Highest Paying Casual Job for 17y/o (1 Viewer)

[ipab]

Hey guys as stated above.

Currently working at Kmart making about $12/h

Just wondering if there are any better paying jobs??

Thanks

I think Maccas pays more, iirc.

+1 I'm pretty sure my friend (17 - working casual) earns more than 12.

When I was 17 (2005) the paying rate for me at Maccas was $10.80.

From 2010, so not that long ago

Don't Maccas pay rates differ from various locations though? Having a flashback, but I'm probably thinking of something else.

That was what I was on for about 6 months, but then again I was full time so meh. I'd suggest pharmacy, but my boss just pays like $3 above the standard rate. So

Yeh my friends who work at maccas get about 11.5o an hour that are 17.
But i've heard that pharmacies pay alright so i might apply there.

I work at a tutoring centre (Not 17 yet, but turning 17 this year) and I get paid $40 for 3 hours, but I only work 3 hours in a week anyway. Good luck to you all applying for jobs! I've heard pizza hut/dominos pays alright, better than hungry jacks, based from classmates in my grade

$40 for three hours? That's... pretty paltry. Like, really, really paltry.

 

[muhahahahahaha]

When I was 17, I was working at a tutoring centre. Pay was $30 p/hr. Now I get $40 p/h there (I'm 18 now)
Retail pay is pretty shit to be honest. A girl that works with me in my other job gets paid $12 p/h. I get three dollars more than her or something like that. To OP, retail pays more on weekends. Work in Sundays, the pay is pretty decent. That's what I do lol.

I didn't know you worked at a tutoring centre. What did you tutor?

 

[muhahahahahaha]

English and maths. Primary to yr 9 high school. Had a few classes. Was good fun.

rubbing your pay into little kids

 

[boris]

nah but even when i was their age
would not get out of bed for less than $15p/h

 

[muhahahahahaha]

True that. $15 p/h is minimum pay. And don't forget, you get taxed too.
