Okay, so two days ago, one of my besties BERNIE MON had a birthday. I am so sad that I could not be in Cali with her. But, one day when funds get better I will be out there with her.

Jobs Edition

There is nothing I like more than looking up jobs and internships (yeah right). So, here are some for those unemployed misfits! 

1. USAJOBS.gov
The government is super hard to get into, unless you have connections. But, there are some jobs that are great for students, i.e.
http://jobview.usajobs.gov/GetJob.aspx?JobID=95852580&JobTitle=Cooperative+Education+Student+-+Probation+and+Pretrial+Services&q=student&where=20854&x=91&y=18&brd=3876&vw=b&FedEmp=N&FedPub=Y&AVSDM=2011-01-28+14%3a51%3a00
The Co-op pays $13 dollars an hour. That is more than the Assistant managers at Walgreens, McDonald's, and other places that makes a high school dropout wish they went to college.
2. Pernod Ricard
Don't know Pernod Ricard? You may and not know it. I love Bahama Mamas and Malibu Coconut Rum is owned by Pernod Ricard. Liquor never goes bankrupt even in  a recession, just like prostitution. This job could also offer you worldwide travel!
Pernod Ricard Americas Travel Retail
777 Westchester Ave
10604 White Plains NY
UNITED STATES OF AMERICa

3. Dole
My brother is obsessed with pineapples! And, who distributes more pineapples in the United States than Dole? The idea is to look around you for employment. If a product is great enough to consume and buy, work at their company!

4. Democratic National Committee/ Republican National Committee (GOP)
If some place doesn't have a job available, intern DUH! Prove your own capability. Then when a job does open up, you know who to talk to and then you will have a better chance.

5. Avue Central
Another great website that the Government uses to tease your with decent jobs. This job is for students only and pays $12.35

6. Utilities Companies
Here in the D.C. area, PEPCO reigns supreme! So, go get a job there!They don't always hire electricians or engineers either! So, go run and get you bills and type those companies into google.
pepco.com
7.  Google/ Yahoo
Speaking of Google, Internet companies make BANK! Also known as money money money. So, next time you are on a website searching for your next research paper, go to the career sections and see what they have to offer.
google.com
yahoo.com
8. ConAgra Foods
So, the United States allows companies to slowly kill us through food (watch FOOD, INC). You might as well get paid for it. ConAgra is one of the largest food processing companies in the world. Like popcorn? They make. Love to chuck sunflower seeds? That's them also. So go find a job!

9. Pepsi
Addicted to Lays or Sun Chips? Apply for a job at Frito Lay, which is owned by Pepsi! You will probably receive free Pepsi while at work.

I hope this helps a million to my fellow recessionistas!
