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 .   Yes , I know . I tried that.They don't have anything now . So what can I do ?   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 .   I already had that idea .   Well , why don't you go and look down there ?   But I don't know what I would do .   It may be part-time work as a waitress or something.It would be illegal , but sometimes waitresses make a good salary .   Maybe . I don't know .
