Hope it doesn't be come a living hell. I know some friends that have, no they didn't go nuts. Just that someone like me (anti-social) don't like being in public jobs.

My first job (if anyone cares) was just a humble paper route. But now this year I'm looking to get on a construction crew. But thats to be seen by March or some time like that. I also don't mean to detour your thread, if that's what happens.

i'm getting my first job this summer. i might work at a store or restaraunt. my freind started a lawn mowing buisness and makes a lot of money so i'll probably end up doing something like that. i live in a neighborhood full of rich old people (not including me) so they usually pay around $25 to mow a lawn. i could easily get over $25-$50 an hour that way

Ya, never underestimate a rich persons willingness to not work. I have to get some spending money for when im in college. I'm sending out resumes everywhere i'm willing to work and hopefully one will hire me. Luckily i'm a people person so I can do cash easy.

Wait a minute, I work at Radioshack, in the California Bay Area, and they only pay me $6.75 an hour! What gives?

My first job back in 1996 was a roadie/sound guy for a local 80's glam metal-style band. Got paid in beer and other slightly less legal things...

I'm going to have to start looking around for a job sometime this month. I've been thinking about one of the local supermarkets.

I'm hoping i can get a job this summer...i'm only 13....14 next Sunday

and in my area it's hard to get a job at somewhere local, and i dont want to mow lawns or anything like that. For now, i get around 1000 bucks a year.....so soon i hope it will get to 2000.....that way i have lots more money to support my projects
