I have to work at this camp that my mom made me go to, I am not good with children at all and ill be running around screaming "oh my god" at a christian camp... it's going to be terrible *sigh*
What are some normal/weird summer jobs you people worked?
I work for my dad... it sounds enjoyable but its not :(
My dad really needs to calm down at work.
Working with Excel and templates at one of my friends' father's place. 12.50 an hour.
My brother works at Jiffy Lube xD. I'm too young to have a job.
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.
unemployed FTW
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.
Im too young for a job, but some places do take on 15 year olds if you're lucky.
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 work at Cold Stones, free ice cream for me!
last year I was a busboy at a fancy restaurant.
this year I work in a Dunkin' Donuts bakery. it's way better.
The only thing going here is stacking freakin shelves at minimum wage. I HATE stacking shelves. So im not getting a job unless I find something else.
haha...i babysit 7 kids for 60 bucks a day
I'm substitute teaching.
I'm planning to start an onion ring stall with a friend. It could turn out huge profits.. or maybe not.
I'm too old for a summer job...it would be more like a second job along with the all-year-job!
I would totally take that job at camp..Quote:

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
Dude, minimum wage in N.B. last summer was like 6.50$/hour...Quote:

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