If you’re looking for a summer job - here's what some of them pay...


Looking to make some extra summer cash? 

Here are some options, by the hour:

• Bartender: The pay averages $9 an hour, plus tips – but the late-night and weekend hours can be rough.

• Landscaper: At $11.41 an hour, it’s a good option if you like driving machinery and rearranging stuff.

• Customer Service Rep: You’ll need patience and a good phone demeanor but it pays pretty well at $14.65 an hour.

• Golf Caddy: The average pay on the links starts at $35 a bag, plus tips.

• Lifeguard: Beginners can make around $12 an hour, or more at private beaches and clubs.

• Tour Guide: If you’ve got a point of interest nearby, it’s a good option. Beginners make around $10 to $15 but that pay can go up once you’re really in the know.

• Tutor: Students in summer school might need your help and their parents might be willing to pay anywhere from $10 to $80 an hour depending on your area of expertise.

• Fireworks Crew: If you like to blow stuff up, you might enjoy this seasonal gig. Pay varies from volunteer beginner positions to $2,300 for crew managers during the first half of July.
