redleafSo it has been a long time since my last post, mostly because the term has been intense. But now I am down to only thesis work (yay!). More relevant to this post is that I will be unemployed come Thursday.
I have been attempting to find a job for the summer, but my off campus work permit is making it very difficult. I might rather live on ramen and spend as little as possible then make the job work out. The trick is the restrictions placed on the work permit itself.
Unlike an undergrad, I remain enrolled in a shadow class for the summer to "work on my thesis" and more importantly, pay them more tuition dollars. Thus, since school is in session for me over the summer, I can only work a maximum of 20 hrs a week off campus. This rules out most jobs except for retail . . . and if you know anything about me you know I am crap at retail. I also can't work in child care, k-12 education, or elder/health care. So definitely not picking up a nanny gig or working at a summer camp.
What I am trying to get is a full time on campus job, because that is allowed, there just aren't many of them available. and i'm not looking forward to working on campus all summer, and working on my thesis on campus all summer . . . . too much campus!
Wish me luck!
