Which job? Advice sought

[AtheistCreed]

I am not a good salesman, that being said, I would not go for the car sales. I agree that some manipulation is involved and if I understand most sales positions, the money you make is based on commission. So, it is not really a guaranteed salary, unless you make the sales.

So, the question you need to ask yourself is, am I a good salesperson?

Also, I would consider the impact these jobs would have on your scholarly pursuits. While I was in college, especially grad school, I stuck with part time jobs. Starbucks has a great benefits package for working part time, not sure if they still offer it though.

Just food for thought. Also, try to get into a business that would help your college major. It appeared last time that you were still deciding on that, but once you decided on your major, I would really recommend getting a career in that field. There are many internships to be had.

Good luck.

Thank you sarcasticgeographer, much obliged to your advice once again.

I'm 95% keen on majoring in Finance, I don't think I would enjoy accountancy and I don't want to program (computer science ruled out)...

But I don't have the luxury of working part-time or having an internship, unless it paid really well lol...

I'll have to try to get a job like that casually as I earn good money, if a job in finance pops up which pays really well then I could replace my current role with it but until then I'm not waiting around for it or trying too hard.

Then take the lower paying job if they offer first. Then ditch them if you get the car dealership job.

It's all about the benjamins.

Do you have experience as a car salesman or you're just basing this off of what my friend said about $40k potentially?

Hell, if I KNEW I would make $40k+ then it is a no-brainer for me, but it is too uncertain which is why I'm hesitant.

I do believe I could be great at sales, but that is only a presumption which could be entirely wrong.
