Need a Job?

The best way to find a good part-time job is to let everyone know you're looking for one and start searching!

SPECIAL NOTE:  Sometimes you can create your own job or small business by noticing what people need.  Ask yourself some of these questions to begin thinking of creating your own employment opportunities:

Do the people in your neighborhood need yard work or babysitting?  Dog-walking?  Errand-running?  Tutoring their young children or themselves in computer or internet knowledge?  How about being a personal fitness companion to keep someone on track with their running program? 

The possibilities are endless -- it's ALL UP TO YOU!!
