Meh, I lucked out when I was 19 and stumbled into being a waiter...in Champaign/Normal I'd make $20-$25 on average and in Chicago I made sometimes $40 an hour...for mindless, easy, work that takes nothing but a hint of common sense to be good at.
The full time servers in Chicago at a chain restaurant were easily clearing $55K a year...plus, and I know this is shady, you only have to declare 10%...and often you'd easily clear that...so a lot of what you're making ends up being tax free.
