Off for the summers and hate sitting at home doing nothing. Looking to find some summer work and make a little cash on the side. Any OT business owners, bosses, CEO's, person who makes decisions looking for someone to help out on the cheap, teach an old dog new tricks, etc. Type A personality that is very organized and detail oriented. I make lists about lists I'm so OCD about organization haha. Would love to learn more about safety, planning, scheduling, buying, estimating, etc. Do have experience with Primavera P6.

Better at selling paper products. Card stock, reams of papers, etc.

I would think being a camp counselor is the most logical option

If you want to start having chest pains and constant stress. Start selling cars. For a living

Are you a student? Either do something fun for little to no money, or go work with some company that can give you experience for the future.

No. Teacher but would like to get some experience in the things listed because I think I would do very well with it just lack the experience everyone wants.

I think you should narrow down what you want to get experience in and then volunteer to help for free one or two days a week. Rinse and repeat for a couple summers and bam you now have the skills to be compensated

shite if you walked into my law office and said you are a teacher and want to learn how to be a paralegal one day a week for free during the summer I'd gladly teach you

My summer jobs were working at a machine shop, a pallet plant, a meat packing plant and life guarding. None of them translated to landing a job after school, but life guarding at the pool was, well, productive. You're only young once, my friend.

Talk to one of these guys at a trade show a couple of years ago. Said he made $12k at one show in Dallas. Avg weekend net at a show: $5k - $6k.
