Lifeguarding

I work as a lifeguard, and as such I work with many small children, about half of which either don’t speak English, or act like they don’t so they can break the rules.

I enjoy my job, as it is relatively easy, you watch the pool, control the kids, make sure no one gets hurt… All while getting a tan, at least theoretically (I’m pretty much permanently white). But by far the worst part of the job is trying to keep the kids and parents in line during safety breaks, or any other form of clearing the pool. And the slide… kids will not listen to you on the slide in any way shape or form. But the pay isn’t bad, and the hours are flexible so its a good summer job, and it helps fund my addiction to games and Warhammer.
