That's literally torture for a teenager and his hormones.

Giving away commercial pamphlets in the streets to people

[Cradyz]

Picking strawberries/grapes for a local farmer, though that was more like doing chores for money than a job. Pretty shitty work, barely legal probably since I was like 13, but I wasn't old enough to be hired by a store. When I was I worked in a supermarket for 5 years.

[Celista]

My first official non-gig job was working for the Iditarod Trail Committee, in the downtown gift shop, during high school. It was a great job, the pay was ok and I had a lot of autonomy...I would open and close the shop by myself, and could do my homework if things in the shop were slow. My boss was awesome.
