Me and a friend are renting out a shotgun house this summer for 398 a month, which is very cheap. The thing is, I am going to be working full-time at best buy over the summer so I should be making decent money. Here is where the problem is.
Originally, I was thinking about dropping the best buy job at the end of summer, and then beginning to do UPS, since I need my college paid. Heres the deal though. I have haerd from two different people, two different opinions on the ups job. One person said it was impossible to pay for the house rent with that kind of money and the other bills, while the other person said that ups worked just fine for them, and they had thier own place to themselves, paid for rent and still had money leftover.
My question is this, will UPS be enough as a stand alone job to get me through college in house, and still have money. If that isn't an option, I was thinking about just working at both UPS and Best Buy as part time jobs. My concern about that is schedule conflicts, and not having any room or energy to work and study for school.
For anyone who has ever been in this situation, I want opinions. I would gladly just do UPS if it meant I only had a small amount of money left over. Time is much more important than money. Opionions? I am in need of serious help.

well that is the thing. I am going to see the best buy employer friday to discuss pay. I am an unknown identity with UPS as a whole. I am going to a community college, so I have to sign up to do ups through JCC once I go to their orientation.
