Working as an umpire for baseball. About 35$ per game.
Its fun but not that much money cause you can only do one game a day usually.

I work at an egg factory, it's kind of my summer job I guess. It's really crappy and I work with a bunch of old women, most times it feels like I am on an episode of the golden girls which would be cool if it wasn't so fucking weird.

No I do no deal with chickens directly, just eggs.

6.50? holy shit that's awful. I mean it doesn't sound like the hardest job, but still, that minimum wage is rediculous. in vermont I think its like low $8??

In ontario canada where I spend my summers it's like $10.25 minimum.

I'll probably end up doing some more construction work on the trans canada highway this summer. fuckkking long hours...

Cashier at A&W


such a chill and easy job, mostly just sit around and go on my phone, take peoples orders which is mad easy, and do a little bit of cleaning (mopping, sweeping, etc.) thank god we don't have to clean the washrooms, cause we're connected with a gas station and they own the washrooms. Not to mention my boss is the chillest woman on earth, and also a milf.

I work in retail on Ocean Avenue in Carmel and Cannery Row in Monterey. I get paid to talk to people and selling stuff presents a nice challenge, but sometimes people are the biggest assholes, especially in Carmel. However, I get to live for free and work in one of the nicest places in the world.
