burger flipper here too, mcdonalds. it sucks, I'm workin like 40 hours a week now. It was the only place that would hire me. Its the only way I can pay for all this skiing stuff though. Not may places hire at fifteen, maybe you could find a dishwashing or supermarket job.

I was gonna get a job at a ski shop but 13 is kinda young, theres just so much stuff i want and no way to pay, my friend is getting a job there cause he knows people there. i have about three thousand, but fora mountain bike i would probably pay about that much, and i want to go to ski camp and i still need ski equipment, the bike has to wait, and i want a car when i get my drivers.

I get paid $13 an hour to sit here on a computer all day and type in smoking vehicle license plate #'s. That adds up to a lot of money, but it gets incredibly boring. I'm 18 though, and you probably couldn't get a job like this until then.

Im a golf caddy, its the only job im old enough to do. I get a ton of money though. 50 bucks from the golf course every 18, then a 20 dollar tip from the millionaires that play at the course.
I racked up over 300 bucks in 4 days days, not bad for a 14 year old eh? I highly reccomend this job.

lifeguarding - usually have to be 16 but check into it, some places allow as young as 14 for junior lifeguards. pays really well - flexible hours and all you really do is sit - with the occasional 'unhappy camper'. colleges and universities hire kids in my area for summer work doing everything. some kids get paid really well for going in for 4 hours and designing stuff on the computer. being a camp counselor SUCKS. you don't get paid anything for the amount of work you do. if you're on salary you can get paid less than minimum wage. call all the ski camps and see if they need someone to file papers and clean floors and stuff in exchange for a couple days of skiing a week. it's all done for the snow . . .

During the winter i am a ski racing coach, and make about 30 bucks an hour.

During the summer i am a downhill mtb coach, making 6.85 an hour and i also work at the local esso, pumping gas at 6.85 an hour.

I also sell shit on ebay. Lots of stuff. I make about 250 a week doing that.

I am thinking about going into telemarketing. Sure, i'll be the scum of the planet, but i'll be making 14.50 an hour!!!!

Ha ha ha, 15 year old at Nortel, dream on. Get a job as a caddy or a busboy at a nice place.

Or you could be like me and design websites at the age of 15 and have some nice cash to buy a car.

Caddying sounds like the place to get big bucks... but I hate golf and don't know shit about it anyway. Plus, my dad was a caddy when he was a kid, and got knocked in the head by a long drive and was in the hospital for a few days. He still has a scar.

The chances of being hit in the head with a drive is pretty slim. I earned 600 dollars in 2 weeks and i never worked again that summer, and i got to play golf for free until November when they close. You dont have to know a damn thing about golf, just be strong enough to carry clubs.

Yeah exactly, you don't need to know anything about golf...It's only good when you want to make conversation with your players.

Oh, and I almost got hit with a drive on the first hole that I ever caddied. I guess the guy didn't like me to begin with, eh? ;-)

dude, my job rules, today i spent like 4 hours sitting on a cooler outside talking to my friend (who was just walking down the sidewalk and saw me sitting outside the back of the store so came by) about skiing. i got paid $8/hour to sit on a cooler and talk about skiing with a friend. Dishwasher at a small resaurant in a small town kicks ass.

I have no clue what I would have to do cause I couldn't do it. Something about making the pizzas, tossing them on that rolling oven thing, then starting over and doing another one. Might get boring, but for $15 an hour... Hopefully either this winter or spring they still will have the same offer, but I doubt it because then they have people from the local high schools and colleges working there and they wont need people.
