Two Jobs= More $

I have the best job imaginable. I work only in the summers because the school year is so busy (as you can tell from my previous posts) but I love my summer job. I work at a local country club in the tennis shack. Even though it involves cleaning the bathroom every half hour, court maintenence, sweeping the clay courts 3 times, serving at events, and dealing with attitude, it's the best job for me. Tennis is a passion of mine, and being able to be around that everyday is really fun. I love working with people and playing my favorite sport, so it's the perfect combination.

My job is also great because there is really good food at the cabana by the pool. My co-workers and I call in and order them to bring us food to the tennis shack on our lunch breaks. =) I think that might be slightly illegal, but we don't have to tell anyone that. Another benefit of my job is that there is free golfing for us on Mondays? I have never taken advantage of this opportunity because I'm definitely not good at golf. I'm also intimidated by all of the guys that work in the pro shop. I've been told that the club has a nice but difficult course.

Though the club is great, I've decided to take up another job. I'm hoping to get 30-35 hours in at the club and 10-16 hours somewhere else. It's funny because I told myself never in my life would I work food service, but that's what sparked the idea of working at Beef o' Bradys which is a new restuarant that just opened. The concept of me working as a waitress is hilarious because I can picture myself already being the girl that can't remember orders, drops food/spills drinks on people, and forgets about the tables I'm waiting on. A safer option might be working retail at places in the mall. At the same time, this could potentitally be dangerous because being a teenage girl with discounts could create problems with the money I actually make.

Regardless of what second job I get, I'm hoping to do well at the current summer job I have, but also find a second job where I can get a little more hours in. I want to save up a lot of money before I go off to college so that I won't be poor and help my parents out with college costs.
