In Stillwater I worked at the $1.50 movie theater for the worst theater chain in the US. I didn't get many hours and the pay was terrible. I once lived for a week and a half on $2.85.
I then worked in the kitchen at Eskimo Joe's. Hard work but plenty of hours if you wanted to work them and a great bunch of people. Plus, with 5 hours of work you got a shift meal. Downside: I used to get paid to prep, cook, then clean up the mess. Now, I don't enjoy cooking whatsoever.

Arkansas pays me to go to school. But I've gotta have gun and girlfriend money. First two years I worked concessions at Arvest Ballpark in Springdale, AR. I also delivered newspapers to Eureka Springs on the weekends. That paid really well until the paper went under... I refereed intramural football games, hated the pressure. I've spent the last year and a half at Best Buy. Made full time 9 months in. Hopefully I'll be able to move up into management within the next few months, and maintain that while I'm in grad school. I work 40 hrs a week and I'm a full time student, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Best Buy sure doesn't pay the best, but I can't think of any other job that lets me network like this one. Running the home theater department means that Walmart, Tyson, and J.B. Hunt execs come to me for help.
I delivered furniture at a hardware/slash furniture store. I was a bodybuilder at the time and the store owners liked it cause I could deliver furniture alone. I should have charged them double in hindsight.
I've never went to college but i worked at KFC til i was 18 then quit and went to wal-mart.
Same job as I have now, cook/chef at the casino. It pays to work in your field while going to school if you can.
Worked at a pump company and Carpenter's Union apprentice.
The US Army paid my books, tuition, and fees plus $100/mo (1973-77 @ OSU) so working summers generally kept me in spending $$$. The summer gigs included wheat harvest twice (brought home $1k the first time, $1.5k the second), summer school plus working on campus radio for one summer, county road maintenance truck driver my last summer, and one summer @ Ft. Riley KS for the Army. My last semester I was married so I also worked at Hardee's nights and weekends.
