Ok, so i applied to work at Petsmart, hopefully i get the job, i'm not realy worried about getting it, because they didn't even ask for refrences or previous work experiances. but heres the problem i am faced with.
a job like petsmart i can't expect to be payed more than 8.25 an hour.
heres where the math starts, 25 hours a week=100 hours a month=$825 a month. assuming a 25% tax that is 618.75 take home. minus 425/month for rent=193.75. $50/month cable and electricity = 143.75, $100/month for grocerys (if i am good and but cheep food that doesn't spoil i might be able to bring that down to 80 but i doubt i can do that) so i am down to $43.75 a full tank of gas cost me $30, i probably would go through about 3 tanks every two months=$45 month. paycheck= -1.25, point is, when my mom stops helping me out with rent...i'm up a creek. (any ideas on decreasing the red, maybe even into black?) and second job is unfisable with my school schedual.
