[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]a person can easily have a second job with this, sounds reasonable to me[/quote]

The parent in this ad wants the person to come from 1-4pm. What second job is going to let you work with those hours?[/quote]

I'm pretty sure that the ad said 15 hours per week.  Plenty of people work the morning shift or a late 5-12 shift later. It's totally doable.  Lots and lots of people do it.[/quote]

The ad writer specifies starting at 1PM for 15 hours a week. Hence 1pm - 4pm M-F. As for plenty of people -- what plenty of people? Grocery workers possibly?[b] So they want some poor kid to be working minimum wage at a grocery store trying to make ends meet for 5 hours then run to their house for another 3 hours a day.[/b] While not being to afford the COL in this area?

Yeah. No.[/quote]

My God! You people are so out of f-ing touch. [b] Do you have the slightest idea how many people live EXACTLY like that?  You all live in a God-damn bubble in DC. A college student or a recent grad might find this an ideal situation. [/b] [/quote]

I worked in a grocery store as a college student.   This is not only NOT "an ideal situation" but it's pretty much a non starter in the grocery business.   If you limit your availability too much, they won't be willing to work around your schedule.  Grocery stores (and other big box stores) want to OWN all of your time.   A college student limiting 1-4 every week day IN ADDITION to whatever classes they need to take, will not be hired.[/quote]
