Right, I need a career!

Inspired by the 'do you love your job?'/ thread...

(I know there is a huge recession/high graduate unemployment etc. etc. so I don't expect any magic answers but I fancy a moan).

Basically, I'm half way through an MA but the funding has run out so I need a job. It needs to be something that can be done p/t as I have to be in uni/placement 1 or 2 days a week. So, what could I do?

I've got childcare/education experience (but no qualifications), and I've done some waitressing/random temping.

Ideally, I would like to input some data in an office p/t but have enough money to live on.Grin

My absolute dream job would be in academia so if it could lead into that that would be wonderful...

Hello!

While I was at uni I got some good temping placements through the university job shop, nothing permanent but quite well paid. Data input, telephone research, random office admin etc.

This was pre-recession though so not sure what it's like out there now...

And ps I was a student at a different uni at the time, so look at all your local unis.
