potential conflict- need help!

Career Opportunities & Internships

<p>Okay so I have this internship with a bank in my area in the risk management division which I’m excited about. Its M-F 9 to 5 and compensation is 1000- taxes per month. However, I was planning to waitress on the side in order to make extra money, and I generally have fun waitressing. </p>

<p>Since I would be waitressing for a country club, its only open thurs-sun for dinners. However, I’m worried that there will be a conflict because I am supposed to get out of my internship at 5, and usually the dinner shift for waitressing starts anytime from 4-5…</p>

<p>So I don’t know how to go about fixing this problem. I was thinking about emailing the HR lady to ask if I could cut a half hour of my lunch, or come in half hour early, but I don’t want to annoy anyone at the company before I even get there…But I do want to waitress, in order to make more money (since I use the money from the summer throughout the school year). </p>

<p>Thoughts, comments?</p>

<p>1000 per month only??? is it a really small bank?</p>

<p>Since they are paying so little the should understand you need to work the second job. I think it’s reasonable to explain and ask to work more at other times.</p>

<p>It’s a small bank, its actually a subsidary of a larger bank and I’m working in one of the smaller branches. A lot of my friends are working for free, especially those in the finance industry. </p>

<p>Also, I’m a sophomore…so it was even more difficult to find finance related internships this summer. </p>

<p>hmom5, do you think its going to put me on the wrong foot to begin with at the office? That’s the last thing I want to do. However, I am not looking for the internship to turn into another summer internship or full time employment. I just dont want to **** anyone off, but at the same time would like to work on the side.</p>
