I'm not much of a GPA student at my school, so my school can't allow me to get a job until I raise them up a full symester, but I know the manager at Burger King that could give a job as a cashier legally even if the school notices. Should I go for it or should I wait til next year (next symester) to raise my grades and try to apply for some place other than fast food like Target or Best Buy?

No, I worked at BK for two weeks. It sucks. The last time I went to a BK, the night manager was talking to a customer about the BK "education" fund for employees. Her response was, "I been working here for 15 years and I aint seen no money for school". :shock: Don't end up like that.

If you have to ask other people, then yes, you should work there.

If you need money and working at BK is your only avenue available, then do it. It won't be fun or glamorous, but it's a paycheck.

Take whatever is available and make sure it does not affect your grades. School if first always.

If it is a cashier job and you need money then go for it. I worked in the kitchen of a fast food restaruant and it was hell. I am now a cashier and it is a lot better

I work there right now just as a summer job. It's alright because I don't work very often 20 hours a week, but thats all I really wanted.

Personally, I don't want to know what they do with food at fast food places, plus there are better places. Although I do have to ask how your school can keep you from working at certain locations.
