I didn't go to college, but back in the late sixties and early seventies, 
when I broached the subject of summer jobs, my counselor asked me what I was

talking about.  When I mentioned working at a soda fountain or stuff like 
that, he said I could go into the vending stand program if I wanted to, but 
he would consider that as a choice of career for me.  I just wanted a summer

job.  He said blind people couldn't get summer jobs.  Pam.

Hi,

I am all in favor of student jobs, as students are always needing money
anyway.  I wasn't on any disability at the time, although blind, but I would
still work for the experience, the money.

The jobs I had at that age, during the summer, actually my senior year, I
think it was, was working as a clerk typist for the El Paso County
courthouse in Colorado Springs.

The summer of my junior year, I worked in a small nursing home making beds,
dusting, folding laundry, assisting people to the day room if they needed
it, anything a flunkie can do, plus washing up utensils.

My sophomore year, I cleaned house for a teacher who was getting her Masters
and gone during the week, I went over there once a week.  I also did some
telephoning for another teacher who was a concert pianist, inviting people
to attend one of her upcoming concerts.  The list was quite long, but my
first phoning job.

While in college, I interned at summer camps.

Hello everyone. I am a college student looking for a summer job. I was
wondering, what kind of summer or student jobs have you held in the past?
For example, fast food restaurants, coffee shops, working at a store, etc.?
