HS worked at a hotel as a gofer and then at Pizza Hut. College I was a scholarship athlete (golf), so naturally I worked at a country club where I could practice and play for free every day.

Feel bad for some kids because gas is $4.70 for regular where I am at, so no lawn cutting business's or cruising the town for them probably.
That and it seems like all the people that cut grass when I was in HS are still cutting grass for a living 25 years later
HS: stockroom for various retail shops
College: Can't really call it a summer job when you did it all year; but retail, tried service industry for a month, ended up as a bank teller until I graduated

Lifeguard at a country club. It wasn't what you think. The sun was oppressive. Milfs were nonexistent, just a bunch of bratty youngins. Highlight of the day was policing up soiled diapers around the kiddie pool.

While at LSU in 2002, 2003 I worked at Audubon Golf Course in New Orleans on the greens crew right after the renovation. Started out doing simple things and by the end of the first summer, I was mowing fairways and rough on a TriKing and cutting greens. Would work 6-2 every day, then grab clubs and play 9 or 18.
Then Brunos that night or TJs or Madigans.
Was incredible but hot as frick.

My first job was calling potential customers for a carpet cleaning company. Basically just opened the phone book, picked a page, and started dialing numbers. I got paid $10 per customer. In 2 days I made a grand total of $10 so I quit.
Next job was cooking at Pizza Hut. Kept that job from my junior year of HS til I graduated from college. It was great, especially with all the food perks.

Kitchen at whatever that restaurant was after portobellos closed.
Sold blood plasma 2x a week for about 2 years
AV guy at big cox auditorium classroom
Wing stop Bluebonnet

I'm sure I'm forgetting some too.
