Hi everyone, i'm looking for a job that i can do in the weekend, i mean something like deliver commercial papers to people who pass near me or to work in a supermarket to give gifts and to talk about a thing that supermarket sells, i can also wear a costume like santa clouse clothes and talk with children but i need a part time work or something like this. And you? have you ever tried to get a job like these? Thank you for your responses.

So, are you looking for a weekend job? Or just a two day temp job? I would try those labour ready or temp agencies. They might be able to connect you with something. When I was a kid, I had a weekly newspaper route. You can get those by calling the number in the paper.

Yes I have had jobs where I only worked 2-3 days a week as an extra part-time job. Mine were mostly bartending or waitressing jobs, and I am actually thinking about looking for a 2nd job again as I am behind on my bills and want to get them paid off as quickly as possible. Best wishes in finding a part-time job!

I did a job for only two days. It is a exhibition for computer, and the pay is quite high. There is also job in the supermarket and mall, my job is a promoter. And it is quite enjoyable and the job is quite light. Codris, for a easy job, you could ask for a part-time tuition and work as a tutor. It is a great job if you interest in it.

Hi there Codris. Well i haven't chosen the weekend part time job, i chose to do it during the week back in 2007, but if i wanted i could have worked for only 2 days a week, with the same salary and same number of working hours (20).

Well, i never work like this coz my job takes most of my time daily, my office hour is 8-5 but sometimes in the end of the month till late night. But Codris, that was not bad job, u get a job in the week end and extra money meanwhile the other one spend money in the week end time. Proud of ur self for whatever u do, do the best and goodluck

I am having a hard time understanding, do you want the job for just 2 days or do you want the job for 2 days a week. If its 2 days a week then it will be reasonably easy to find but if its just 2 days period then that will be a very ahrd task! I have worked just weekends in the past and then picked up overtime when I wasnt at college!

Hi codris, I understood, what you are trying to tell, If you are interested to work there are a lot of works to do, But I can't suggest you anything, or anyone else here, The reason is when you are asking for a real time job, You should specify the geographic location, to get better responses...! I can tell the opportunities in my locality, That will not suit to a person who lives in a near by city, So be descriptive to get some valuable response...!

Yes, I've done that kind of jobs. For example, do you know the people who stay all day in a supermarket with a tray full of small sausages? Guess who was the person holding the tray! It was bad payed and lasted only 1 day, but it's a funny experience to tell your friends.

I'm not sure where you are, but there is a company called Pump it Up. Its a company that hosts parties for kids, and they have bounce houses. Anyway, a few of my friends work only on the weekends and they get tips. Hope this helps!

Sure, when I was in college I always worked for a temporary agency and even if I was home for one or two days if I called ahead they always had a job lined up.
