for them and not the company that you're working for.
I guess it's not a bad idea to check it out, but just be sure to listen carefully and make sure they're not robbing you of your salary.

If you need a gig that bad then go for it but like acidicality said, they take a huge chunk of your wages. They work on commission so they'll literally give you anything. If you aren't willing to take what they offer, they become more hostile and unwilling to work with you from what I've experienced.
