i've worked on research based in mexico for the last 4 years.  i spent plenty of time in american universities previously, but enrolled in a spanish doctoral program last year.

and yeah, no money, and no real marketable skills.  kind of sucks.

the job is in mexico.

fan, you are straying farther away.  i don't do anything economically viable or productive.

Darn.

I'm not sure.  I recently traded in my 93 Ford Ranger for a 00 Ford Ranger and the next day the dealer (small town guy in nc Kansas) sold it to a guy who sells them in Mexico.  That's not you is it?

It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

I might work at Stagg Hill with PowercatMatt.  Too lazy to actually go and ask for a job though.

Go into one of the bars in Aggieville and say "ksufans" to one of the bouncers.  If you find me, I'll get you a job.  Good luck, and God speed.       :eyeseeyou:

Can anybody hook me up with a sweet summer job/or know of one?  My work ethic may be in question (fired from Sirloin Stockade after a month) but it's better now.  Good GPA.  Free premium www.ksufans.com information.

How big are you?  I've got a couple of 350# grease monkeys down here that need to be smacked around.  I'll provide the bat but we don't do medical.

I tried golf course, no luck.

Has anybody ever worked at the country club?  I'm thinking of doing dishes there.  My brother just started as cart bitch, but that's probably different.

I hear the Country Club is good money. Apparently you can get the chefs to make you free food as well. Go for it.

I found out last night that I am going to make a ton of money umpiring baseball games this summer. With only 6 umpires they said I would probably make about of $100 a week.
