Cashier at a sporting goods store, 2001, I was 16 years old. They had a Ticketmaster counter in the store and I ended up being the head ticketmaster guy. That was pretty fun considering I was still in HS.

2003 I was 18, worked at a GNC...worst job ever. $5.35/hour on commission. But our store was so unknown that we hardly sold shit. The only reason I got the job was because my cousin was the manager. I didn't do shit..but got tired of it after 3 months, so I quit and started working at my dad's body shop.

My answer makes more sense in context with an academic timeline. h:

Odd jobs from 93-95.

95-96:
PT Computer tech for Tam Unified School District. Still in HS at the time, but the pay was decent ($10.50/hr)

97-99:
Graduated HS in Spring 97, PT Independent tech support for aging Macs, attended Academy of Art College in SF beginning Fall 97.

99-00:
Left AAC in 99, FT Mac computer retail sales and support.

00-03:
FT Logistics support & Inventory management for Barnes & Noble. Went to PT in Late 02 to attend College of Marin.

04-05:
Staff reporter, Echo Times (Undergrad classes were top priority, Echo Times work was to build resume.)

Fall 05-on
: CSUN classes #1 priority, and I'm back to odd jobs.
