STUDENTS WITH JOBS rr hey Work Hard for the Money Teachers and parents are always telling us that school is our job until we graduate. Therefore, anyone working part-time in addition to go- ing to school all day is indeed moonlighting. Why do we moonlight? Let ' s think about that for a minute. Is it the prestige of carting groceries to peo- ple ' s car trunks? Or is it the powerful feeling we get when we say, May I take your order, sir? Maybe it ' s how good we feel about ourselves when our bosses give us little self- improvement lectures on punctuali- ty. No, let ' s face it, it ' s the paycheck! Aren ' t we all money-grubbers at heart? Sometimes, though, all the fun, friends, and school activities missed make money seem relatively unimportant. However, without the experience we gain from jobs (which will be one of the things a future employer will look for), our first step into the real world could be quite a rude awakening. What a bummer it is to make plans to go somewhere and then have to cancel because we forgot that we had to work. It ' s even more of a royal drag to have a few days off of school and then find out we have to sub for the person we least like at our job. Truth be known, paying taxes is probably not high on our lists of things we ' ve always looked for- ward to do. On the flip side, when we do find time to go out with our friends, we have a lot more cash to wave in front of them. Unless, that is, our parents make us stow it all away in the bank. Let ' s cut them some slack though. We do have futures to think about. No, not hog futures — our futures — and money in the bank could give us a big head start when we ' re out on our own. So remember this when a juicy job offer comes up: Money can ' t buy true friends or happiness, but hap- piness and the truest of true friends aren ' t putting us through college, either. 26 Student Life Part-time Jobs

While displaying her dancing yearbook talents for patrons at the Harrison Branch Library, jill Wagner returns books to their proper places. Tracy lohnson cheerfully folds a mini skirt (lill Wagner ' s sister ' s Christmas present) so her Marshall’s customer will be pleased. After placing a loaf of bread and a carton of eggs at the bottom of the lewel ' s bag, Scott Lindholm searches for some canned goods to add to the collection. Student Life Part-time )obs 27
