i know its a bit...racist but my friend said that if you want to work at BK, you just have to learn some spanish, and your all set.

i work for my mom's art co. and i make a decent amout right now considering i just help "manage" a website.

LIFEGUARD- i was one last summer (15) and I got paid pretty good, but the tan and watching girls was really good. Pretty easy work, but its kind of dangerous i guess

You could find a place and try to work as casual labor until you're 16 and then they can put you on the actual payroll. You might make a little less, but it's also untaxed.

Try and see if you can get in on some landscaping or construction. I live in texas so everyone who does that works with a bunch of immigrants who only know spanish, so they always have funny stories, but hey, it pays.

Depending where you live, being a farm hand is great. Pay is okay, depending on who you work for and there's always stuff to do on a farm so you'll always have work. Not to mention that farm work get's you in great shape cause it's very physically demanding.

lifegaurding. in austin i get 9.75 per hr. the only hard part is getting certified, or having to save someone, but that wont happen. you get paid to sit and tan, plus you can yell at people and they have to do what you say.

you need to know golf etiquette, stuff like fixing ball marks on the green, replacing divots, etc. and occasionally someone might ask your opinion on a shot. i only had that happen to me a few times, but some of my friends said that they got asked what club to use a lot. so you should probably know a little bit about each club also.

Paper boying is such a lousy job. You don't make much money considering how much time/discomfort you put into it.

I'm looking at maybe a job at Quiznos, since my friend works there, or being part of the pool staff, cash register, snacks etc.

Yea I know a good amount about golf but Im not good at helping people with clubs because I never know how well they hit the ball. But whatever, I might try it this year, it beats working at a resturant like i did last year
