[quote=Anonymous]Boys at our swim club who aren’t old enough to lifeguard or don’t work usually go to the gym there (open to ages 14 and up) and spend the afternoon lifting, posing, and listening to music, or they play basketball on the nearby court. Older people work out in the mornings so no one seems to mind their takeover. Then they usually rinse off and do goofy stuff off the diving board once dive practice wraps up. Girls are more likely to lifeguard, work at the snack bar, teach private lessons, help coach tennis, and work at day camps. Unfortunately I think that a lot of these jobs are seen as “girl’s jobs” and/or boys are given more free reign and downtime, because the ratio of girl:boy employees is easily 4:1. A lot of teens by me bank service hours over the summer if their school requires it. That would be a great way to stay busy and knock out a requirement.[/quote]
