i'm basically the bookkeeper for all of the employee housing in big sky. its pretty much an office/ computer job, which kind of sucks, but the pay is nice, and I make my own schedule, which is pretty great.

i also "work" at a shop.  It's not at all uncommon for my manager to collect a few bucks from everyone then come back with a 12 pack for the night.  I had to work on my birthday this year and I got pretty drunk at work on his money, it was good times.

I will hopefully be working at a shop when I turn 18 (they only hire people 18 or older).

haha, my shop has a few 14 year olds working for us.  Their parents are good friend of the owner so they got the job.  One of them is nicknamed "child labour."
