It sounds like both of these jobs suck. I was a dish washer at an old folks home for about a month, that was not fun in the least. Get a job at a grocery store or something, anything union is good, they treat their people well. im assuming you don't have much experience??

Depends on where you live, back when I was in high school i used to work at Dominos, our drivers would get robbed more frequently then youd expect. But theres some tough neighborhoods round here so i guess it was to be expected. If its safe go 4 it. Id buy a beater tho just to mob around in for work and keep the camaro for what its been used for up to this point.

Might as well give up on looking for a job at a parts store. I work at one and I hate it with a passion.

[start rant]working in a union sucks ***. I started working at a grocery store as a bagger the day after my 14th birthday, and I had to become a union member. They took like 15% to 20% of my check out in "Union Dues" for some ******** union that didn't do jack **** for me, I was a measly bagger.. I didn't care about a Union. I got paid minimum wage, which also was not thanks to the union. After I worked there for 2 years, I left the grocery store and went to work at a retail store starting minimum wage (by the time I left, I had worked at Farmer Jack for 2 years, so I was at somewhere like 6.30 an hour) and I still came home with more money working at TJ Maxx at minimum wage working less hours than I did at Farmer Jack with union dues even tho I made more there. :banghead: [/end rant]

I've never even heard of farmer jack...

about unions... unions can be good or bad, depending on the union itself.

about the pizza...some places around here have delivery cars(if they are a bigger chain)but the smaller places make you use your own car.
