shotgun instructor at a summer camp.  the pays not great but they cover housing and food costs and i get to shoot shit all summer.  after that, i'll just collect unemployment until the ski season starts again.

Working at a charity taking old donated computers and installing windows and shit on them. Pays very well, just extremely boring. All in all a sweet gig

To summarize: sick summer camp

4am to 9am? If I could get used to that sleep schedule that would be kind of dope. You'd e done with work and ready for the day every day by 9, wit nothing to do till 4 AM the next morning! Working in an orchard sounds like a shit job though. Seems like you're gonna be working with a lot of Mexicans..

I've got a job interview to be a stockker at a grocery store tomorrow.

Just got an awesome job with a Summer camp for rich nerds at a big name private University in the Bay Area. Going to be running the residential program. I'm really excited and it has career potential even if though it has very, very little to do with my actual field of study.

WOO! I start my first day as a line cook at Sliders sports bar. I've never cooked before (as a job) so this is going to be fun! and $10/hr to start, around 30hr/week. I can live off that for the summer.

Import/Distribute German manufactured industrial supplies in the good old USofA. It's a good gig for sure, but I'd be lying if told you that I never missed the days of working seasonally as a ski instructor/bar tender.
