Summer or Part-time Jobs

Many people tend to believe that summer jobs are better than part-time jobs, however, I think differently. If I were to choose between summer jobs or part-time jobs I would choose part-time jobs. There are many reasons for why I think this is better for me and why it is the best choice people should choose. When it comes to looking for jobs, many individuals feel that getting part time jobs is the best thing to do. I would say that it is true. The reason is because I get to have a job that is not full-time, but it is a job that I get to have till I get tired of working. Getting a part-time means money because I get to work for any hours that I want. Although I feel like it can get really tiring, it would not matter because I get to do something that I never did and see how it is to get “full-time job.” Even though it is a good thing, it also has its cons. Getting a part-time means not having free time. I really like going out to chill with my friends or family, going to the movies, or usually go to the beach. When getting a part-time it means that I would not have time to do some of those things because what if my schedule were to change over the weekends? Or I get put on the schedule on the days that I want off to hangout with my friends. Yeah getting a part-time job could be the best thing, but it does have its cons. Although part-time jobs could be the best for me, summer jobs can also be a good thing in that it is only a temporary job and that is it. I feel that summer jobs are the best because I get to distract myself and I would not have to be bored at home or do chores. Over the summer I was given the opportunity to work. I felt that it was the best experience that I had; I was able to experience something that I did not know I was going to do. I really was able to distract myself over the summer. I was able to see how it was to earn money. I did like my job,

    Most students enjoy summer vacation, but some educators feel like the summer breaks are too long and students do not retain information as easily when they return in the fall.

    Finding a summer job would then become challenging if not stressful to one if the school year were to be prolonged. Some students who are eligible to work would be stressed out about the fact they would have to balance work and school when school is year round. Some parents conduct their children to possess jobs whether it is summer or not, therefore having to balance both throughout the entire school year would most likely not be enjoyable.…

    All of the positives about having a part-time job have one big caveat. Students cannot usually be employed more than 20 hours per week or their grades begin to suffer, they do less homework, and they are more likely to drop out (Gisler & Eberts, 2016). Your grades could suffer more if you were without a job than if you had a job during school. The busier you are, the more focused you become. Working really makes you more structured; you have a lot of things to do in a short amount of time, so it’s important to keep up with it all (Laskowski, 2009). So, if they get paid for grades and don’t get a job because you don’t have to, you won’t be structured as if you had a…

    I believe that teens (specifically 16-19 year olds) should get a summer job. I’m not saying that they should have a full-time job or work every single day during the summer, but they should at least work a couple of days each week. Young people like them will get a great life experience from being in the work force. For example, they’ll have more social skills by interacting with the customers or with their co-workers, and later in life when they’re adults this will help them a lot. Also, getting a job would help them learn how to budget money. If you think about it ─ your child can put more and more money towards college if they are working, so you wouldn’t have to. And with their own money that they earned by being employed, they’ll appreciate…

    Part-time employees should without a doubt be considered as part of an organization’s valued assets. These types of employees contribute to the businesses overall objectives, help decrease wage outlays and fill in or replace work hours that full-time employees do not want to work. However, managers have created myths about part-time employees in which they view them as inferior, less hardworking, less competent, indifferent about product quality or organization’s goals, less loyal and higher in absenteeism (Inman & Enz, 1995, p. 2). These myths are caused due to the fact that part-time workers are not paid as much as full-time workers, are usually needed for the organization’s “grunt” work, frequently have other goals to accomplish (school, family), are looked down upon by full-time employees and do not always have many career opportunities (Sykes). They also often quit their jobs because they feel that their managers ignore them and do not adequately prepare…

    Why I Want A Summer Job

    • 184 Words

    The reason I want a summer job is because I have reached the age where it’s time for me to start making money and taking responsibilities. Getting a summer job will let me help me develop my working and interview skills. I will be able to get an early glimpse of working before I actually begin a career in college so i'll know more about my strengths and weaknesses. When I apply to a job where its competition i'll already have skills from another job that i did over the summer and will most likely be chosen as best for the job based on previous experience. I'm all about work and pushing myself past my limits. I do not need to be bored and not busy i need new things to do so i can be introduced to some new careers. Working in the summer will…
