$8.00 an hour isn't bad money, it's more than they make at MacDonald's!
Me, I work at a paper mill as an Assistant Machine Operator making an insane amount of money for someone who when the machine is running works about 10 minutes an hour. It's not like working for the big 3 but not bad for where I live.

I work at a hobby shop, sell stuff online, and do paid surveys (online).

$8 an hour isn't bad at all, heck I'm only getting 5.15 an hour at the hobby shop (though I work between 15-25 hours a week), gonna get a raise in a couple weeks though.

well I get $25 a month but I do chores and stuff for it and my dad also says that if I want to earn some extra money he'll let me do jobs around the house for $10 an hour. Yesterday I swept the house, vaccumed, and dusted everything and got $10 which will go towards my blazer conversion. Also if he sees that I'm working hard for something he usually helps out a bit too

I turn wrenches and fabricate machinery for a living, it's ok I guess. I do something different everyday. I guess I would be a mechanic\electrician\electronic's tech\plumber\machinist\welder\news paper reader!

I worked bagging and stacking ice for 2 years, then loaded trucks for a year. The pay really wasn't that good. I started at $6.50/hour and was making $7.50 when I stopped working. I'm in college now and I'm not sure what I'll do for money once summer rolls around. Probably go back to stackin ice! It's a good work out and it's nice to work in a freezer when it's hot and humid outside!

When I was about 12 I mowed lawns ranging from $15 to $25, most of them were for $20. I usually mowed two lawns every other day.
