LadyH answered Monday April 9 2007, 9:03 pm: Considering you're still in high school & you're not really flexible (meaning you can't work days while you're in school), it'll be a little difficult finding a place that pays more than the typical high school job @ the mall.
- You COULD find a staffing agency & see if they have any part-time office jobs in the afternoon. Most temp jobs (through staffing agencies) pay pretty well - the lowest I've seen is $9. But they're usually for people out of school. The likeliness of you scoring a good job with your available hours is pretty slim, but it doesn't hurt to look into it!
- Also, try a place like a hotel working at the front desk. I know of someone who is still in high school & works at one for about $10 an hour.
- Receptionists @ a salon or resort make about $8 an hour.
- If you have a good memory & work well with people, waitressing @ a very nice restaurant may be something to look into. You can make some good money if you're pretty good. But if you're like me, it's probably not your type of job.
- I know department stores like Dillards pay about $8-$9 an hour. So if you wanted a mall job, I'd suggest working there over some other store where you'd only be making about $7 something.
