Yesterday I had my part-time job. As most of my classmates know, I now work at a buffet in my hometown and I'd like to give my opinion for who thinking of having a part-time job.
I strongly recommend you to work near your hometown. Also, if you're afraid that you can't keep up both schoolwork and a job, I think you should find a place where it will be closed early, like a shop inside a mall or a bakery. Or maybe just because I'm not the nocturnal type. Anyway, I think that gives you a certain time to study each week.
Only 2 or 3 weeks have past since I started my job and there's lots of things to remember, but I'm sure that they're things that you can also use in your daily life. They're pretty interesting.
Hope you all find a great part-time job:)
