Waiting for Payday Remembering that I get paid today! was enough to improve any working stu- dent's day. The sound of spare change jingling in pockets, or having a few extra dollars tucked away— what a good feeling! Students took jobs for rea- sons such as school credit, money, or general and vo- cational work experience. Madison's career center played an important part in student job placement. Ap- proximately one hundred seventy-five employers and businesses utilized these placement services offered by the school. In a four month period, five hundred thirty work permits were issued. Students held a va- riety of jobs, with the largest per-cent employed in fast food service establishments such as McDonald's, Oak Creek Cattle Co., Jack-in- the-Box and Burger King. Second largest employers were businesses involving part-time clerical skills. Stock and delivery, and gas station attendants ranked third. Not all students earned money or credit for their jobs, yet those who did di- vide their time between work and school seemed pleased. As one student commented, Sometimes it's hard, sometimes it's fun working. I even feel independent! 9? Jobs
