Look I am in a bit of a jam. I am making $7.15 an hour and in my previous job I made $8.50. I am going to go into the field of networking pretty soon and would like to get the latest pay check from them (which I heard is about $30,000 a year in starting pay). What do I do with my previous and now present jobs? Do I wait another couple of months or do I just continue to work at this stupid low paying job?

Never quit a job until you are sure you have the next one locked. If the new one falls thru, the bills pile up quickly.
There are, of course, exceptions. When I was a kid, my parents blew off their corporate jobs and we went on a six month trip around the US. We stayed at campgrounds, which were free to cheap and cooked our own food.
We did not kill mooses and eat them. Mom probably wouldn't have liked that.
We did pick blackberries once, though.
Anyway, the point is, you're going to die, so go look at some stuff first.

Thanks for the advice all, but I just get sick of low-paying jobs and you have to work your tail off to earn any decent salary nowadays.

That is awesome. Everyone should do that.

Actually, I'm an intern for a decent sized corporation downtown, and I get paid $14/hour to browse the internet and use IM all day.
Nobody in the rest of my group does any work either, and most of them have families, so I think they make fairly decent money.

I drive 2 hours to work and back everyday, get paid horrible wages and have to deal with shitty customer's that want to ruin your life.
Networking sucks.

That comment really got me thinking, and now I've quit my job and am about to go on a six-month ramble around Europe.
Thanks, K.
