<p>Go with whomever pays you more...and then go buy yourself a lexus (assuming you're close to having your license...) :)</p>
<p>Option #1:
Alter the hours, so you can work at both places? Example:
Geeksquad = M-W-F for 3 hours a day
FastTeks = Tu-Thu-Sat for 3 hours a day</p>
<p>Try that for a trial period of 4-12 weeks, and then re-evaluate.</p>
<p>The idea is to try both, see which you like, and then revise your plan.<br>
Keep your options open.</p>
<p>Option #2
Make a commitment to FastTek. Let's say for 3 months. Or thru the end of 2006. Then, re-evaluate. Did they wind up having enough workhours to satisfy you? Or was the money good when they had work, but there wasn't enough work. Or whatever other reason. And decide whether to stay with them in January, or re-apply to GeekSquad (obviously, secure the new job at Geeksquad before quitting FastTek!)</p>
<p>Option #3
Reverse of Option #2</p>
<p>Bottom line: This is probably not a committment for the next 25 years of your life. You can even ask them what kind of turnover they have (ie, how often do their employees quit, and how often are they looking for new technicians, etc). There is no right or wrong decision here.</p>
<p>Hope this helps -

<p>Geek Squad only pays like $10 an hour. Besides that, I know for a fact that Best Buy policy doesnt allow for them to hire 15 year olds.</p>
<p>Yah found out geeksquads only 12 dollars starting BUT they WILL hire me. They siad they dont hire under 18 unless your a+ and they dont see many A+ under 18.</p>
<p>whatever dude. data doctors told me they'd hire me fo shizzel. i annoyed the crap out of them for a month, they finally said they were not gonna do it from the beginning but they didnt wanna turn me away.
get a life and stop dreaming. you'll understand this when you grow older.</p>

Umm ***. I have made just a few phone calls. What do you mean get a life and stop dreaming? I have a life and i am being very realistic.</p>
<p>LOL you are is still on this lie?</p>
<p>Hey i was wondering. What about creating my own company? Than i could make more money and it looks better for the colleges i want to attend (mit , caltech , UCB) . What do you think? Id have to do contracts through my parents since im a minor but it would work...im pretty sure. </p>
<p>Also geeksquad pays very little starting (like 12) so if anything ill do fast teks. Tommorow i gonna go through my phone book and call more companies and ill update.</p>
<p>Wow what a lie! LOL this kid told me he would sue me over my Sig on the Xbox forums! If you don't think this kid is full of crap I have a house on the moon I will sell you for $30.000!</p>
