Lifeguarding is a popular summer job. What did you do? (May 27, 2013) Credit: Elizabeth Daza

Summer jobs can be great ... or awful. 

We all had them.  Did you scoop ice cream? Work as a camp counselor for a dozen whiny kids? Lifeguard? Or clean bathrooms at the town pool?

Whatever you did, you took something away from the job.  Did you earn good money? Gain valuable experience? Learn discipline? Or decide it was something you NEVER wanted to do again? 

Please vote and tell us about your first summer job in a comment.  Results and a selection of comments will appear in next Sunday's paper.
