Working during college may sound daunting, overwhelming, and maybe boring. The purpose of attending college is to get a higher education, and you devote most of your time and energy toward your studies. Why work during college at all? Well, having an on-campus job would be very beneficial for you, because it teaches you several lessons about being an adult learning how to live life on your own before you enter the \u201creal world.\u201d Not only that, but there are a couple perks to having an on-campus job vs. an off-campus job.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lesson #1: Good Work Ethic<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I got my first job when I was in high school, but I\u2019m still learning a lot about the kinds of ethics and moral principles I should keep for every job I have. Perhaps your parents have talked about practices they follow for their jobs. The Lord calls us to honor our parents, so it\u2019s important to heed their advice. However, there\u2019s an old saying that says \u201cexperience is the best teacher.\u201d While I have heard others say you should get a good work ethic <\/span>before<\/span><\/i> you get a job, you can still learn a good work ethic <\/span>while<\/span><\/i> having a job.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lesson #2: Responsibility\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Responsibility is crucial for a job and other aspects of life. I\u2019ve worked at McDonald\u2019s in my home state for about four years, and every shift I work, there\u2019s at least one person who doesn\u2019t show up. The top reason for their absence is that they don\u2019t feel like coming in. There will be days when you don\u2019t want to go to work, but you have a responsibility to follow through with your commitment. If you don\u2019t show up, your co-workers will pay the price for it. In a day and age where everything\u2019s self-centered and it\u2019s all about making ourselves happy and doing whatever we want to do, we must be image-bearers of Christ and follow through on things we said we would do, which includes showing up to your job for your selected shifts on time.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lesson #3: Time Management<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The ability to manage your time is a valuable skill you\u2019ll need to learn before you get a career in the \u201creal world.\u201d Between classes, chapel, a job, homework, extracurriculars, and maintaining a social life, you have a lot going on, and you only have so much time to accomplish it all. It\u2019s about finding balance. Your time with God and your academics should both be top priority, but it\u2019s crucial to learn how to steward your time between all your commitments and activities well. Once you\u2019ve made your class schedule, look for time gaps of a couple hours or so where you could work.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lesson #4: Advocating for Yourself\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Dr. Paul Dixon, former president of Cedarville University, used to say this about what students should expect during their 1000 Days™: \u201c<\/span>College can be either the last years of childhood or the first years of adulthood, and at Cedarville we expect the latter.\u201d Part of being a college student and an adult in general is advocating for yourself. <\/span>There may be certain situations where your parents do need to step in for you, such as finances, but otherwise, you have to be your own advocate. You have to decide what your priorities are, your needs and wants, and what\u2019s in your best interest. Your employers will work with you in any situation in which you advocate for yourself and keep your best interests in mind to the best of their ability. However, how can they help you in such a situation if you don\u2019t speak up for yourself? Advocating for yourself is something that you\u2019ll have to do both during and after college.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Bonus: You Don\u2019t Need Transportation<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For my freshman and sophomore years, I didn\u2019t have a car, so working anywhere not within walking distance wasn\u2019t an option. Finding someone to take you to work off campus can be a hassle. Plus, a lot of employers on campus, especially the various food venues, are always in need of student workers. Instead of jumping in your car and driving 20 minutes to work and 20 minutes back on top of working a 4-hour shift, you can just walk to work after class. You save both time <\/span>and<\/span><\/i> gas money. Gas is expensive, so why drive to work when you have the option to work on campus?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many college students choose not to work during college for various reasons. They don\u2019t need to work because their parents are paying for their education, or they got a full-ride scholarship, or some other reason. Some simply can\u2019t with their heavy course load, which is OK. But if you are able to work during college, I\u2019d highly recommend applying for a job. You will learn and grow so much, and whatever job experience you gain will look great on a resume. If you don\u2019t know what job to apply for, check out the <\/span>Student Employment Resources<\/span><\/a> webpage, but I\u2019d personally recommend Chick-fil-A. You can even tell them I recommended the job to you!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Working during college may sound daunting, overwhelming, and maybe boring.
