Like I said most normal people like me and can only dream of $22 a hour. I consider that to be a massive fortune. You need to get back to reality and realize not everybody is rich like you.

[dennis580]

Hell I can only dream of having your previous job of $11 dollars an hour plus tips. I would consider myself a Deity if I had a job like that.

[dennis580]

The most I have ever made is $6.65 an hour with no tips and no chance at getting overtime pay.

Hmm, well, that sucks. You said you were 14 right? ask your parents for a new comp for Xmas. Feed em BS about all the useful things you will do on it, and say things like you will help pay for it, or if they buy it now you will pay them back later (if your lucky you will never have to hehe)

[dennis580]

No I'm 24 and $6.65 is the most I have ever made per hour.

And there are plenty of jobs that you can do part time that pay a lot: Doorman or Bellman, job sucks but its $8-$12 + tips. Waiter in a nice place, pay + good tips. Fixing computers... you dont have to be a rocket scientist... I mean like instaling a network card for some 40 year old women whos scared of computers.... people have jobs like that where thats one of the harder things they have to do... that makes plenty. Work in a comp usa or something... not great pay but hopefully u get reduced costs on thier inventory.

Those are available jobs in YOUR city/town. Last I checked, I don't live where you do.

Sorry.. someone else on this or a similar topic said 14..... look guys, I'll say again, Im not too far above average inteligence, PLUS im lazy, If I can do it, you guys can find a way, and computers prices are dropping like a rock. Go to www.sharkeyexteme.com They tell you how you can build your own well preforming, but cheap PC. Look at the cpu listings... a 900mhz Athlon Tbird is $47.... thats 3X civ req. http://www.sharkeyextreme.com/theguide/value_game_pc/ Take a look at that. Subtract the monitor price, operation system (use your old one or get if from a friend) subtract the "little extras" and thats like 500-600 dollars. You can also look on ebay or something. My computer is a p3 750 256 megs of ram Geforce 2 and Im going to be buying a new one this winter. I'll bet the most I can get for my computer is $200 when I sell it. You cant afford that?

[dennis580]

Hell all the waiter jobs I know are mininum wage jobs. I have no clue where I could even get a job being a beelman or doorman and make $8 to $12 dollarers a hour plus tips.

I guess you still don't get it. Most people simply are not able to get a job like that. Also I don't have any techincal experince to work on computers. I have no idea what a network card is hell I had enough trouble installing a fan into my computer. That's why I'm not able to upgrade my computer because I wouldn't have the knowledge to do it.

Really Sad, Just plain sad, You really dont got any future do you.

[dennis580]

Building my own computer would be way above my head. Like I said installing a fan in my computer is quite a accomplishment for me.

Yea it sucks to be poor and not have a future, but that's how life is for many people.

[dennis580]

Do you know where I had to work to make that $6.65. I had to work as a housekeeper in a NURSING HOME. They made sure the housekeepers didn't get any overtime money either. I can tell you it's no fun working as a housekeeper in a nursing home. This job absoloutely sucked.

My situation is only temporary. As soon as I'm out of college, I'll have the freedom to move out of this town and get a better job. Until then, I have to live with very limited choices.

possibly its your fualt you dont know how to install parts in a comp? its REALLY easy, I didnt know how 6 years ago but now I do. Wanna know another easy way to make $? Go to ebay.com, look at people selling Diablo 2 items. YES PEOPLE ARE SELLING COMPTER GAME ITEMS. I saw a poison damage charm (not too hard to find) go for $50 Certain items go for $800 + granted, the high priced ones are very hard to find, but you can make money playing a game.... My friend sold his Ever Quest account for $3300. These are some ideas.... theres always lots of ways to making money.
