Buffalo Chicken Tender Sub.

Bread is fresh, they use boars head meat and have all fresh ingredients. They are fucking amazing. If you ever go to Florida, find a Publix and order a Chicken Tender Sub. Then thank me.

Was a Dining Servers Assistant. Pretty much made appetizers, served food and cleared tables, bused tables, and looked damn sexy. Also the bartender would have me relay messages to girls he was trying to bang which was...interesting...

I lined soccer fields/re-painted the lines during the soccer season when I was pretty young. It wasn't that it was a bad job, but I was too young to realize that they were paying me next to nothing to do it.

I turned my first trick at 13 behind the circle K. Gotta get me some Pop Rocks.....


Na.. Started scraping skis at the local shop at 13. I hung out there non stop. Finally they told me to take out the trash and grab a scraper. The rest was history.

First legitimate job was at Mills Fleet Farm as a cashier and sporting goods clerk. Cashiering sucked but working in sporting goods at the gun counter and restocking hunting and fishing gear was fun.

This guy knows what's up. Publix deli is second to none, best damn sammiches on the planet.

My first job was at a publix in fact. Second job was at Hollister, no shame in it. Hollister was the hot shit in 2003. Plus, the amount of female talent at that store was off the charts. It was totally kick ass job for a high school kid.

I buffed vinyl floors for all the Rite Aids in my region. Pretty chill starting at 10pm working until about 2am a couple times a week. I was still in high school though so sometimes it sucked. I also worked at papa johns. Stupid jobs are awesome and really fun to quit.

Pushed grocery carts at a ghetto basket (market basket grocery store). The boss was a absolute dick and had a bald dick shaped head. Left that job to be a lift operator.

I work at a pool store at in Rochester Minnesota, another dude on this site worked at other one in town. The first summer I worked there I pretty much just cleaned around the shop but this last summer I actually built some pools worked on hot tubs. 8-12 hour days every fucking day. I definitely can't see myself working there for more than my college career. I made bank this summer. I'll be going back for the third summer and hopefully I'll get a raise and make even more money for fun things.

I keep reading the title of this thread as "foot job." To contribute, my first job was camp consular. Pretty fun as my coworkers where all my age (16) or older and in college (over 21: has benefits.) We fucked around a lot inventing new sports like SUP baseball and cooler rafting and the infamous "who can make the best ninja star out of crap in the work-shed" game. This didn't end as badly as I expected with only some minor scars on our hands. I wan't to go back this summer. We ended up with something like:

Anyways for those young-ins looking for there first summer job, find a day camp in your area and work there, especially if you know the people and befriend them. That's Diped's two cents anyways...
