When I was 16 I worked on a golf course, the members were bitchy & treated me like a Mexican slave so it was kinda shitty

I started working when I was 14, as a "prep- cook" at a restaurant. Basically I just set up all the food for presentation on the plates, and really didn't do much cooking at all. When I turned 16 I was finally able to start bussing tables so I got a job at a much fancier job, and eventually from there I have worked up to being a Server (you can't serve alcohol in my state until you are 18).

I worked in a coffee shop in high school, and continued to work in coffee shops in college for a while. It's not a bad gig, plus I love the taste/smell of coffee so I liked it. For a while I had a late night shift Monday nights and I used to always wear my work shirt to bed because I liked the way it smelled so much.

Dude i would get so pissed off! That is pretty much the only reason why i do not want to work at a golf course. Most of the people that you work with and that come to play are so rude to young people.
