    I have a feeling JJ Gold would be the person to ask about this.

                Bobcat operators are making $80 an hour here in Central Texas. If you've got about $10,000 to buy you a good machine, you'll be plenty busy.

                One of my bro-in-law's has several degrees from Fordham and Rice, pretty well-known archaeologist. He's working for $15 an hour on light contructions jobs for another bro-in-law's contract bidness.

                  That's true, however that's a cyclical job

                    You just have to pucker your lips and know whose asses to kiss.

                      I always loved the guy that hands you a towel and provides you with cologne and a comb at the restroom of the strip club. This should be a nice entry level job.

                        I'd say try to find a sales job of some sort, if you have any people skills.

                          You can work eight days a week on a bobcat in this area. Is that what you mean by cyclical? Or were you talking about the cyclical nature of archaeology?

                          Or you could just answer a help wanted ad in the paper like I did.

                                She must be working at the CDC. I didn't know they were hiring lab animals to test vaccines.

                                      If you are in a major east coast city paralegal is a good gig. Most top tier firms only hire bachelor degree paralegals (as opposed to associate degree paralegals). I have friends in NYC making 80k/yr after 2yrs.

                                        Nothing like the hustle and bustle of a megatropolis like Zapata.

                                            Easy 50K without any effort and another 25k more with decent sales and your home early and work alone, show up at a sales meting once a week and bull shit them that you have many leads and are close to closing in on deals, even if you do not make one sale you can make 50k for the year before getting fired. It is easy to BS them for a year and you can stay home everyday. So your move if you want a quick 50k for doing nothing or actually want to make like 75k and doing some work and keeping your job.

                                                  Just put out resumes and start working in something related to your field "Business"

                                                  There are NO marketing jobs....first thing to go in a downturn.

                                                      80k is equal to about 9k in iowa a year

                                                        That's actually not a bad suggestion RW

                                                          You should talk to someone at the career center at your school.
