Summer is coming and the countdown has already begun! As of Today Friday June 8th we have 7 school days left. Over the summer many are focusing their summer solely on friends and having fun, but everyone needs money to do the things they want to do. So what do you do? Get a job! Many places are looking for summer help, restaurants, summer camps etc, they pay well too.
Summer events that you will need money for are, Concerts, The big John Mayer concert is at the end of July, don’t miss it. Road trips, beaches, and amusement parks cost lots of money and most teenagers cant afford that, and don’t think that your parents are going to help out either.
Hanging out by the pool, getting tan, going to friends houses and having fun is what summertime is all about. Waitresses get paid minimum wage but their tips all ads up; even in small restaurants you can end up getting a lot of money a night. Summer Camp jobs, like counseling pays between ten to eleven dollars an hour.
If you want to do what you want this summer and it costs money, do what you need to do and get a job.
