This isn't how I'd pictured getting a job, so I'll tell you guys how it happened. This morning I was sitting on my couch drinking coffee and working on a javascript assignment for one of my classes. About 10am I get a call from an IT staffing company. They say one of their people called in sick and they wanted to know if I could fill in. Long story short, I set up a new network printer in a department store. Took 1.5 hours and I made 60 bux! 
Hopefully they have other jobs in the future. This is the first I.T. job I've had in over 4 years (I.T. was my secondary job in the Army). Moreso than the much needed money to pay for the A+ and Microsoft 70-680, I'm absolutely THRILLED to have more I.T. work experience to put on my resume!
For anyone else looking for a job and not finding anything out there, I found this one on craigslist.

Wow! 40 bucks an hour for your first IT job. Granted it was only 90 minutes of work, but thats pretty cool lol!
