How to Maximize a Minimum Wage Job | I've Paid For This Twice Already... http://www.paidtwice.com/2007/12/26/how-to-maximize-a-minimum-wage-job/#comment-8927 Mrs. Micah Wed, 26 Dec 2007 17:35:38 +0000 http://www.paidtwice.com/2007/12/26/how-to-maximize-a-minimum-wage-job/#comment-8927 Good post, Laura. :) I think networking is so important in job-hunting--whether with coworkers, bosses, or friends and family. For example, I got my first library job because I grew up going there and the boss had known me since I was a kid. Then I worked my butt off and I got really good recommendations. (I'd probably work there again if we lived in the area and Micah had a decent job...I could get a slightly higher level job, but not enough to support us. Unless I went up yet another level...which my boss said might be possible in the future.) It was a really good experience!
