Better paying part-time jobs?

[Kathleen04]

Hey everyone,

I'm looking to find a new part time job. I was wondering if anyone had any ideas for something that is one step above retail and doesn't require too much previous experience. The only idea that I've come up with myself so far is being a bank teller. Anyone else have any ideas?

Thanks. :)

1. Organizer

Clean out people's crap and charge them for it. I have a couple of friends who do it, and you would not believe the $$$ they make - and the crap they haul home and sell on eBay.

What a great racket. If I weren't so lazy, I'd get into it, too.

2. Interesting idea

My first customer would have to be myself. :+

3. How many hours are you looking for?

I once worked for a florist on the weekends. A high end florist that did most of the black tie events. They paid me well for the little amount of time. I would go in the mornings, help prepare for events, load the van, set-up event. I'd be done in the morning and have the rest of the day. Then we would go back after midnight to break down and pick up the arrangements. The florist paid double time for the break down and I could keep the flowers. My house would be filled with beautiful bouquets. I almost did it for the flowers alone!

4. I'm thinking approx 20 hours a week

but I'm also a full-time student so it doesn't matter if it pans out to be less. Looking just for more $ value to the time really. :)

14. waiting tables/tips?

It was always better than retail for me - plus getting meals.
