Anyone in year 11-12 have a job / if so what job /? (1 Viewer)

15-20 hours a week at Bunnings... It's alright, the pay is decent, and I need the money to save for schoolies.

I started my first and only job bout 2 weeks after the HSC ended. I know that a job during the HSC would've just been a burden. My time was my time, so if I needed to do an assessment there wasn't a job or a cranky manager to worry about. However, I think someone mentioned that they need a job to keep them sane, and I can see how that would be true (its definitely the case for me and uni at the moment, if it wasn't for work I would have had a breakdown!). So if you need the job as a little diversion, I suggest keeping it to 1-2 shifts a week of no more than 5 hours each. Hehe theres my 2 cents.

Yeah I work between 5.5 - 9hrs a week at the local, and only, newsagent. Quite boring but it beats having no money

i heard bunnings is really crappy.. like not good pay and too much standing around and not moving, my friend tried out Bunnings but he stuck with HJ's

im in year 12, i work at the scg/ aussie stadium sometimes doing customer service/cleaning. pretty good pay, casual job so i can say no to shifts and i get to watch sport and have a break from studying

 

[kochou]

i wish i had an interesting job like that..

i'm in year 12 too, 8hrs every week at a chemist - THE boringest job ever. And i used to work at maccas during the holidays but the pay is (relatively) crap it's not worth going unless it's public holiday

 

[glycerine]

oh no I used to work at aussie stadium/scg... frodo, you ever worked stadium 17 at the scg? i got put on there like every single fucking shift and it was the worst one, constantly busy (like never slowed at all), had some bitch named rachel i think as a supervisor and was in the yobbo section...
I didn't mind working football etc... cricket was just a pain in my ass cuz you never knew how long you'd be there

Wow, like all these other threads the responses are so sad. You can easily do 20+ hours of work and still get a 'good enough uai'.

I did 3 NIGHTS a week while doing the HSC and got 95+ UAI.

Now i am working 5-6 NIGHTS and going to uni full time.

$ is a golden drive.

[nessie_lee]
