Input request.
8 years ago
So, before I begin I'll say this: No I'm not asking for money.
What I'm looking for is some secondary input in regards to what I should do next. As of yesterday, I officially have my GED, and am ready and able to move forward in my venture to make more money and be more comfortable. Upon weighing my options, two of them stand out the most.
I live in Lexington, Kentucky, home of the University of Kentucky and some excellent job openings around the campus. I've seen listings of UK Hospital needing janitorial staff. While the hours are pretty scary compared to my current schedule, I'm able to alter my schedule to accommodate them and make some seriously nice money compared to what I do now.
HOWEVER.
I have worked for Jimmy Johns for three years now, and on my to-do list is to FINALLY get my Drivers' License. Drivers for Jimmy Johns on UK campus make incredible tips, sometimes on par with the Managers whom they work with, who are typically salary. I've built connections with the Managers of several of our stores, and two of our Area Managers, so I have an advantage if I decide to pursue being a Driver at one of the campus locations - it's not a guarantee I'd get the job as a driver, but it's still higher than normal.
Being a driver for Jimmy Johns would be easier than starting as a Janitor at UK Hospital, and potentially pay right around the same. But to be a Driver, I need a working vehicle and the license to drive it. As of right now, I'm torn, so if anyone wants to weigh in or propose another route entirely, feel free.
