From time to time I make some programs for my dad's company and get ~600$ (usually takes a week of programming).

Damn.

Programmers are so overpaid

Not most, most live in India and are quite underpaid Clokr_ is just a lucky duck

I write articles for companies that basically summarize general products (today, for example, I wrote 14 pages on Bluetooth phones). It's only $3.50 a page, or about $.012 a word. However, I write at a fast enough speed to make about $13 an hour, and I get to work at my own pace and for as long or short a time as I want. Some weeks I only make $100. Other weeks I make up to $300. It's certainly not horrible for a part time job that I never put in more than ~20 hours a week for. Besides that, the money I save on not having to drive makes it all the better.

Well, freelance programmers, computer consultants, and enterprise license/service contracts all have ridiculous costs.

I have full time job in bank as account manager.

I've been working at local grocery store in my boring small town, minimum wage ($8.50/h CDN). I'll soon be, hopefully, working at the hospital in a city casual/part time in kitchen or housing. Since the hospital is unionized, minimum wage there is $13/h, and weekends and after 4pm the wages go up. I'll hopefully be working there while i take a full course load of university.

Do you get to wear a little red vest?

Well, if I work the whole afternoon on that during a week, that is ~5h * 7days = 35 hours of work I get paid ~17$ per hour. And programming is a pain, you never know how long a project will take.

The good thing is that I get to work at home

Just maroon polos.

Do you dress more like this:

I wanted a job at Taco Bell, but it didn't work out

Vying for his job?

I have been happily working at Price Chopper for almost 1 year now. (October 8^th) and for extra money, I have been mowing lawns with my step dads landscaping company.

From Price Chopper I get payed $7.50/hour
From Landscaping company I get payed $7.75/hour

I get on average ~$200 from mowing lawns a week and about ~$150 a week from Price Chopper.

I work ~50 hours a week (7 days) on and off from P/Chopp and every morning, granted its not raining, mowing lawns with my brother.

To all of you slackers out there who us working people pay welfare to, GET A FUCKING JOB!

Just graduated highschool, I'm currently working 50-55 hours a week, I'm on a salary not a timeclock so and I'm over 18 so I don't get overtime and it is legal. Getting paid about 2750 (13-14ish an hour) a month before taxes. I am managing a pizza store.

Last year I worked 30-40 hours a week at the same place, and had a part time job as a sailing instructor. This was during the summer.

I once tried having 2 part time jobs during the school year, but both my bosses got so frustrated scheduling me and what not that they forced me to quit one of them.

Since the start of the year, I have spent about $500. At this point I have about $15k stored up for no apparent reason.

I'm a freak.

I'm 15 and I'm bringing in at least $30 a week just from coding PHP Won't last long though, I have to get a job next summer..

You realize Ejac, you have been saving that money for me.

All told, your pizza store doesn't pay their managers very much

Our local waste management plant salaries their entry-level workers are over $40,000/yr - which is roughly $20/hr. Yes, union jobs are like that. And yes, they came into my freshman year biology class a few years ago and actually started advertising for jobs

I'm a model for Hollister in Utah.

I am 14 I earn £55-£70 per flash banner/advertisement I design I make around 4 a week and they usually take me about 2 Hours per one.. yes so overpaid .

Plus I already live in a rich family so I dont really use the money, I plan on saving and then investing in the interwebs (not sure which site yet though).
