I just got a new job today on my campus that pays $9.20 an hour unlike my $7.02/hr Subway job!! !

This means no more...
-Stupid uniforms
-Low pay
-Smelling like a sandwich every day
-Standing up all the time
-Working late at night

Yay, phuck Subway!

Awesome!

That's twenty more cents an hour than me.

Which based on a 40 hour work week is:

8 dollars a week more.
32 dollars a month more (depends on which month, some have 5 weeks, and February might be less).
416 dollars a year more.

If you could save that extra twenty cents for 35 years, you could end up with $14,560! Without interest!

YEAH, tell me about it! Each year IR will LOSE another 0.46 of value per hour each year! So you would need a nice raise, JUST to break even! Don't you just LOVE inflation!?!?(sarc)

Thanks, but I can't do 40 hrs a week due to my 16 credit hours.
But I do plan to attend law school after graduating, so this job is nothing long-term.

Oh, thanx everyone for the congrats
