According to DD - the best job on her campus is...

[clh2]

Background...DD has moved into a sorority house. Included in the fees- is room and board. THis includes - dinners Monday through Thursday, and lunch during the week, as well as stuff for breakfast.

There is a cook that comes in and takes care of the cooking for lunch and dinner. So - the best job...

The clean-up guy. (None of the frats on campus include a meals). So - the clean-up guy gets paid for about 1.5 hours a night AND gets dinner for 4 nights a week.

Apparently - this is a well sought after position. No weekends, no late nights, no early mornings...not a lot of hours but getting dinner is a bonus!

For some reason - this is just cracking me up tonight!

My Dad did that job for a while at the beginning of Med school. He had worked in the student union more hours and lived on campus during undergrad, but needed less hours and FOOD when he was doing his graduate work.

Yes, that was a really great job on my campus thirty years ago and still is. We had a group of about six guys that helped with dinner serving and clean up each M-Th. Many of them were sought after for dates when you didn't have a boyfriend for an event, too.

That was my thoughts exactly! The food is an added bonus, but being the only guy in a sorority house? That's a true "perk"!

When I went to school (undergrad) it was the opposite. The fraternities had houses off campus and most had cooks Monday through Friday. Our cook stayed until Friday afternoon, but then once of the brothers had the task of making pizza for everyone (including guests) on Friday afternoon. Each brother had one chore to do each week and someone could volunteer for pizza duty.

The sororities at school where not allowed to have houses due to a stupid archaic law that would have considered sorority houses in town to be brothels. Instead, the sororities had reserved wings inside of the dorms and had to eat in the dining commons.

I totally agree! I spent 2 years of undergrad living in my sorority house and we also had a cook and clean up guys. It was a very hard to get position and I know at least 2 of them ended up dating multiple girls in the house! Free food and girls? What more could a guy want?
