I'm working at a haunted corn field maze, it's pretty neat so far. Haven't worked an actual day yet so I'm not sure how good it will be. So far it is pretty professional. I just saw it in the newspaper and they have a lot of fliers and ads and stuff.
Although the pay is awful, $25 a night. (We work as "volunteers" so the pay is less then minimum wage but whatever, it's pretty fun for a job.)
I'm a doctor. I'll tell you more about it when I find more to tell.
A doctor at a haunted cornfield maze? Is that a joke? I don't get it.
I avoid jobs like the plague. I've never had a real job yet because working with people scares me and I'm so afraid I'll mess up.
:(
I work in a mail room.
Before this I've worked in a Baskin Robins, a grocery store, a barn being a ranch hand for a local horse breeder. I've also been a banquet waitress and a babysitter.
Unlike Kaz, I'm in search of jobs. Not only because I enjoy being active and getting some things done, but because I also need the money.
I've been working since the age of 13. Started out working as a food vendor with a vendor who traveled around southern Minnesota. That took a whole summer and it was pretty much agonizing, especially for my age. There were times when I had worked 70-80 hours a week.
About a week after that summer gig, I got a job at a local Chinese restaurant and have been working there ever since. Although I hate my job, it does give me something to do.
I'm constantly in search of a new job, though. :'(
i'm applying for a job at the aquarium
I do my father's employees' payroll and file his quarterly tax returns.
Unlike Kaz, I'm in search of jobs. Not only because I enjoy being active and getting some things done, but because I also need the money.
Also because my doctor will not hire me. ;_;

This. Desperately.
:(
[spoiler]um well maybe not desperately but i'm getting at this point
if i really was desperate i'd work where my dad works and holy shit lots of dust and durt and heavy things to carry all day argh madood;[/spoiler]
I have been trying to find a job for a month or so now and have had no luck. Going to fill out more applications today. I really need the money.
I've never been formally employed, but I make decent money reselling vintage Mac stuff and doing commission Warhammer armies.
Im a lifeguard during the summer. I earned 2300 dollars last summer. caterpie;
I work at a dog kennel for $6.75 and hour so count your blessings.....
In the summer I film for AWS which is a skateboard company, and they paid me $3500 plus I got to keep one of the cameras which is like another $1000. So it was pretty nice...
I'm a telemarketer, and I hate my job with a passion.. Yet I've been working there for over a year. doodhuh;

We get the occasional nice guy, but most people are mean...
The nicest thing you can do for a telemarketer is hang up immediately. It's far worse if we have to go through our entire script and then you hang up on us. >.<

i talk to them in my israeli accent and ask them about random things or pretend im ordering a pizza befuddlement
what do you sell hippo
I hang up even before they can talk. baddood;
When a telemarketer calls here, there's some kind of audible delay before the line actually gets to their phone. It's hard to describe, but when it's a telemarketer, I can just tell.
"Hello... TOO LATE! *hangs up*"

It's pretty fun to get paid scaring people.
Also a couple of the girls are pretty cute. One of them pretty obviously likes me but shes a little weird. Pure white hair with long, 2 inch finger nails, with lots of makeup, pink blush and she wore leg warmers today.
I'm not even joking.
