Poll of the Day > I got a new part time job at a warehouse

(+) Yeah! (+)

29 hours a week doing inventory and putting labels on items were shipping.

sooooo fun

i start my first shift in about an hour

$12/hour btw if youre wondering

We've got landscaping positions starting at $15/hour with little to no experience required. 29 hours a week. Based on the level of competency a lot of our seasonal staff displays I'm pretty sure the only requirement is a heartbeat...

Only 12? I thought warehouse jobs paid well. I think even in Killeen TX(wages and cost of living is so low there that you can live like a king making 12 an hour), warehouses were paying like 14-15 an hour.

Congratulations on your new job. Hope it works out well for you.

That actually does sound kind of fun. But Im like an inventory guy. I wish I could find a job like that that actually paid well enough

Makin' $20/hr over here at Fedex.

Warehouse jobs usually pay at least $20 an hour. Wtf warehouse is this? Some random guy with 20 employees?

Even Walmart pays more than that for stocking jobs.

Probably because Im not doing any of the heavy lifting or moving. Im only creating labels, scanning items in/out, and sweeping/cleaning.

I did that job for awhile. Enjoyed it a lot more when I switched to riding the floor cleaner around the warehouse for 8 hours a night.

Might be your area. I've done some warehouse/factory jobs in TN, and while there were jobs that paid $20 an hour, it was hardly the average. A lot of the ones around here hire you on through a temp agency and that generally pays shit.
