Answer 1

Deliver Pizza - I do and it is great

First you are usually in your car listening to your favorite music all evening and you drive from the pizza place to peoples houses and they pay you for it. Occasionally, you are in the store folding boxes or maybe taking an order or pulling a pizza off of the oven... but wait why does it pay good

YESSSS

First you get minimum wage or better per hour for showing up. Currently, I get 6.25 and hour and Domino's pays an extra .25 per hour for having their sign on your car. As well you get 1.00 for every order you take out the door plus you get tips which on average are 2.00 per order. So, lets do the math....

Lets assume that your an average driver and you get 3 deliveries per hour... 10 minutes out and 10 minutes back 3 times is an hour.... that would be as follows

6.25 + .25 = 6.50 per hour you will get in a check every 2 weeks

3 orders per hour would get you 3.00 for orders and an average of 2 dollars tip per each order would get you 6.00 in tips for a total of 9.00 per hour in tips and orders.

that would be on average about 15.00 per hour but this depends on nights and business rushes. I do this on a regular basis and change periodically to avoid burn out.

Finally, I would suggest this type of work because it requires almost no professional work and very little liability. It is fun and easy has no preparation and you can find a job easily and the best part is that they are so easy to find and you already have a main job that you can quit at any time and find another.... another bonus is that if you get lucky on some shifts the manager doesn't mind if you drop a large pizza and cinna-stiks in the oven to cook on your last run of the night that would be ready just before you go home on a long night... hey that is an extra 15 to 20 dollars...

it is kinda blue collar but limited boss interaction and most people are glad to see you... it is also one you can do during school if you want.... i do occasionally during the winters on Saturdays and another evening during the week that is not to busy for me during school...

Check it out and think about it...it usually comes to about 20 hours a week during the summer and this will get you about an average of $200 plus or minus a few in tips and trips during each week and about $200 every two weeks in a check from the company for an extra $1000 a month for about 80 hours of work...

I have worked for Pizza Hut, Dominos, and Papa Johns... they are similar only made different by the people who work there

20 years teaching math in adult corrections, juvenile corrections, alternative schools and special ed...

hey if you try this and it works remember this question and send me an e-mail to tell me what you think....

I always pick my extra work as jobs that pay good and you can have fun... another interesting one is being a white water rafting guide ... oh and just fyi... companies on the rivers train their guides.... it is a blast and great for practicing your story telling techniques to earn extra on tips... on the Ocoee in TN you get $30 for a hour and a half ride plus tips which usually average $5 per person on the boat... about $30-50 a trip...
on any one day you could get 3 trips for $90 and about $150 in tips but it can be dangerous but only if you have trouble paying attention to details or safety...

hope these suggestions help open up the possibilities...

AVOID ANY TYPE OF TEACHING.... this will help you avoid burnout during the regular year
