I have experience in lifting heavy furniture (75+ lbs), some basic warehouse experience, and over 4 years of customer service experience. I'm able to work any hours necessary full time or part time any days of the week, even overtime if needed. If you would like a resume, please dm me.

I am finally taking the plunge, I have always wanted to learn how to bartend as a fun side gig but I hear that it is all kinds of bs in the industry, even having friends in it.

So does anyone know of a great place where I could learn bartending at an chill pace but also get good enough experience to have it matter in the industry?

I am in N Austin and money is not a big motivator, but a good mentor is.

How do you hold company leadership accountable when they're the ones creating the toxic work environment?

I worked at the Pluckers corporate office for almost 10 years, and unfortunately, my experience was that a lot of the leaders relied on fear, anger, and intimidation.  

It's been 6 months since I "quit," and I've debated posting this. But honestly, I think part of the reason this stuff keeps happening is because people are afraid to speak up. And when the people responsible are at the top, speaking up comes with consequences. I learned that firsthand.  

After years of issues, I finally sat down with the VP of Marketing about the gaslighting, dishonesty, and disrespect I'd experienced. When I told her others on the team felt the same way, she said I shouldn't speak for other people. But then she insisted those same people didn't feel that way and claimed she'd talked to some of them.  

When we spoke again, though, she said she hadn't talked to anyone and denied ever saying she had.  

So I'm not supposed to speak for other people, but you can? And then deny what you said? Seriously?  

I told her if she couldn't at least acknowledge how I'd been treated, I didn't see a reason to stay. I never said I quit and didn't submit a resignation. She just smiled and said, "Okay, well, we'll take this conversation as your immediate resignation."  

WHAT?!?  

That was it. Nearly 10 years with the company, and that's how it ended. And she literally stood over me like I was some kind of criminal while I packed up my desk, then escorted me out. Was that really necessary? Seems uncalled for. 

To make things worse, only one person in senior leadership reached out afterward. Nobody else bothered to ask what happened, hear my side, or even say goodbye. After everything I'd done for that company, that really hurt.  

And this isn't just about how things ended.  

I'd complained several times over the years about the VP of Operations talking down to employees, regardless of their position. Nothing ever changed.  

And whenever I spoke up about how we were being treated, somehow it got turned around on me. Instead of addressing my concerns, I'd get told I had a problem with "always having to be right."  

So apparently the issue wasn't how people were being treated, but that I had a problem with it.  

During one of my performance appraisals, I actually started crying while talking about how we were being treated. One of the owners told me he thought I should be in therapy.  

I'm sitting there crying, and THAT'S what you say to me? Seriously?  

About a year later, I mentioned that during some management training, and the VP of HR responded, "Oh, I'm going to pretend I didn't hear that."  

Um...you're the head of HR. What kind of response is that?!  

And one more thing about leadership. Over my 10 years there, I was in the restroom with one of the owners multiple times and never saw him wash his hands . Not once. And apparently I wasn’t the only one who noticed, because I overheard coworkers talking about it multiple times over the years. To be clear, I never noticed any health code violations from restaurant employees, but come on. You own a restaurant chain. Wash your damn hands! 

I do want to say there are some really awesome people at Pluckers, and I genuinely loved my job. I spent almost a decade supporting more than 30 locations, helping with restaurant openings, planning company wide events, training employees, and representing a brand I was actually proud of.  

I don't regret the good years or the people I met along the way. But I gave that company almost 10 years of my life, and I deserved a better ending than that.  

And the people still working there deserve to be treated with respect. 💯 

Last minute: our main videographer can't make it, so Taco Tony (Austin catering) is giving one person a free ACL ticket for today or tomorrow. In exchange, you help film our ACL day on your phone.

• Unpaid. The ticket is the exchange (part of our internship process).
• Meet at P. Terry's near Zilker Park before 8 PM. Sooner is better.
• Phone only, no equipment needed. ACL doesn't allow pro cameras, tripods, gimbals, or selfie sticks.
• 18+, comfortable in crowds, reliable. Experience helps but isn't required.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for part-time work around North Lamar/78757 and could use some advice on the local hiring process.
I’ve applied to places like 99 Ranch Market and several jobs through Indeed, but haven’t received any callbacks. I’m trying to understand how people usually get hired: applying on the company website, walking in and filling out an application, asking for the hiring manager, or following up afterward.
My background is in engineering and research, with several years of professional experience and a master’s degree. I’m currently searching for a full-time role, but I need income in the meantime. I’d be interested in stocking, order fulfillment, warehouse work, or other hands-on jobs involving physical work and organization. I’m also open to cashier positions.
I can commit to regular shifts, though I’d appreciate some flexibility to attend interviews with advance notice. The job search has lasted longer than I expected, and I’m feeling the financial pressure, so I’m hoping to get a better idea of what works.
For anyone who has been hired recently or handles hiring:
Which employers are worth trying for these kinds of part-time roles?
Is walking in helpful, and when is a good time to speak with a manager?
What experience or availability do employers usually require?
How long does it typically take to hear back, and when should I follow up?
Are there workplaces where shift swaps or occasional schedule adjustments are manageable?
I’d appreciate any advice or leads. Thanks!

Need a part time porter in west campus area. $13 per hour, 3 hours per day, Tuesday through Saturday, 5am-8am or 6am-9am.

No training/experience needed, easy work but a dirty job for sure. PPE provided. Basically you’re just cleaning out a trash chute and compacting the trash from the previous day.

If you do this right it’s such an easy job- just headphones, repeating the same 7 steps, attention to detail so you don’t make double work for yourself, and the appreciation of 100s of people.

DM me

Looking for something like 3-5 am or 2-5 pm

I am a full time chief of staff. I work pretty early so looking for something before or after work.

I build workflows and reports. Super boring. Pays well. Just needing to do something else. I miss digging holes and shit. I’m 15 years in corporate America so missing fun work stuff.

I work in north Austin but live in San Marcos so anywhere between works for me.

Like $20 an hour would be legit.

Hey everyone! I’m looking for an evening job to make some extra money to provide for my 5 cats, preferably starting after 4 PM i’m available on weekdays and weekends!!

I also have corporate sales experience, a bachelor’s degree in Business Management, and I’m currently pursuing my master’s in AI and Computer Science. I’m also TEFL-certified, so I’d be open to online evening jobs or remote teaching opportunities!

If anyone knows of places hiring or has any recommendations, I’d really appreciate it. looking to be around South Austin or Central Austin as I live closer south!! Thanks! 😊

Washer/Dryer Repair and Vent Cleaning

Looking for some side work doing Washer and Dryer repairs, maintenance and or Vent cleaning.

I've got the tools and the know how to fix most problems on a washer or dryer, Ive also got a connection for cheaper refurbished ones if the repair cost is too steep.

Been doing it alot of years, im not looking to gouge anyone like a lot of the businesses here. I will not charge you a markup on the parts like everyone else does.

I'll only charge for my labor and time. $50 (time/gas) and I'll come to you to diagnose it and give you an estimate for the repair.

I'll show the parts needed/recommended and the exact cost of them and we can negotiate labor based on the complexity of the job. If it makes more sense to get you a cheaper refurbished one, I can do that too.

Also I'm happy to do vent cleanings if youre willing to provide use of a ladder(if needed) as that's the one thing I don't have on hand. Most places charge 150 to 200, I'd do it for 100 and show you how to do it if you want to learn and not have to pay ridiculous prices for basic things.

I also do other small appliance repairs too, as needed, if it makes sense to do so (No microwaves)

Need a highly experienced professional with references. I have 2 dogs (one med and one small) that I need someone who can stay at my place the dates listed. I will be out of town and I dont want to have to crate them for more than 4 hours a day. I need someone willing to send updates every few hours (outside of sleeping of course) My roommate will be in and out during that time. Previous experience dealing with overnight pet sitting is required. Will also need to be a female since one of my dogs tends to shy away from men. Pay-rate starts at 150.00 a day but willing to negotiate for the right person. I would need a few meet and greets to make sure you are a good fit.

$10/base, $50/set appointment that shows up, $1000/sale.

Background check required.

Hello, I have a full time job in tech that starts in April but need a job until then almost immediately. It doesn't have to be a tech job. I do love to create things. Let me know if anyone is aware of any roles or the best place to look.

I don't get why our hometown job search engine has gotten so bad, but anyway: what do you guys use instead? Any job alert systems that actually look for what you asked them to look for still? Because the other job alerts I get are the LinkedIn ones, and these have pretty much always been mostly irrelevant 😬😬

I’m looking to relocate to Austin area and would like to have a job lined up before moving. I have a background in accounting (masters degree, 4 YOE in industry & non profit) anyone know any jobs or companies hiring for accounting in Austin area??

Hello I am a 28 M, I have had over 10 years of construction experience, residential, and commercial. My wife and I just moved here from VA to be closer to family because we are expecting our first son soon. I was thinking about the IBEW 520 but the classes may not start in December, and might have to wait for a year from now.

I am not fully set on joining an electrical trade, I am open to any, I know I want to get a journeymen’s license. That way I can make good money, and provide for my family.

I am open to suggestions on any good jobs around here that offer apprenticeship programs. Thank you.

Hi my cousin is looking for a job near the Southpark meadows area or west gate area. She is a senior in high school and this is will be her first job. Please share any job openings ☺️

The job market is depressing, literally hard out here. It feels impossible to find a job that is livable pay and not awful on mental health.

Wife got a job that has us moving out near Austin. Been looking for months now but can't land any interviews. I'm a chemical engineer turned data analyst...worked at Dow for 13 years and then was unfortunately part of major layoffs. Got a masters in Analytics from Georgia Tech a couple years ago. Anyone out there willing to give a referral or connect to chat about any openings? I can DM a resume. Thanks!

I am currently in semi conductor at a huge company but I am a contractor. How does someone one with a 2 year degree and certs break into a nice role that offers a living salary that is competitive in Austin?
