Studying+Working? Why Not?

     I think we, as a student should take a part time works. The first reason is we learn how to take responsibilities, at least for ourselves. Second, we can get extra pocket money from it. So, we can buy something with our own money or we can just save it. Third, by working we will make new friends and new people, it makes us get wider connection. Fourth, we can get new experiences of course! We can learn from our experiences and apply it in the future.
    As for me, I have been working as a part-time waitress since last December. I can get a lot of  benefits, but still many people underestimated my job. First, because the job is not really well-paid as the other job (such as a private teacher or shopkeeper). Secondly, many people think that being waitress  is not 'cool', because we have to serve people, we are ordered around, and we have to make sure the table and and place are clean.
