3 jobs that will keep you paid and cool
Posted on 22. Sep, 2009 by Contributer in Money Tips
What is the coolest most productive college job out there? I was talking about this with some friends and it inspired an on the spot impromptu bar room survey. After some discussion we narrowed it down to three rock solid half-time dream jobs that should help you stack some dough fast and not get in the way of classes. Heres are three of the coolest college jobs for making some quick cash without cramping your style with that inconvenient 8-5 nonsense.
Limo Driver – Buy yourself a 30 foot Lincoln and start charging folks! – or better yet find someone who already has a fleet of them
The Good: Fat tips! and the possibility of spending the evening cruising around with the ever important bachelorette parties.
The Bad: You work almost exclusively at night unless you need to drop/pickup some big shot at the airport or the occasional funeral road trip, and don’t forget the potential to end up cleaning puke at 3am.
Event security – Work Sporting events, Concerts, Rallies…all the good things in life!
The Good: Attend some of the sweetest events in town and get paid for it, you get to walk around acting like you actually have some authority for your entire shift.
The Bad: No cash tips (this may be over shadowed by the joy you receive by taking in fist fights for a paycheck). The potential to end up cleaning puke at 3am.
Bartending – You’ve been practicing making drinks for the ladies….now you can finally get something in return for you efforts.
The Good: Tips – lots of them if you’re any good and you get to spend your evenings flirting. The ability to hook up your friends when you’re working and cheap drinks when you aren’t working
The Bad: You get off after all the bars close, all your friends are already drunk and don’t forget the potential to end up cleaning puke at 3am.
So aside from cleaning up puke at 3am these may be some of your best chances to make some good cash without committing to some sad 40 hour sentence.

I’m not sure how many college students would be able to afford buying a limo, but if they could, I’m sure they could undercut the competition pretty easily and make some great money! Nice idea!

Love your blog and this post. When I was still studying I went for even the most odd job out there just to get through college. These jobs sounds cool.

How’s it going? I like your site. All the college-related blogs need to stick together. There aren’t that many of us out there. I was wondering if we could do a link exchange. Let me know.
Sincerely,
Jason

Useful tips on part time jobs! Part time work in a hair dressing salon, as a nanny, a guide in a cruise or tourist spot are some of the fixed time job options. Tips possible only with salon.

You left out a good one. Valet Parking guy.
I’m not sure if this would involve cleaning up puke as this seems to be a prerequisite for your list. But it might.

Oo, I do event security to pay tuition. It is indeed swwweettt. When Britney spears was in town I had to force her way through a crowd of screaming fans the press made her breasts smush into my back.
That sounded more pathetic then I meant it too..

LOL I love the picture, hmmm wondering if that is actually you down on your knees.
Noticed you could actually do all these jobs in the same day. Bring the people to the concert in the limo, then after the concert drop them off at the joint your bar keeping at. Of course that means no partying for the Hobo.

I got one,
Buy a keg, and throw a party. Charge $20 bucks a head.
Cleaning puke at 3 am is still part of that one though.

That photo is great! Made me laugh immediately.
The potential to clean up puke at 3AM. That might not be so bad. Some people have to change diapers for a living– on babies and maybe even adults. Now that’s a job with a downside.
