A Groovy NonResponsible Job Just to Have One

[kipin]

I think working in a cigar shop would be pretty fun and not very mentally taxing.

However if you don't like cigars or cigar smoke it probably wouldn't be something you would enjoy.

This is an excellent answer. A better one would be a video store.

Bartender.

random cunsultant for friends/family who have interesting jobs.

my older brother works for a hedge fund and last summer i wanted to play poker / relax and be free to do what i felt like (travel, have knee surgery), but wanted to have something for my resume in case i decide to get a good finance job after graduation. so he would send me low level projects and stuff that he had to do. i didn't do much so i didn't get paid, he said if i wanted to work semi-hard his boss would almost definitely give me some kind of bonus at the end of the summer but i said i didn't want to get paid so i wouldn't have to worry about not doing too much.

so you if you have friends / family in something your interested in you could see about doing something similar.

I'd be curious to see how many people in this thread have ever worked in a fast paced restaurant. Being a bartender is not an easy job; especially one at a good location. If you're looking for something relatively stress free, and more laid back, I wouldn't go the bartender route.

Besides, not anyone can just be a bartender. Most places only hire those with quite a bit of experience, or those with bartending school degrees.

So I've reached a point where having a job at the moment isnt that important. I find that it would be best to have some sort of job just to avoid the obvious questions from the family about how i pay my bills and whatnot.

I'm thinking something that is 20-35hrs a week and during day time hours. I'm contemplating a gas station clerk but thats pretty stale. Something with lots of chics or cool younger people would be a plus.

Any ideas?

I'm serious when I say this......

Starbucks

I've often said if I wasn't already in too much debt. With a wife ex-wife and 4 kids I would have already quit my job and gone to Starbucks.

Think about it. Almost everyone that goes in there is in a good mood. But not in TOO good of a good mood.

Way to pay attention chief.

I like the cigar shop idea, i think its safe to assume those guys would have access to some primo weed.

As a former starbucks employee, I can say this really isn't true
