For most students, there never seems to be enough hours in the day, Yet Senior Susan Baker with the same twenty-four hours held down a job at the Marker restaurant for three years. Susan began at the Shera- ton Center as a hostess, but Looking at . . . Seniors Null 9 shortly became a waitress working up to forty hours a week including some sum- mers and holidays. Effective time management was a ne- cessity, but Susan felt that if you have the tirne, you have to decide what to do with it. Working was not without its beneHts though, the money earned paid for a trip to Italy and a new car. Susan also enjoyed her contact with people. Her most memorable experience was her participation in the Waiters Rafe at Springfest 1982. She had to uncork a wine bottle, fill two glasses, and carry both on a tray while running down the street dodging and hurdling obstacles. Susan placed fourth, winning a Hee dinner for two at the Marker. - Rebecca Reagan fb I C? jean Potts Stanley, NC Music Therapy Gail Reavis Deborah Rodgers Eli!!
