@Peter_pbn​ ,

Thanks. The images you found for these summer jobs are much better than the ones I found.

By the way, I worked as a parking lot attendant during two sessions of the Minnesota State Fair (1973 and 1974).

I found a lemonade stand.

Are there people who just sell sunscreen?

I also thought of a beach vendor like this one (but there are already a few vendors on the list)

@ACT_1​ 

Robert De Niro worked fifteen hour days for a month
driving cabs as preparation for this role

🤣 But, this is ridiculous. If an actor needs to work 15 hours per day to become a good taxi driver, simply hire a real taxi driver. Many directors have worked with non-professional actors before with great success. And frankly, once you know how to drive a car, you have all the requirements to become a taxi driver. These actors did that for the gimmick, for the advertisement campaign, or for fun, but I do not believe that it brings anything to their art.
