I get 12$/h for working on a golf club in the summer. During class time, since they were missing a teacher, they asked me to work at the "Help Center" where students with a problem can come and ask me questions. Also 12$/h for that.

Better to do 20 hours at nearly 20 dollars per hour than 40 hours at 10 dollars per hour.

I make a little over minimum wage (not sure how much exactly to be totally honest) plus tips. Best nights top out around 100 bucks in tips, worst nights could end up being nothing in tips-- average night is like 10~20. But I work 40 hours, so I've got plenty of cash even without tips considered.

ps 100 dollars per year is NOTHING. That's almost 2 dollars per week. Working 5 days per week, that'd be about 38 CENTS PER DAY.

there's definitely been threads like this before... and i've earned anywhere from about 70 cents/hour working as a CIT at a day camp when i was a kid to about 20/hour for a few months in a cubicle, hating every minute.

most of my job time was as a bank teller or head bank teller, ranging from about 9-13/hour.

[LLaMaSaUceYup]

$20 - 30 Dollars every week.

Allowance. lulz.

[jujo07]

I used to work afternoons at a nursing home for $11.55/hr. and at the same time I worked at a paper mill, days shift, for anywhere from $17.50-35.00/hr depending on the day of the week or the amount of hours I could squeeze into the day.

But then I quit both of them to go to nursing school.

[Biff_tech]

Mcdonalds at $8.65/hr
Flynn Roofing $15.00/hr
Now Subway at $10.50/hr lol

[kmay]

Holy **** lol, when I worked at McDonalds I made I think $8.50. I make $11 and print lottery tickets. My last job was a lot attendant at Crown Acura, I got paid to drift brand new cars and always hit something when I parked them. I loved it.

I've had a bunch of jobs over the years. Some basic computer jobs were around 8/hr. One of my old internships at a law firm was around 10/hr before I went to college. Working for Penn Law, I made 8.50/hr. Macy's paid 10/hr for doing the Devil's work, but Nordstrom paid 11.75/hr (I can't believe I chose to go home that summer. What a stupid move that was). Some on-campus research assistant stuff was about 13/hr. I've also had a summer internship pay 35/hr, and I had some tutoring gigs that ranged anywhere from 30/hr to 50/hr depending on the type of tutoring it was.

However, what really matters is the time spent working. The 50/hr stuff was really infrequent, and so it didn't pack much of a punch in the end. The 35/hr one though brought in some decent bang.

The thing is, your earning potential really goes up like crazy in a short period of time. When you're 15-17 years old, you're basically looking at minimum wage unless you earn something better working for a family firm or something. At 18-20, you might be able to nail something in the 10-15/hr range for a fulltime job if you're a smart, hard-worker who knows how to look for decent jobs.

Once you start earning a salary, things skyrocket (but so do costs, unfortunately). I'm honestly really scared to enter the "real world." It's just around the corner for me. In less than a year I'm going to be entirely on my own.

Crown Theaters at 17 makin $7.50/hr
Dunkin Donuts again makin the same
Full-time factory at 17 makin $8.10/hr

Howeva! The tippage from D+D was like $130+ at the end of the month!

Over the last 2 summers, I got $10/hr under the table cash for doing some manual labor for a daycare. That was glorious. Also this summer, I made $10/hr cash for working as a janitor at the same place for about a month. 5 days a week, 1.5-3hrs /day with a good friend of mine. Soooo easy.

Since November of last year, I've had a job on campus here as a lab consultant. I sit at a desk on my computer listening to music and playing games and such for $7.90/hr and $8.40 if I work between 12am and 8am. It's awesome
