The Pros And Cons Of Being The Only One Of Your Friends With A Job In College

College life is tough, there's no doubting that fact, it would be a lot easier if you didn't have to balance about a million things at once, worst of all is having a stupid part time job during college to pay for your over active drinking habit... Over active for some, not active enough for you!

Pro-

You make money

The obvious one of course is you've got money and can afford to do stuff unlike those paupers you call friends

Con-

Your friends always borrow money

So you work hard for your minimum wage and then you get hit with the 'you couldn't lend me a tenner could you'  you can't say no without looking like a scrooge though, can you?

Pro-

It Looks good on a cv

Going to college and getting a degree is all well and good but experience and references will stand by you in the future

Con-

You miss out on plans

Having something to do rather than wasting your weekend/summer

Having a job gets you up out of bed and doing something instead of wasting your time. An extra 2 hours in bed is great but you don't get paid for it..

Con-

Being the sober one on the night out

Being in work the morning after night out means that if you have decided to come it'll definitely be a sober one for you. Meaning you spend the night overlooking your friends wistfully as they down tequila shots.
