re: Would you rather work at Baskin Robins for $7.25 an hour or Kroger's for $7.75

Having worked similar jobs in high school, baskin robbins all day. You will deal a lot less with a certain element of the population, people will be smiling when they get their ice cream, and you are more likely to meet/flirt with other high schoolers. I'd also consider who the "boss" will be. At grocery store, you will have several. Most of which will be bitter at life and take it out on you.
