My Part-Time Job Dilemma: Kumon or Fast Food?

Pre-College Issues Summer Programs
1

Hello!

This is fairly urgent as I may have to choose between one of the two jobs that I currently have as a high school student. I’m struggling to choose between the jobs as they both have their pros and cons.
Kumon:
sitting down
calmer environment//less stress
receptionist position
working from home positions available

Fast Food:
better people
much more tiring//my legs are incredibly sore after work
I get a free meal if I work x amount of hours
I have to be outside occasionally :frowning:

I’m very split between these two jobs and I would like to choose based on which job would “look” better on college applications. Would Kumon as an academy or fast food as a high-stress environment look better on college applications?

Neither looks better on a college application. Colleges will see that you worked. They know that working takes a skill set that is good for college–getting up on time, customer-service skills, reliability, professionalism.

Take the job that you prefer. There are no wrong answers here.
