Need a Litte Help

[DanielZ]

I am moving to Fort Collins on Thursday to start my freshman year of college at CSU and have a little problem. I have no job there and almost no money saved up. If any Fort Collins members or anyone with connections up there can get me a job interview or anything at all I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys!

Whatcha looking to do? What kind of hours/days?

 

[DanielZ]

Anything that earns me a paycheck is a possibility. My earliest class starts at 11 am and my latest gets out at 4 I think. And as for days, I'm pretty much open to anything.

Hit up some tire shops bud. Its about 5-6 weeks form being the crazy season and they almost always hire up to compensate for the extra load...... just an idea

 

[DanielZ]

Thats not a bad idea! any other out there?

It's been over 20 years since I lived there, but I'll ask some people I know.

pop into the financial aid office, Daniel... you might find a "work-study" program that not only puts a few bills in your pocket, but maybe even gets you some credits for the effort. Not all work-study programs are part of the fed financial aid package, there are usually some stand alone department-type work available. good luck in semester 1!

He doesn't qualify for work study.....Don't even get me started on that mess.

I still recall there being some "work-study" opportunities from underfunded departments when I was in school -- maybe not for credit, but there should be some on-campus work opportunities that aren't tied to fed funds that should also be interesting...

Might not be the most glorious job but I would def. check out being a stocker for wally world. You could probably swing a part time evening shit easily. With the school hours something like that is what you need to be looking for instead of business's with 9-5 hours. Not sure what distribution centers are in Fort Collins but might want to look around for those as well.

Rumor is a costco is going in the near future. Not a fix now but a good job to have cause of the pay and benny's. Also they work around your school really well. Just a plug for the future. Good luck.

quoted for truth -- finding time for a bathroom break with a busy class schedule and be a real hassle... :anon:

 

[afbond03]

Awesome.

Interested in outside sales? Make a little cash and good way to meet chicks...

Daniel,

I sent you two PM's. I still am waiting to hear from a couple of my friends in Ft. Fun.

Daniel,

Good choice, you'll love it up here in Fort Collins. Let me pull some strings and see if my old tire shop is hiring at all.

Daniel can't get online easily right know. Apparently they are having some issues at his dorm.
