Jobs for 19 yr old in kansas w/ class A

get older

 

Seriously, keep your mvr clean, stay out of trouble, possibly hire on with OD or Estes on the dock. If you do a good job for them , they'll train you to drive. Possibly team with someone for a while. Work as a yard jockey ?

 

Pepsi or Coke

 

Do soda jobs or food service. But they are more hands on work than driving. Or you can start at the dock and work your way up the company like ups
Until you're 21 you can cross state lines, and some companies want people at least 23 or 25 yrs old

 

You live in Kansas and mean to tell me you can't find a farmer to put you to work hauling off the farm to the elevator? Oh running the nurse trailer to refill the sprayer?

It don't pay the best going rate for a farm hand is about $15/hr 80+ a week with no overtime but it could be worse I suppose could be flipping burgers at McDonald's for $15 an hour...maybe I misspoke.

 

Where I grew up the farm is where a majority of people learned to drive. Challenged the test when I was 18 and got it on my first attempt. No driving school.

 

That 21 cross state line is garbage only time that matters is if you get caught we've done it many times. Standard right now seems to now be 25 just about everything says 25 on the adds with 2 years exp.

None the less some will accept a younger age with experience all depends on insurance. Many times when you're that age a farmer is the way to go as they insure their trucks privately to haul their own grain. He wouldn't be able to haul commercial but I'm sure they can dig up some other work for him to do driving the truck.

 

$15.00 an hour X 80 hours = $1,200 a week.

This is EXCELLENT money for seasonal work.

Starting pay for someone working at McDonald's, Wendy's, Burger King, or any other fast food restaurant is the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour.

$7.25 an hour X 40 hours = $290 a week.

$290 a week X 52 weeks = $15,080 a year.

Also, it is very hard, if not impossible, for that fast food restaurant worker to get full time hours.

God bless every American and their families! God bless the U.S.A.!

 

The 15 from Mcdonald was a joke they're complaining that they're not paid a livable wage of 15 an hour to flip burgers.

1200 is your gross I'd have to look at my old stubs and see what my net was. I had a few checks that were up there around 1000 but I don't think I ever broke 1000.

What I did to make it wasn't exactly something I'd like to go back to though. I'd leave my house about 4 am and I was in council bluffs at 7am first in line to dump. I'd turn 4 loads in there a day to the ethonyal plant.

It was many days of 430am clock in, 730 or 8 pm clock out drive 30 minutes home shower crash and do it all over again. But there were also easy days hooked to the nurse trailer as well. Those were get up about 7 get to work back in next to the tanks hook up open the valves start the pump wait a half hour. Drive about 4 miles park pump 2500 gallons onto the sprayer (maybe 3200 can't remember) while that's pumping put 3 gallons of herbicide in and 2 gallons of pesticide shut the pump off unhook and wait about a half hour and do it all over again. Got paid to sit and do nothing most of the day.

I can also say get a good pair of chemical gloves 32% and 10-34-O aren't bad if you don't have cuts on your hands but they'll burn for a good hour if you do.

Learned a lot on the farm did a lot of things I look back on and think what was I thinking as well.
