Below average jobs
this is not for me, but for a friend whos messed up his life, im helping him get back on track, starting by getting a job and starting a budget. He was not a very good student, graduated from the second best high school in Chicago, went to community college for a year then dropped out, so he doesnt have much of a resume. Here is a list that I have compiled, can you think of any other non-food industry jobs that you dont need much fo a resume to get?
- Best Buy - Virgin - Fed Ex - Walgreen’s - Target - Circuit City - CVS Pharmacy - Block Buster - Coconuts - Office Max - Kinko’s - Office Depot - UPS |

[/ QUOTE ] UPS drivers can make that much ($23+/hr with lots of overtime) and they have great benefits too. Problem is, in the short term he likely won't get hired for this highly sought after job. UPS only hires new people as part-time employees at $8.50 /hr in very physical jobs. It frequently takes several years to to become full-time at UPS but part-timers get full benefits. Its a good company but they drive their people hard; I was recently told that the average tenure for a newly hired package handler (the main entry-level spot) is 15 days. To the OP, if your buddy can make it past the first 60 days or so at UPS, the benefits are quite good, there is decent advancement potential and they will pay 20k+ for college so its a good deal. It's very physical work so the hiring process truly consists of them taking a group of people on a tour of the plant and doing everything they can to talk you out of interviewing. I gather that most anyone who wants to work there after the "recruiters" put the fear of god in you is allowed to start working. |

[/ QUOTE ] Don't they all really??? I too have *those* friends that have been "going back to school" for the last 4 years... UPS, make a career of it, be done. Every area seems to have large labor available, we have a huge Sony plant, UPS and FedEx plants here, surely something like that is available. |
