"Did you get a job yet?" asked his parents

I'll call and see what they say. I realize I should have started applying earlier.

You should give Halliburton or Dick Cheney a call, they just recieved a 72 million dollar "bonus"....so in case you were wondering where those Park and Recreations dollars were going...

I'll bet they could find you a job in Iraq for the summer. Worth a try!

If you were ambitious you would have already looked possible internships, and/or REUs. These deals funded by NSF, and the likes, provide room and board as well as pay around 2500-4000 for the summer. You can still look into these, but most had deadlines that have already past. Still, this is a great future reference.

Try being a man whore.

A bit second on the REU stuff. I did that for a summer and made good cash compared to everyone else, got a great resume builder, got great research experience, got published, and had all the time in the world for running, girls, and booze that summer. Also met a lot of great people. It's no wonder I ran so well the fall after that.

Start looking in October the summer before you want to start, and get your applications in early. If you're a science/math person, you shouldn't have any trouble finding one.

Unfortunately, by your example you would be required to work 7.5 days a week.
