A regular type job being when I was a green grocer at the age of 15-16 - I earned $14 an hour. Second I work as a photographer so on a commission basis, sometimes the pay can be really good like $500+ for a client.

I currently have my first job, I work at an indoor kids playground. I earn, don't laugh, HKD420 a day for working 10.5 hours. For my first job, it's a decent pay.

Dog walking can also earn you a bit.

Just saying, if anyone wants to make good money. Being a soccer ref in the US can make you $20-40 a game at the club level depending on the age group and division. I haven't done it yet, but I know people that do. Easy money.

I don't know if this counts as a job, but I walk my aunts dog every day, and every week I go over to her house to make her bed, do her laundry, wash the dishes, sweet/vacuum, and clean her bathrooms. That usually gets me around $30.

I currently share a paper run with my sister and get paid (between both of us) $30-50 NZD a fortnight depending on how much needs to be delivered. In terms of what days we deliver, it's twice on a Friday and once on a Saturday/Sunday.

I get paid $10 for a half an hour lesson teaching people piano/guitar, I think that's pretty good pay for a 12 year old and I also go busking in the city and make around $150 an hour but it's too cold to do that at the moment xD

My very first job was when I was 12. It was a paper route and I got 80$ every 2 weeks.

At 14 I was a hockey referee, I got 18$ a game.

Then at 16, I got all my lifesaving courses done NLS and LSI. Got a job with the city I got paid 18$ anhour guarding and 20$ an hour teaching swimming lessons. Been doing this for almost 2 years now.

My first job was a paper route- it only paid 10c a paper, and we delivered around 100 per week. I didn't really enjoy the pay I got for the amount of effort I put in, so I left. I now work at McDonalds[Don'tEvenJudge] with around $10.70 p/h and I work a shift of 3 hours.

Too young for a job, but I mow the lawn once a week and get 10 dollars.
