07-28-05  Working off Campus

 

Hey gang!

It's that time again!  So a lot of folks have been asking me where I get the money from to do all of the things I do (movies, mall and anything else).  Well, the truth is I have to work and go to school at the same time.  Believe me, I don’t like it either.  But, since I had to get a job I figured I might as well have a good one you know?  I wish I could work on campus but I can’t.  That is what some scholarships can do to you.  (*sad face*)

On the weekends and one day during the week I work at Tuxedo Junction!  It

Demario's part-time job at Tuxedo Junction.

doesn’t sound interesting, who likes the thought of measuring people with smelly socks and pit stained t-shirts, NO ONE!  LOL.  But I really get passed that all.  I actually make commission when I sell tuxedos to people.  This is something that can happen like once a week, which is not bad.  Also, I do not complain at all when I am getting a paycheck deposited into my account every Thursday!!!  The paycheck can seem rather small (considering you should only work like 15-20 hours a week, if that) but it is still enough money to get by.

	As they say, "All work and no play...".

At Tuxedo Junction, I get to work with other  peo ple around my age in college.  This is rather fun because I am making so many connections with other people.  I’ve been hanging out with them more and more and who doesn’t like that??? (Wink).  Another reason why I like working at that store is because I play dress up to make time go by.  Look at me in this picture with this HUGE (Fuccillo Chevrolet HUGE) tuxedo jacket.  I was entertaining my co-workers in this big jacket pretending to be a choir director.  Quite funny, eh???

 

The Galleria Mall and workplace to many students!

 

 

Well that is all for now.  Are there any questions (London accent)?  Email me!  strickld@canisius.edu

See you next time!
