Well next school year I have been offered a position as an R.A. (Resident Adviser) for the University I go to. Which means they pay for my room and board, while I kinda "police" the floor I am put in charge of. Also I have to do a floor activity each month, and make an informational bulletin board.
As for the summer job, I will be working with S & K Environment Restoration planting plants in a place that was once pretty much destroyed by the mining in the area (the Butte, MT area, look it up). I will be making $12/hr, working 50 hours a week (10 hours a day mon-fri with overtime). It will kinda suck, because the safety standards call for long pants, long sleeve shirts, steal toe boots, hard hat, and safety glasses. All times.

Woot. Didn't you say you could start autoing again once you became R.A or something like that?
At least now you will be able to buy your own ice cream.

yup, since I won't be paying for my electricity, I will be able to leave my comp on all the time, thus, being able to auto again!
And I buy my own ice cream now!

Omg you got your own ice cream. That owns.
Isn't 12 an hour kind of low? Just wondering. :)

My guess is that job is going to burn you out. I work on my grandfathers farm (which means we don't have to follow all that "safety" bullshit) but I know I would be burnt out if I worked 50 hours a week.

Plus with schooling he will be dead beat.
Well sounds like you need a beard again, any head person at a job needs a beard. It makes them look superior.

lol, no beard for the summer, that would kill me!
And i won't be working and going to school, working hard in the fields during the summer, then school and RA during the fall/winter/spring (school season)

I was going to suggest getting a beard again. The safety clothing would just go with it.

I sure hope that the people there are more interested in studying than having fun, otherwise you'll get fucked over :D
