Working at best buy

<p>Hey, I've been working at best buy here in oregon for the past 2-3 months now and I saw that there is a best buy literally right next to ucla.. is this place very accessible.. as in accessible enough for me to work there often?</p>

<p>Plus, do you guys know how many ppl do actually work outside of asucla that are from ucla and have no car?</p>

<p>I'm just hesitant if I should work for asucla or go and take my chances and keep working at best buy (and get the discounts woot).</p>

<p>It's a 20-25 minute walk from the dorms, more or less depending on how fast you walk.</p>

<p>Lots of people work in the general vicinity.</p>

<p>theres a bus isnt there</p>

<p>Well, there is, but it's reeeeaaally not far. I don't necessarily think it'd be worth taking a bus, or if there would be any point, but I suppose you could see where they stop. You'd still have to walk at some point, either to or from the stops depending on which line it is. So meh. </p>

<p>But really, from Ackerman, it's a 10 minute walk down Westwood. Not far.</p>

<p>i think the only busses that run by the dorms (on gayley next to the rape trail) and into westwood are Metro busses. $1.25 per ride. not worth it.</p>

<p>Definitely not.</p>

<p>hmm but im not the only one going to be going out of campus to work right</p>

<p>how well does best buy pay? flex hours?</p>

<p>if you guys have legitamate work exdpereince, like in administrative assistance or accounting or something to that effect, you can find some AMAZING jobs on campus that pay like 16 $ an hour.</p>
