J O B...job
Oreo call you local Post Office or visist www.usps.com and look up under jobs. If you are 18 and can pass a drug test you can get a job making 16.45 and hour. You have to log on and see when they giving the postal exam in your area. You have to take the postal exam to get the job. They hire you based on your postal score for example you take the test and score 98 somone else scores a 99, they get hired in first then you. They hire until the list is used up. Anyone who scores a 70 or better is on the list. If they aren't hiring right now b/c they have an active list you can always get in as a casual. They pay around 10 and hour and you don't get benfits. It's a good secure job with excellent benifits. All you have to do is take the test. I did, and I'm waiting for my scores, should be in this week. I haven't smoked since I took the test and know b/c I studied for the test I will do well and get hired in quickly. Hope that helps. By the way the most exciting job I've ever had was as a Travel Agent. I didn't make alot of money, averaged out to about 12 an hour with hourly pay and commission combined, but the travel rewards were awesome. I traveled all over for a few years, and that was really cool. However I worked for small agency and after 9/11 I was layed off
SO anyway, now I'm going to work for the post office. Can't beat the money, and benifits without going back to college. I have three kids and I need to pay for their college so I'm not planning to go back at this time, but I won't say never,as I have gone to college I just didn't finish. I went to travel school completed that and that was all the farther I got with college. Hope that helps.
