I was a RA for about 2 years and I honestly liked it. It paid better than most other college jobs, I had a room all to myself, and it was really flexible and worked around my class/extra curricular schedule.

The one thing that I HATED about it was what we used to call "overnight duty". The RA's of the building had assigned nights that they had to be "on call" in case a resident was having problems or whatever. The only calls I EVER got were from drunk freshman girls at 3 in the morning who needed to be let into their rooms b/c they didn't want to carry their keys with them.

Yeah, they do the same thing by us iwth over night duty. There is a limit here though how many times you can call to be let into your room, after that they change the locks and charge you for it ($100 each time they need to). Here it seems that the RA's get woken up most when a student needs to be sent to detox because they come back into the dorm that f*cked up.
