Being in college you should be able to find a job in your field.

i make 13 bucks in hour in watertown, SD and im sure ill be getting another raise here in a couple months. i work as a robot welder and soon (hopefully) move up to night Robot programmer which should mean a few dollar raise.

I get a new raise every March when our new fiscal year comes out. I have been working for nearly 7 years for this company, and March of 07 I will have nearly doubled my starting salary due to raises. BTW, what did you do for the military?

You can always look into the Department of Defense, or the Federal Aviation Administration. They both take into account a 5 point preference. That means that you were honorably discharged, you get first shot at the job rather than someone off the street.

check out this website: FAA Jobs

You might find what you are looking for there. Hope things get better for you in the future! And congrats on the job.

The pizza delivery gig is pretty decent while I am in college. Actually, being a tipped worker they only have to pay me about $4.15/hr. I will check the government stuff someday. I actually get 10 point preference because I have a service connected disability.
