Who has a job?

Just wondering what kind of summer jobs/afterschool work everyone here on YWS does. Might be interesting, get to know each other better, da?

Anyway, I do secretarial work at a defense attorney's office on Mondays, wednesdays, and fridays. I answer phone calls, file papers, blackball police reports. Yes, I know, exciting stuff. I'm only fifteen though, so I don't work a twenty hour week a normal sixteen+ would work. I'm only at the office about five or six hours/week.

How about you?

I don't have a job XD

My mom is trying to push me to get a school year job now that I have my license, but my dad doesn't want me to, and my mom doesn't run my life really so... yeah.

I'll work next summer. I'd really like to work at a Borders but will probably end up at Walgreens since you have to be 18 to work at borders And I won't be 18 until mid summer.

I'm job hunting at the moment, but it seems a lot of places around here aren't hiring until September.

I sometimes help out at my church's coffee shop type cafe place, it's only small and usually only members of the congregation that turn up. But it's only voluntary, so it's not like I get paid or anything XD

I work part-time from April till Labor Day in a drive-thru snow cone stand. My work schedule is really erratic, so I might work 25 hours one week, none the next, then 10 the week after that. It just depends how many shifts I'm assigned.

My summer job is actually an internship (a paying internship, thank deity) at the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Yes, that one. Do not address complaints to me, as I'm basically relegated to editing privacy statements, making copies, and taking notes at meetings.

I work full-time; usually 40 hours a week, sometimes a bit over. #_#

I left my job about a week ago =) I worked for 6 months at Borders book store, doing 37.5 hours a week. I've left working for a while, gladly.

I've just got my holiday in California to enjoy and then off to University in September.

I've got a job at a health food store. I work full time, but the hours are eratic, so sometimes I get several days off in a row.

*grumbles* No one would hire me. Doesn't help to live in an area oversaturated with students and not many businesses.

I work in a small, quiet Blockbusters. Basically, I get paid to watch Family Guy and Scrubs in the back, and occasionally serve a customer (although Friday and Saturdays can get a little busy).

I also get ten free rentals a week... shame that there's nothing worth renting, though.

I WANT a job.

Unfortunately I'm too young. *sigh*

I work in a zoo, quite litteraly. Though some might prefer the term, pet store. While the rest of the staff works retail, my soul job is maintence and caring for all of the animals, which amounts to thirty different species of reptiles, birds, small animals, ranging from bunnies to hamsters. Then there's the F.W. fish and S.W. too. I've worked in the family own business, not mine, for seven years, and love it.

*drools over Jack's job* I can't get one at Barnes and Noble- which is only seven blocks away- until I turn sixteen.

But, now...I corn detassel. Child labor is rather a Nebraskan thing- we get on buses at four thirty in the morning and drive out to remote places and take tassels [read: cornflowers] off female plants, so that the corn can cross-pollinate and you can, er...eat. I don't know the purpose, exactly, but Claudette calls it 'raping corn'. XD

I only make minimum wage, but hey- it goes up to $5.85 here Tuesday. *dances about* Much better than bagging at the grocery store, as far as hours go. -_-

Five-eighty five? That's outrageously low!! In Oregon, the min. wage is $7.80! But things in nebraska are probably cheaper so the lower wage is essentially the equivalent of the higher wage. Economics. I'll never understand them.

I think I get a whopping six bucks an hour. Woo hoo.

I'm the Specialty and Procurement Manager for a contracting company. 40hrs/week. $8/hour gross.

It's really kind of boring, and I don't really know what the title means. So far it's office slave. Procurement has many different, opposite, meanings...it's really kind of funny. I'm either "obtaining through special means" or "obtaining a prostitute" haha.

But mine isn't just a summer job, I'll work till I go back to school and then I'll work on breaks and such.
