Hmm, me neither, though I plan to look into it.
I need USD to get PowerBook... (^_^)
Maybe I'll try work at theater, I dunno.

Quiznos Sub

Usually 3-close three or four days a week and 9-3 Saturdays. Making $7 an hour ($400 paychecks every other week after taxes).

Now, whether or not I'm alive at the end of the day is another story...

I work part time as assistant to the MIS Director in the US office (~50 people) of a global non-profit organization. I deal with Microsoft crap for three afternoons a week. Sometimes it's not fun at all, but it pays well.

work? so how old does that make you?

Military.

Shamefully enough.

Why? Because when I joined I didn't think twice.
It happens that my experience has led to my complete
reversal in politics.

I am 20

I work for BTexact (the R&D division of British Telecom) as an OSS Engineer. Which in short just means I'm a software engineer (I work on all stages of the development cycle)

I'm 20 too. After the summer I go back to Uni for my final year.

Mostly I do Java/HTML stuff, though as always I like coding in C++.

What?! You all are 20?? I'm 16, but I should be 24.

By the time your 24 you'll wish to be 16 again.

Hmm...yeah...but I should be 24 as of now. (^_^)

I used to worked at a pizza place for 3 years for AUD$10/hr. Paychecks of about $70-$100 a week. Although now that I've moved to Brisbane city for university (doing Computer Systems Engineering), I'm thinking of getting a night fill job at a supermarket. I'm 17, btw.

I only take a job during summer. Last year I worked for Bosto (produces rice, like Uncle Bens). Basically what I did was maintainance of the mills, which comes down to cleaning up the rice when they spill (as in shovel up a 2m high pile of rice) and replacing dust filters (filters as in 10m long filters, this is icky stuff). And that's about it. It does pay good.
