I was a cook at a pizza restaurant when I was 12.. I'm 14 now, got fired because the manager hired a new cook, his nephew or something... Loved it, though, and I can make great pizza and pasta from scratch now ;).

If you're pretty

Wine stewardess/salesman

A real stewardess probably has another job at the restaurant, but the little girls that come & display wine at liquer stores are just ass. Most know nothing about wine, & aren't paid to know. Stand there, look pretty, & flirt with anyone who looks like they might be thirsty. Most of these girls came in after a day of photoshoots, or college. You work 1-2 jobs every other day; a couple hours a piece.

I've been doing telemarketing since I was 17... not at the same company, though.

One of my friends from HS was a scuba instructor. Well, is, actually, now he lives down in the Keys doing it, though.
