So my mom wants me to work at moron Papa John's

[minivan2]

I'm trying to get work at someplace else other than that Romney lover. So should I take it if it's the only offer that I get?

[femmocrat]

1. Yes.

If you need a job. It is fine to stand on principle if you plan to stand in the soup line!

[AnalystInParadise]

22. If you get nothing else

take the job, you don't have to agree with your employer or their political positions.

[edgineered]

2. Can you make a difference?

Can you get out the vote?

Can you enlighten your coworkers and help them discover the good side of themselves? It may be painful, but remember who you are.

[XRubicon]

3. Take the job, work every day on your exit.

5. This

[ohnoyoudidnt]

4. Yes.

A lot of people here have no choice but to work for right-wing companies. If that is all you can get right now, go for it.

[LeftyMom]

6. If your mom is pressuring you to take a job it's almost certainly because you need a job.

I don't know if you've noticed what the job market is like but yeah, you should take the job. You're not going to wound the political right by shooting yourself in the foot.

7. Put a little money in your pocket

and take a load off your mom. Don't be ashamed to take rMoney's money.He'd grab yours quick enough.

15. it's not his money anyways, most of the money belongs to the workers

[Lint Head]

8. Work there and report every abuse you see right here on DU.

[Brigid]

9. Undercover investigation!

Excellent idea!

You know, it's also possible that this particular franchise owner is a decent person to work for. You never know.

[Lint Head]

11. You never know. But one would be aware of corporate policies.

[etherealtruth]

10. Yes!

[NightWatcher]

12. Dont be a delivery driver, if you get in a wreck your insurance will not cover it!

Your regular car insurance is not for commercial purposes and if it came out that you were in a wreck while working, you could be sued.

[JI7]

13. i assume you are young so most of your options will be shitty, take the job

you can of course continue to look for something else .

but even those who are older don't have much choice .

you need to pay the bills.

just stay involved in politics and try to pass laws so there are better regulations and a more fair system.

14. It's better to work than not work n/t

[cyberswede]

16. Any work experience builds your resume.

Save some money while you're at home. Better opportunities will come up down the road.

[JEFF9K]

17. Take the job and start a union there!

[alp227]

18. Take the job and donate part of your paycheck to the good side.

19. A job is better than no job. n/t

[WillowTree]

20. Take the job that you can get.......

.......while you continue to look for the job you want. The old saying that it's easier to get a job if you already have a job is true.

[TBF]

21. Take it -

my first job was $1.00/hr working on a farm (I was only 12 - little summer job). You get references when you do a good job & you look for something new (or advancement to manager). You are always more attractive to other companies if you're already working. Take the job!

[Yo_Mama]

23. Yes, and use some of the gains to advocate for your own political ideas

It doesn't have to be monetary support - having the job also allows you to do volunteer work for your local democratic campaigns. That sort of thing.

Within, you can be the fifth column.

[Shoulders of Giants]

24. Most jobs availible to younger people are shitty minimum wage jobs owned by right wingers

You should probably take it if you can get it. Many people would be happy to get it. Work there, and start going to a community college during the mornings when Papa John's isn't opened. Take classes to learn a trade, and you may be able to get a decent union job after awhile.
