less greasy fast food places

i'm 14 but i'll be turning 15 in the late summer and i need a job!

can anyone think of anymore jobs at places like mmm muffins, orange julius or jugo juice. fast food (kinda) but it's not greasy like mcdonalds of kfc.

also if you know places like that are hiring in burnaby area, please let me know!

has anyone worked at places like that before, how was it?

Subways, always hiring! I think Orange Julius, or Dairy Queen would be your best bet!:)

Re: less greasy fast food places

cobs sounds fun to work at.

are the hours flexible? i'm taking a summer course in the morning so i can only work afternoon 1pm-ish to closing/evening.

Orange Julius is nice... I think they are hiring at a lot of the locations right now. They just raised the starting wage from $8.25 to $8.50. It might be VERY busy at times, but doesn't seem to be too bad.

I used to work at Vanelli's pizza in metro, and we always exchange pizza for ice creams =] (both of the store is under speedi gourmet)

Re: less greasy fast food places

i think i might try cobs bread because it's close to my house and they hire 14/15 years old.

kinky, do you remember what interview questions they asked? how was it? i'm nervous, haha.

how's jugo juice, anyone worked there before? my friend is interested (:
