Summer Job Advise

I was hoping I could get a little advise regarding some summer job opportunities. My roommates dad is pretty high up with one of third party graders and he offered me a job as a junior grader working with him (I have been grading coins since I was around 12 and I am pretty good). Also he has a lot of contacts and he could probably get me a job at Stacks Bowers, probably working with Q David Bowers doing some research on one of his books or doing some cataloging for him. These jobs would be good but they would be unpaid internships most likely. I could probably get a job at my LCS and make like $12,000 for just a few months work. Any advise?

Do you *need* to make money this summer or would it "just be nice"?

 

you may have to sell your col green half million dollar snag to live off of while you take the unpaid gig

 

A local coin shop could afford to pay you $12,000 for a couple months work? Wow, they must have pretty good business there.

 

Would any of these look good on your resume down the road? What do you intend to do as a career?

 

Oops, got caught by the troll. Darn

 

Yea mostly working on commissions selling 33 gold

 

Glad to see companies large and small reaching out to the under-bridge community.

 

Maybe you can research the Ellender Lincoln for Bowers.

 

Toll bridge attendant?

 

I will only advise you to spell advice with a 'c'.

 

Oh Lord, thank you for saying that.

 

Don't bother. You would get fired the first day. The services and people like Mr. Bowers are only looking for honest people.

 

Revelations 21:8, lol

 

The experience and cache of working for QDB or a third party grader would outweigh any money I might make in just a few months work. IMHO. Unless you really "need" the money.

 

Yes, as imaginary jobs go, it would be pretty cool.

 

actually it works both ways:

ad·vise
ədˈvīz/counsel, give guidance, guide, offer suggestions, give hints, give tips, give pointers
"her grandmother advised her about marriage"


ad·vice
ədˈvīs/
noun
noun: advice

1. guidance or recommendations concerning prudent future action, typically given by someone regarded as knowledgeable or authoritative.

I thought the same, and look it up.

Surprise!

 

"Advise" is a verb. "Advice" is a noun. OP is a troll. An adviser (or advisor apparently) advises his students, but will they take his advice?

Tomorrows lesson will be the difference between further and farther.
