I plan to be a Teacher's Aide next summer for this math academy thing. 10 bucks an hour, five hours a day, five days a week, six weeks--all for grading papers and chatting. :D

Edit: Oh, nothing this summer--summer school eats my time.

I wash dishes at an Irish pub.

The two summers before I worked at the local community centre back home basically mowing the lawn, painting, general maintenances like that plus help watch the kids who came to the day care programme. Me+hot summer day+just finishing mowing lawn+bratty kids who know they are misbehaving and know what buttons to press = not good.

I was thinking of getting a job this summer, since I just turned sixteen, and my friend and I both printed out job applications for a smoothie place, but I haven't even pulled out a pen to fill it out yet x.x

It's just too intimidating...plus the idea of interviewing for a job makes me sooo nervous...

I'll work as a gardener for three weeks and get about 3000 bucks for it.

It's not the job i learned. just helping out in my fathers company.

Keep my house clean, weed the gardens, fold the cloths, wash the dishes, bathe the dog, feed the dog, and that's all I can think of right now.

I have to help old people in a home for community service. It's actually a nice place.

Community service is required at my school.

I'm planning to start an onion ring stall with a friend. It could turn out huge profits.. or maybe not.

I work part-time at TJ Maxx as the person who stocks and organizes the clothes racks. I also do fitting room when the people who are in charge of fitting room take breaks/go home, which a lot more fun than stocking clothes. Fitting room is pretty cool because I get to sit on a box and sing to old 90s songs, and all I have to do is give customers a number and chat to them about how the size-0 feminine ideal sucks major balls.

I make about $7.15 an hour and I work either 5 or 7.5 hours a day, so I make off pretty nicely.

I'm too old to have a summer job. I feel old now >:(

Rye getting paid 7.15$ an hour (minimum wage for Canadians some 8 years ago) is pretty sweet. xD

I am working at the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History gift shop. There is currently a huge Star Wars exhibit, and all we sell is Star Wars stuff. I hate Star Wars now.

I make $7.00 an hour, $12.00 for any work past 9 in the evening, and work 35-40 hours a week.
