A Good Summer Job?

I'm about to finish my first year of college and I need to start thinking about what I'm going to do over the summer. I worked at a fast food restaurant during my last year of high school and it was miserable and I never want to work at a restaurant again. What summer jobs would you guys recommend?

What are your qualifications?

Ref paintball!

Or a grocery store. Easy money.

" What are your qualifications? "

Work IT for your college.

I'm a Computer Science student with a little over a year of work experience. I'm not really built so anything that requires a lot of physical labor really isn't for me. "

Wait tables or deliver pizzas. You can make $15 - $20 an hour.

look for companies that high college students. during my summer of being college student i worked at a place that only hired college students during the summer because they knew that college students needed money. look for insurance companies. it's where i worked, two summers i worked in the mail room i delivered mail and the other summer i was maintenance, i did stuff like walk around the building picking up garbage.

last year i worked at a autobody shop, it was loads of fun so do that if you can.

this is infinitely helpful to me too, only I have never worked at all :/ and thinking about asking for applications triggers my deep social issues, so that's gonna be fun

Delivering pizzas isn't a bad idea. I wouldn't mind making money by driving around listening to podcasts all day. I just wish gas wasn't so expensive. "

If you deliver pizzas they comp give you money for gas "

Yes I'm sure he's been looking for a summer job for over a year xD

Get an internship, probably won't be easy if you're only in your first year (like myself). It depends on your major I suppose.

I work at a movie theater. Much better than working in a kitchen, in my opinion. Also, free movies.

Be a waiter! That is what I did last summer and made a pretty decent pay.

Edited: Lawlz, this thread is so old. X3 Didn't even bother to check the date.

Try to get a job with local public transit, or, any government agency. I got my foot in the door my second year of undergrad and got a job making 47k doing fucking data entry right out of university.

PSA: THIS THREAD IS NOT RELEVANT AT ALL ANYMORE

If you can swim decently well, being a lifeguard pays well. I've done that for many summers in the past. It does get pretty boring after awhile, but it payed well for me. Training takes up to a week at most.

Prostitution is an option.

@wolverine: Find a good staffing agency and you can probably swing a warehouse job or something.

From what I have heard and read some don't give gas money and a lot don't even come close to giving you how much money gas actually cost you.

edit: just realized this is almost 2 years old.
