I did a bunch of odd jobs before I turned fifteen and was legally allowed to work in Florida. I had gigs mowing lawns, selling airbrushed license plates at the Daytona Beach Flea Market, selling ice cream during the races at Daytona International Speedway, going door-to-door selling Christmas wreaths for charity, &c. Once I turned fifteen, though, I was able to get a “real” job. Here are the five best “real” jobs I had before I turned twenty:

1. dishwasher / prep cook · Carmichael’s Sports Pub
2. Sandwich Engineer · Subway
3. line cook · Arthur Treacher’s Fish & Chips
4. counter man · TCBY
5. pool cleaner / lotion sales · Hawaiian Tropic
