i'm going to college in august, but i can't find a summer job. nobody wants to hire someone who will just leave in 2 months anyways.

i'm living on campus next year and i have a meal plan and my parents are gonna pay for my books and all, so everything is taken care of.

but what about for fun? what if i wanna go out to eat with my friends, or go to a club, or go on a date?? i know im gonna get a job next year when i get to college, but what about that first month or so? i'll survive, yes, but i won't have fun at all!!

i have 166 bucks in my pocket.

fuck my life.

babysit, if you are good with kids. Thats what I do about money. I am a nanny on the weekdays, in between classes and I babysit occasionally for extra money.

Like everyone else said, if you can't get one now, get one on campus. The lifestyle is much different so getting a job won't be as bad as you think it is. It'll put enough money in your pocket a week where you could still go out and have fun.

Try and get one that you will keep when you get to collage...the job near collage...

or dont mention that your leaving in 2 months thats what i done,ill just give a weeks notice that im leaving and thats it

you can get a job now, just don't tell them you plan on leaving in two months.

and if you get a job whilst at college you'll do fine. loads of students have jobs and still manage to have fun - you don't have to work constantly, just enough to give you a bit of spending money.

It's not horrible hard to find a job if you are willing to do things you wouldn't normally do. I'd suck it up, get a job for 2 months and take some money to college.

Could you find a job near your school, so it appears like you're going to stay for more than two months?
