Hourly: 7.5$ Hours per week: 65 Average tip: no tips
The good side is that the company has a lot of students, and thus all the work for you, so you do not have to worry about all the paperwork. A great place if you go alone, because literally there for you 24/7.
The downside is the hourly rate .. There's no overtime, full of Bulgarians who remained illegally through this program. They are your supervisors. It is difficult to reconcile with the fact that someone who is worse than you in a better position .. If you go here to learn the language, just to tell him you will not learn.
Every cent is important to them, you break unpaid, for every 8 hours of mandatory 30-minute break. Uniform cost is about $ 50.
The good thing is if they remained until October, would be given a bonus for the month of August and September, so that you hourly rate was 9.5 instead of 7.5 for each hour in August and September ..
There's always work if you as a ticket seller deserted house in 4 hours, you can stay to clean the park up 8-9 in the evening .. There is always a job for someone who wants to work.
