    I delivered Pizza during my college years. The flexible hours, better pay than most other part-time jobs, etc make it great part-time work. Plus, you'll get some great stories to tell, when you delivered Pizza...

    Only bad thing is the miles you'll put on your car. Use a reliable but cheap car if you can help it, my Mazda 323 was the perfect fit. The wear and tear is unavoidable, so the car needed shocks/brakes/tires and new CV joints during those 3 years...

    The other day I cringed when I saw a guy delivering Pizza in a new A4

    My boss will speak in Arabic, scream in Arabic, yell in Arabic, deal in Arabic, spit in Arabic, and live with Arabic, but he'll swear in English. Gets me going sometimes

    Well done on getting a job, but it took you until you were 17 to get one? I got a job at 15, and now despite being at full-time, during busy times at work i can do 30-40 hrs a week

    Congrats to the Both of you - I've got friends who work in the Sustenance-Delivery business and they seem to have fun.

    I just realised I've been in the same cruddy job for almost two years now - perhaps it's time to move on from the Reject Shop?
