whats abetter deal working at Shell (chemical plant) and making 8 bucks or working somewherelse and making 10?

Question

while still in school

these jobs would be for co-op in school and the ten dollar job would be as babysitter and two of those hours would be working at a medical center as a filer but i think shell is a big opportunity.....what do yall think

im 17 years old ...neither of these jobs have benefits......because im part time........

Answer 1

Lots to consider:

Benefits package (deductibles on medical, dental?, etc)
Danger of the chemicals produced in the plant
Length of commute
family issues--flexibility if needed for family care
promotion potential
paid holidays

Will they pay any of your tuition?
Are you studying anything chemical related (could this turn in to a full time job later)?
Is it union, and would you have to join??

which job do you prefer (atmosphere, co-workers)?

Good luck!!

Answer 2

$10 job unless you are going into chemical or petroleum engineering a related field so at least you'll have some experience that way.

Based on your additional comments, take the higher pay, no doubt. $10 is better than working in a chemical plant for lower pay, especially at 17.

Good luck.

Answer 3

1) How flexible are the work hours?

2) What's the benefits package like?

3) What would you be doing there at Shell?
