Not really. The nice thing about convenience stores is that, if you’re diligent, you often aren’t working about 4 hours of an 8 hour shift, leaving you upwards of 4 hours a shift to use as you wish. That’s useful for a student.
There aren’t many jobs where you can stand around for half a shift or do things you like to do that have nothing to do with your job obligations.
I was referring to owning one. As a student I lied about my age to take a job as a night mechanic. Made more than anyone else in high school and learned a decent skill that would support my family, then and for another 15 yrs. Btw I faked being a mechanic to get in the door all my knowledge came from fixing mom’s car. You get crap for crap wages, period. That part isn’t worth a debate, just the owning one is. Being smart for a mechanic got me into sales, management and beyond. I worked part time in construction for my uncle from age 10. I could get in attacks and crawls easy and he was a fat hvac dude so I worked a lot. Burnt out w the auto industry I’m back in construction, and doing quite well. No college, no night clerk job.
