    I am looking for job because I quit my job that i had for 1 1/2 months. I am looking to get a job that pays around $12.20 or so because that is what i was getting paid at my other job. Let me know if u know anywhere that is looking for someone.

    You can make more than that with some sort of crappy manufacturing job.

    You could go work at Target or Walmart overnight stocking shelves for more than 12.20 an hour I would think.

    How old are you?

    The key to making what you want is working your way there. If there is nothing horribly wrong with the job you have, why quit?

    The OP said $12.20. Not $12.20 per hour. :biggrin:

    go work at a car repair shop like tires plus they make 10 starting i think. chances of you finding a job at 12.50 when youre probably what 17? not a chance in hell. its called raises and everybody has to start somewhere. stay with a job for a while and you will get your 12.50 you think you deserve

    I just read that the now unionized walmart in Canada will have a base pay starting at 15.xx /hr soon. See if they have an opening.

    He doesn't care what kind of work, as long as it isn't too cold, too warm, and the hours fit his schedule.

    I dont get it. You don't care what kind of work, and you want $12.20/hr...yet you just quit a job that was paying you that. If you really didn't care, you would've just stayed there.

    McDonalds? Wendy's?

    If your not into the fast food nation, what about a store in a mall, one of your favorite clothing outlets, or maybe home depot, bed bath and beyond?

    **** man there are tons of places out there, get off mnsubaru and go look.

    What are you qualified to do?? Do you have tools?? We have a mech assembly job that might be opening up, but they will probably want someone with some kinda of experience. 4-10's (6am to 4:30pm) with fridays off. BUt you need to know how to read prints and do electrical work. There will be tests. And start pay is probably in that $14-17 depending on experience.

    You never even answered my questions. Because I can tell you right now, if you have no heavy machine building experience you will not get it. I was not kidding when i said they will test you, so even if you lie your ass off, you will be expected to wire up some relays/switches and put together some small assemblies off of the prints.
