I'm looking at going back to school this coming fall to finish up my bachelor's degree as part of my long-term plan. I only have about 35 hours left, but due to some poor decisions earlier in my school career, I'm forced to take my classes in a very particular order and it's going to take me 6 semesters of 6-8 class hours each to finish up. This fall I would have class 5 days a week from about 1 to 4 (no other class times available). I'll have to quit my current job to make this happen so I'm looking for some suggestions. I need a job that:
-pays decently - minimum wage won't pay my mortgage
-works with my schedule - overnight is OK, but ideally I'd like something that starts in the very early morning (3-4 AM) and wraps up in time for my 1:00 class.
-is BK friendly - based on the current timeline we'll be filing in the next few weeks, figure 30 days to the 341 then another 60 to discharge, hopefully late April or early May.
I have several months to figure this out. My current boss doesn't know I'm looking. I'll have to let them know before the end of the school year so they can find and train someone new but I'm pretty much ready to make a move as soon as I can find somewhere else to go. Some options I've looked at and will be applying for:
-service station work - the local QT and RaceTrac stores always have "now hiring" signs up
-security work - my military background should help, if they don't care about the BK
-overnight janitorial work - not sure about the pay
-telephone call center, probably tech support (but not telemarketing, blech)
I can drive a forklift, I'm good with computers, ran my own retail store for a while, I don't mind hard physical work or being out in the elements. I'm not looking for a career move, just a college job for a few years. Suggestions? Thoughts?
