    I'm looking for a FT position for the summer... I have a 4 month summer (SAIT student) and am well versed in computers (also taking a computer course to formalize) any suggestions anyone?

    EDIT: I'm not really very well suited for "hard labour" either otherwise I would work in a warehouse (I can do hard work... but not the killer stuff) Also I love working with cars and my computer course also covers electronics, so I'm good with wiring, electronics, etc...

    work the city. Its pretty good money, I think you start at like 15 bucks n hr, and you only work like 4 days a week. A friend of mine did this and was in road cleanup or something. Sounded like they spent more time sleeping and playing playstation than actually working

    Get into a trade!
    I'm an electrician. Right now first year's are making $13.50/hour and up, and there is work coming out your ears.

    I'm a 3rd year now, and well over $20/hour, and I only work summers inbetween classes.

    It's not super-hard labour, much easier than warehouse work.

    when cut open, the rambutan unfortunately fails miserably to deviate from its outwardly testicular appearance, revealing an inside that looks for all the world exactly how you'd expect the contents of a scrotum to look.

    Apply to all the oil companies downtown. I got a job there, salary, $8,000 for the summer, and it was mega-slack. They can't or won't fire you for slacking, but they will not invite you back next year oh well! my job worked out to $12.53 an hour to surf the internet.
