Default College jobs?

While I am in college I will be buying an S2000. I am in the National Guard and they pay for my college + $600per month while I'm in school(not including the $200 I get from working one weekend a month). So that will pay for my car and insurance. But I was wondering what jobs pay most for a 19 year old college student, I will only be going to school for 2 days a week. Aren't there some jobs who hire specifically college students?

The best type job for cash is a tipped based job. In college I was a waiter and delivered pizza. It is easy to make 12 to 15 tax free dollars an hour working for tips. Plus after ever shift ya walk out the door with a wad of cash. Although delivering pizza or take out would not be good if the company did not provide you with a car and the s2000 was your only car. Valet parking attendend is also good. Or bar tender if ya have the training. Killer cash can be made at Red Lobster...any chain like chilis...tgif...bennigans...apple bees...outback....Hell senoir year in highschool i made 15 dollars a hour at a Friendlys and this was back in the 80's.

The mall. But dude, you really need to redo your expenses. You will easily pay $200+ for the insurance alone. Your car payment and insurance shouldn't take up 80% of your gross income. You will probably not make much more than an extra $250 a week if you work while you're not in class. You need to just put the S2000 on hold and enjoy being young and in school. Your free time is more important than driving a car, especially at your age. You don't want all that responsibility. You should be enjoying the young pretty girls and frat parties. You don't want to be a slave to a car payment.

Remember, they tax the $600 and $200 dollars, so it will be more like $430 and $160.

Yea, i thought being a waiter would be great for a college job. The problem was, all my experience has been in Customer Service and Sales so I wasn't good enough to be a waiter. How am I going to get experience if I dont get a job?

Well, if Circuit City still payed comission, i would say go there. Easy to make $15-20/hr +. Tip based or comissioned sales in a subject you either know or are passionate about.
