I'm hoping to make one, and drop them in to some of my local Woolworths and EB Games and other shops like that.

I want to find somewhere which isn't too far away as well, which is why I think those places are alright, since I have like, 3 different Woolworths and EB Games within 10 minutes of where I live. I wouldn't mind getting somewhere a little further out though.

I think that's a fair distance for working. I guess I could go as far as catching one bus to a workplace, which is where my nearest JB Hi-fi is, which is good I guess.

I would like to work at a place close to where I live so I could simply walk to and from work.

I'd like to work at a place I can afford to commute to while still having a fair bit of cash in my pocket. It being a fun place to work would come second to the above because I kinda need to be able to afford to eat. Close to home would be ideal since that would mean I could commute home for lunch instead of eating out if I wanted to.

I know what you mean. I worked during the summer and made about $600, but I only work I've decided to only work summers until Senior Year.
During this summer and last summer, I helped my cousin around Hot Topic (she works as the store manager) . Next summer she will hire me part time.

I'd kill for some work. I'm a student with no income, but it's impossible to get jobs now. Especially with the economy here in Ireland having gone down the tube completely.

I thought Ireland was rebounding back? That sucks. I mean in America it could be worse than it is, but at least I can easily find a job in my area (for minimum wage), and if I get into a local college, I know that there should be a job for me on campus.
Aren't we all looking for jobs? :c
I'm hoping to get a job through my school's cooperative placement program this year, basically instead of going to school every other week, I would work full time in the field I've been studying in.

Literally everything is hiring where I live. Tacobell, panda express, best buy, gamestop, harry and david (a fancy grocery store), among others.
And these are just places that have had "now hiring" signs in their windows for a long time now. I'm sure there are plenty of others that I haven't seen.

I was until recently, then I got a seasonal job. Too bad I can't keep drawing unemployment.
Eh, I would just assume stay unemployed then work there. Fast food places are the last place I would want to work at. Even if they made me a manager at a place like that the most I would ever make is 10 dollars. I would just assume look for retail or restraint jobs.
OUT OF CURIOSITY, who qualifies for unemployment? I totally don't care for myself!
Well really, I live at home and don't plan to move out for a while so I don't have any reason to worry about my financial situation just yet. I'm even lucky enough to have a college fund. :D

Work at Harry and David or Best Buy.
Game Stop is a terrible place to work (friends as well as other people have told me that almost all managers are jerks), and you really shouldn't work in the Fast Food buisness. Not the best pay and you won't like what you are doing. Two summers ago, I pushed carts and stocked shelfs at Shoprite (huge supermarket company in NJ) and I enjoyed it so much, even though I only worked three hours a day, three days a week, making minimum wage.
I don't know about Best Buy, but I haven't heard any complaints about it.

Obvious one would be you must be a citizen of the United States and eligible to work. And you must be layed off or let go(basically same thing) from no fault of your own. I believe you must make at least 1,500 in a 3 quarter period within the time you were let go which is 1,500 within a 9 month period. I forgot the specifics, but it really doesn't take much. It also does not matter if it is full time or part time.
I've heard that about gamestop too. Best buy is apparently the same way though. I'm planning on getting a job at harry and david.
Forge papers, I doubt the unemployement office will notice.
I heard Gamestop over works their workers. I haven't heard anything bad about Best Buy, I know a couple people that work there some on the floor and some on Geek Squad.
