I currently work at a fast food restaurant and make 7.60 an hour and I've been working there for one year my last raise was 10 cents.
I found a new job and the guy said its mine if I want it and starting pay is 8.25.

For my job it's different sometimes I clean dining room for hours or I can do the cash register it differs.
For the other job it's a commercial cleaning service where I clean offices. Vacuum, mop etc.
idk which job to take

Take the job that pays more. You'd be earning 60 cents more with the second job, so let's take that amount, and multiply it by 10 (assuming you work about 10 hours a week)

.60x10= $6

You'd earn an extra 6 dollars per week, or $24 per month. In addition, you'd probably be working more in the summer months, so I would definitely go for the higher paying job. Also, you have more work experience and references if you go for the higher paying one.

I would ask myself these questions

Do I need more money?
Which one would be easier to do?
Is the job worth doing with that amount of pay?

I would go with the second one because it's basically the same as your first job (cleaning).
