U should look into big companies like Foot Locker, Linens n things, BestBuy, etc. & check out the sales rep positions, even the traveling type, or District sales manager type position, don't hold yourself to just standin n sellin, all big companies like COACH, Aeropostle etc. have traveling sales reps that get paid to go all over. good luck

PS...I found alotta jobs on Craigslist.com in Jersey & Staten when I was lookin

IDK, I can't eat it :P I'm allergic to Lobster =[ But the cookies are awesome ^_^


I honestly do not want to travel. Just yet I'm looking for a stay in one spot job since I'm going to school in Jersey City. I can't travel that much anyway, the GS is my dads. So all of the miles that accumulate, he gets pissy about it :P
