I've just recently got one. I reckon I would call it a job...

I'm a student as well yes. My job is ... well, my family owns a chinese takeaway business. I man the desk at the front on Friday's and Saturday's. They're my regular shifts. On Friday I work from 5-9, and on Saturday, 5-11

Then I have other days like Christmas Eve, and New Year's Eve.

My wage? Depends where you live tongue.gif Anyway, I get £10 a night, which isn't bad. I used to just get £5. We opened recently, and there weren't too many people. But business is steady and rising... kind of.

It's hard, juggling your job, school and general social life. As this is a family business, I can't exactly go "I quit" and nor will my parents sack me. Which I guess is an advantage and a disadvantage. It means I'll have to work, until I finish school.

I find myself, too busy, and stressed. What with major exams, homework, and my job. Especially now, Christmas.

I work one night, next night, visit my relatives for Christmas dinner, and the next, visit more friends. Then a break, and two more nights at work. Then a break, and finally another day at work. I have to study for major exams, and I'm getting worried, looking at the time I've got.

Not to mention, my social life, which is zilch. My social life, sad as it may seem, is only coming out of the internet. If I cancel that down, my life is basically ... boredom.

My wages, and my pocket money I have to save. My family isn't particularly rich. If I get into the university I want to go to, I'll have to get a student loan.

My age, doesn't reflect who I am inside. To deal with all of this at my age, I would say is pretty mature...

Well I'm just going to update my entry, since that was like around 3 years ago. I graduated early this year and I'm now working in the IT arm of Safeway (I don't know if people from the States are familiar with the chain of stores) here in my country. I just started in October as a trainee and now I'm a programmer analyst (although I'm still in the orientation part since we're being introduced to the technologies we're going to use at work). I earn enough (actually, more than enough) for starters. Work's going to be hectic in a few weeks from now so I still have some free time. Trying to make the best out of it.

I would like a job... But there is not many jobs around here for people as young as me. All I can do here is to clean old ladies houses.^^

Well back as a freshman and sophomore in high school I did some landscaping for seven dollars and hour. I did this with my friend because his father owned the company but soon he moved on and because I couldn't drive I had to look for something else. Now a little over a year later as a junior I have spent some time applying for jobs now that I am finally 16 but I failed for a while until I ran into an old neighbor who is opening a pizza business. So now I will be working there which I am grateful for. Not sure what I will be making but I will be happy for anything because I am saving for a trip to Europe for school this summer.

I am currently 15, but I have not had a job yet, unless you can consider volunteering at the school lunch line, or volunteering at non-profit organizations.
I'm planning, though, to get a job over the summer. Time to mass email companies. smile.gif

Erm, I deliver papers for the local free newspaper. The wage changes every week, but the pay is crap.

Way to go, MB! I knew you'd make us proud! Yes, Safeway is HUGE here. We live in a tiny village and shop at Safeway when we go to town. They've got pretty good stuff, I especially love their new "O" organic line. Good prices on that too.

I'm unemployed now, again. Saved up $10,000 USD toward a new work truck from the last job that only lasted five weeks. I just need a few more of those jobs or one that lasts a few months and I'll have all I need for the truck. I'll post a picture when I finally get it.
