So, for those of you on here that have jobs, where do you work? What do you do there?

I work at Noodles & Company (fitting, no? ;)), and I'm the dish bitch/grill boy. It kinda sucks, but it's my first job, and pays semi-decently for it ($7.55/hr), so yeah, can't complain-- and I get free food too! :D

I am still looking for one. I used to be a cashier at a local supermarket, but I couldn't stand it. It drove me nuts, and I was always in a bad mood. So I quite after about three and a quarter months.

I work at a summer program for kids in my town. Kind of like a summer camp but on a much smaller scale (ie few hours a day). It's basically 6 hours of chasing kids for minimum wage. Not the greatest gaining job :P

I currently work at a concrete/brick production plant, basically I sweep floors and load trucks every day from 8 am to 6. It sucks. the only good thing is the pay. 8.50/hr (in a state with 5.15 min wage).

I hate the job and I am grumpy and tired at the end of every single day, but I have to stay here because my parents are making me.

I am/was/sometime (when needed) a Cashier at Kroger (grocery store) for the past 5 years! I finally topped out at the highest rate of pay (til our union raise) of $14.95. which isnt bad.. but took 5 years to get there....started at $6.15....maybe now ill try for customer service. I only work when they need the help right now tho...cause of school full-time...and helping out my 91 year old grandma rest of the time hah!

Right Now I'm working at a local mall-based small electronics store.. probably similar to Radioshack in the states... and studying for Certificate/Diplomas in Computer Network Management this year and the next.

I get paid the equivalent of US$9.50/hr in general...
I love it. Easy, lots of stuff to screw around with, generally the day goes fast and you don't have to do that much.

Practically full time now, money's good, the jobs good, the people are great, the company's great.

I work at Gamestop. The actual job, I cannot complain. The pay is decent [going up to 7.55 + my raise should be like 7.65]. However, I get like 3 hours per week.

I would still work there, get less money, than go to a job I liked a whole lot less and get slightly more money.
