Everyone under 18: Your Jobs

[it5five]

My first job was unfortunately at McDonalds. I would not recommend it to anybody. Worst job ever. When I was 16, I got a job at a gas station, and worked there 2 years. I quit that a couple months ago, and got a job with the United State Postal Service. That job was awesome. All I did was type zip codes and street addresses.

Unfortunately, college came around and I had to quit since they weren't flexible. Now I'm jobless and looking.

I'd like to intern for someone in the video or music industry.....which I might next summer, depending on connections.

I'd work at the Apple Store, but I heard you had to be 18 to work there.

I got offered to do some work at a big law firm in my city last summer. But I was so lazy/busy to bother. haha

For those of you that sell on eBay for people, CompUser/etc, how did you get your name out there? Do people in your neighborhood just know you love computers and ask or do you advertise? I am thinking about trying to do that around here to make some money; just not sure how to get started.

Thanks, Kevin.

just let everyone know that youre an avid ebay seller/buyer like, i picked up this really sweet vase off of ebay, blah blah.

and then people start knowing that you're computer literate and know how to work ebay, so they come and look for you. i'ts that simple.

I don't really know how I got my name out. I just did it once cause the lady didn't know how to use eBay.

I'm 17 and I work for my family's moving company. Not a bad job, the warehouse is 2 minutes from my house so when my dad calls I go and let the trucks in/out.. I'm there for 15 minutes and I get paid for an hour. Works out pretty good.. I usually end up getting about $200 a week for maybe 12-15 hours of physically being there. Kinda sucks when I'm hanging out with my friends that I have to take off.. but I'm only gone for 20 minutes or so and it sure as hell beats saying "Nah, I gotta work today" when I'm asked to go somewhere. I also did web design for awhile, but Craig's List turned into crap, so I got a job at Stop n Shop for 2 months but got bored real quick and started working for my dad at the beginning of the summer and I've been doing that since. I also do a ton of video production through my school, and usually I get 2 paying jobs per month which is like $100 or $200 to pay my car insurance with.

Right now I am unemployed, and I don't really mind. I have school, soccer, and socialization that I have to do.
