I have been looking for white collar job for a year but have been unsuccessful. Room attendants get paid more than minimum wage and gets four dollar tips sometimes so I think they can earn about $10 an hour including tips. Better than $7.xx minimum wage while not being much different from a minimum wage job.

Ahhhhhh, your hired. You can count. That's more than what we are seeing in most college graduates. But don't go apply to Google just yet, hold on until you find out what advancement opportunities await you inside. Cleaning hands and handing out mints for an extra $4 hour may not sound like much but, you have shown keen insight and managment "potential". You have seen the forest through the trees or, shiite between the fingers and thus know a good deal when you see one.

That, or you prefer the smell of chlorinated water and mostly dilluted urine with a tepid fan blowing away.

If you have grasped this concept of "advanced cash-flow" and labor leveraging, perhaps you can sell this concept to your replacement. The guy will probably have an MBA so there is a chance he can handle it. They always say try to be creative so, demonstrate this at your "review". This will consist of some kid who is younger than you, if you can believe it, and start with a brow beating so you will ultimately be grateful for the $.25 raise you have coming. Afterall, it's hard to find someone who will stick around 6 days, let alone 6 months.

Think about it, how many times have YOU taken a **** and seen the exact same bathroom attendant watching YOUR progress over time? Creepy, ain't it?

You get the idea. While your friends are toiling away at the firm Dewey, Cheatham, and Howe, YOU will be steadily advancing the ladder of toilet mate which will ultimately help you with your resume. Where else can you get THESE kind of people skills? Unique training always nets unique jobs.

Flush away toilet man, there is nothing stopping you! Well, with a plunger a least....
