Life in working lane becomes pleasant experience, not a E»A«D»A«C E !§ The bell rang at 3:15; it was time to go home, change into a tacky uniform and head to work. Traffic was dreadful and the time on the clock was tick- ing away. Tonight would be hectic, and the place would be packed with kids. Left behind was the trash for the workers to clean up. Such was the life of a working Cadet. Although students made money, working had its disad- vantages and uneasy moments. I was overworked and un- derpaid as a janitor, senior Steve East said. ' And it per- turbed me when trash was not thrown away. ' It really made me mad when people wouldn ' t be sat- isfied with their orders, soph- omore Monika Witmer said about her job at Jeff ' s Coney. The embarrassing part of working at Connie ' s Shoes was when it would take forever to find a shoe and then it would be the wrong color or style junior Kim Klausmeier said. Even though the disadvan- tages did add up, jobs were often fun and full of learning experiences. 1 felt so stupid in my uni- form; I had to wear a brown dress with a pink hat, sopho- more Jenny Bruckner said. Witmer said she learned new responsibilities while working. Working also en- abled her to meet and make new friends. Mot only were student jobs interesting, but teachers also found fun in what they did. The greatest part of my job was to watch a student say A- ha! I ' ve got it, ' Mr. Don Luepke said. — Tonja Zelt While working at Keltsch Pharmacy on Anthony, junior Wendy Qleave stamps the price tags onto the new candy bar, BarNone.

Red-eyed spider, Mr. Rogers adorn unique lockers, reveal LMVAOY Why not? senior Kristen Hershberger said as she ex- plained why she kept a black tarantula with red eyes in her locker. It was a different thing to do. Students kept unusual things like a Mr. Rogers post card, a Canadian Coke can, miniature boxing gloves, an exit sign, and road sign blink- ers in lockers. Many of the owners had no reason for put- ting them there; they just did it. 1 have no idea why I put blinkers in my locker, junior Chris Meisnersaid. I thought it would be appropriate. Unique decorations made oth- ers take notice of these lockers. So many people came up to me when they saw my Mr. Rogers post card and asked, Won ' t you be my neighbor? junior Diana Sheets said. It was fun to have people walk by my locker and say, Hey, you are weird! ' Hersh- berger said. Students found decorating lockers fun for different rea- sons. It was funny to see the looks I got from others, - ' Sheets said. When I saw the pictures I had put up, it reminded me of my summer fun, sophomore Sara Ay res said. Sophomore Royce Huffman used Fun Tack, a substance like silly putty, to put up his posters. It was fun to hear what people thought this stuff was, he said. Everyone thought it looked like a blob of gum or snot. What people put in lockers said something about them. People might have thought I was stupid or a thief, Meisner said, but putting blinkers in my locker showed I was humorous. — Sara Hebel Lockers Congregating by their lockers, jun- iors Duane Snow, Robert Knox, and Chris Lepper work on last minute homework assignments. Lockers were also a good place to get together with friends. Photo: Hebel
