I'm 17 and have been trying to get a job for almost a year without any luck but when it rains, it pours. Yesterday I had two interviews. One was for a small, reliable Italian place at $8.25/hr working Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday nights. Those hours suck.
The second job offer was to go door to door setting up free appraisals for roofing, windows and siding. It pays $10/hr plus a $20 bonus for every appraisal that I set up, and 1% commission on sales. I shadowed someone doing the job and they had 4 appraisals set up in the 3 hours I was with him. It'll probably average around $20/hr but they don't go out in under 32 degrees or during rain, so its somewhat seasonal. I have to work 4 weekdays after school, 5 hours per day minimum.
My parents want me to take the minimum wage job at the Italian place. I think they're nuts. To the minute helpful section of ns, what do you guys think?
