Lifeguard at a local water park.
The fill in guy (Produce, dairy, frozen, grocery, Floral, and specialty departments) at Kroger.
Both were minimum wage around $7 and both were around 30 hours a week. Kroger keep trying to make me full time to the point that my hours where 2-8PM while my school finished at 2:30PM.
Enjoyed the lifeguard job, but dealing with people and the heat was no bueno.
Kroger wound up being one of the best places I've worked at. All of the managers knew that I could help any of the departments get organized and up to speed, so they turned a blind eye to me avoid customers, grabbing a "damaged" snack for free, never participating in helping the employees retrieve carts/bag groceries/help people out with the groceries, ETC.
Babysitting, I think for $1/hr, when I was 13. I was a great babysitter The neighbors' daughter had some mental health/behavioral issues, and as it turned out, I was the only sitter they could use. I played with the kids so much that their daughter didn't have her usual separation anxiety, which allowed the mother to go out. This was in the mid 70s, and I think a dollar an hour was low even back then, but I loved playing with the kids, and watching TV alone in their house after the kids went to bed. I thought it was a great job!
Electrician’s helper for $50/week. Minimum wage was about 4x that, but technically I did not have to be paid because it was a credit bearing internship during high school.
