Another job to look into is internet tech support. Some areas have a large need for that, and I noticed your considering networking. I did internet tech support for about 8 months one time. They started me at $9/hr and moved me to $10/hr when i became more comfortable with the job. AND if your into getting a networking degree, there is always a need for a good networking guy at an ISP. My boss even tried to teach me some stuff so I could maintain and fix the network when I worked the night shift at the ISP. Just something I threw out there.....

Delivering pizza can be good, if there is enough work.
And as long as you don't live in the hood. t isn't worth risking your life to deliver pizza!

yeah but at least you can enjoy your system while your working :P I woul love it if they would let me pull my truck into the shop at work, I think I could drown out the routers, m11's and screw guns.... don't know about the cry baby's though all that noise just makes people wine louder and harder.

only if you're getting gas money... other wise its more of a waste.

Keep in mind, small town. The restaurant doesn't make a ton of money, doesn't require a lot of effort, people don't have to make as much to live here. Openers/closers make $5.75, others make around $5.25-5.50 depending on how long they've been there.

Have you thought about delivering pizzas, while you are in college. I'm 24 probably have quite a few more bills to pay and do so easily. My base bay is $5.25 an hour, but with tips added I make atleast 12.00+ working fulltime hours. That is with atleast 15 hours of working during the day which is not good at all for tips, because I take almost no deliveries. For instance 1 in 6 hours yesterday.
Oh, yeah during football season especially highschool, because HS football is big where I am from, I easily make over $20 an hour on Fridays. Contrast that with fast food where your gettin slammed and making nothing extra.

they make $9-$10+ here... for shift managers. but going through college i'm basically going to need a night job.. thats what i like about mcdonalds. i could go get a job at the paper mill and work nights... but i'd probably be tired the next morning.:P

They make a whopping $6 here. $6.50 after you go through a years worth of McDonald's corporate BS training. For comparison, a closer makes $5.75. Pathetic for what you have to do. They do make more in larger towns, but so do the regular employees.
