I don't know what I'm going to do . I need to find a job . If I don't , I won't be able to stay here next semester .

Have you tried university part-time jobs ?

What do you mean ?

I mean in the library , or in some information center.Often the university hires foreign students for part-time positions .
neutral
assistant
Yes , I know . I tried that.They don't have anything now . So what can I do ?
neutral
user
Well , since you're a foreign student , it's hard.That ' s because it's actually illegal for you to work in America .

I know that . You don't have to tell me that . That's my problem . I know I have the right to work for the university . That's legal.But they don't have a job for me . And it's illegal for me to get a job elsewhere .

Anyway , there must be some solution.You know there are many people working illegally in New York .

But I need a pretty decent job . I need to make enough to pay my rent at least .

I have an idea .

What ?

Since you're Chinese , maybe you can find part-time work in Chinatown .
neutral

I already had that idea .

user
Well , why don't you go and look down there ?
neutral

But I don't know what I would do .
neutral

It may be part-time work as a waitress or something.It would be illegal , but sometimes waitresses make a good salary .
neutral
assistant
Maybe . I don't know .

I will ask my friends for you.Maybe someone knows a company that needs part-time people.That ' s another thing you should do . Ask all your friends to ask around for you.You might find something .
