Im only 14, and I just got a job at the local Car Wash to get some extra
cash. I thought it would be a great job, getting paid $5.15 and hour to
dry off
cars as they come through the carwash. And that is how they started me
out. Then
on my third day at work, they introduced me to garbage duty, which is
emptying 4
garbage cans into a dumpster which is a half mile away from the car wash.
Every
time I do this job, I get attacked by the numerous bees and wasps swarming
around the dumpster, which is always fun. I was then taught how to clean out
the drains. I think the best way to describe this task is to just stick your
head up a cow's rearend and inhale deeply. Other perks of the job include
waxing
huge vans in 95 degree weather, emptying vacuum bins which are filled
with wet
cigarette butts, used tissues and other special prizes, getting my skin
burnt by
the car shampooing machine, and many other interesting things. I'm not
sure if
it's even legal for a kid my age to do this kind of work. The boss has me
work
9 and a half hour days, which I know is definitely not legal at my age. And
that's why my job sucks.
