First job was ski instructing. Sounds nice, but its still minimum wage (yes, minimum).
After that, banquet waiting - all the fun of waiting, plus you have to deal with drunk people,
no tips, and moving hundreds of plates and glasses all at the same time. THAT was a pain in
the ass job!
Almost had to get a job delivering pizzas - still might. Depends if they actually hold true to their
promise of more hours at the bike shop!
