Lia wrote Hey guys I'm wondering what are the best jobs for an 18 year old in the UK the reason I say UK is because jobs vary around the world. I know the main ones such as McDonalds but I was wondering what other ones are good to earn some money.
Cheers.
(Btw I'm in college aswell)
You could work for a lawn cutting company when your not in school.
Try and get a job at a restaurant as a waitress that way you will be getting paid not only for your work but also tips.

What do you study at college? Find something that relates to?
Avoid fast food places, they're not worth it.
Other options;
Bar work
Restaurant
Cinema
Adventure Centre's/Activity Centres
Nursing homes
Local businesses (as mentioned by 'me').
It's all about your interests, preferences and location at the end of the day. Just avoid fast food places or low end places. With it approaching summer too, act quickly because University students are in the process of returning home so jobs will fill up quickly.

Part time at a supermarket would be good.
most places tend to favour the young so they can overwork and underpay you.

I've been working in a nursing home since I was 19, been the best choice as they're open 24/7 so have plenty of hours like evenings / weekends so worked we'll around college back then and I'm now on full time work (42 hours a week) before overtime!!

Retail for now bro, look for supermarket jobs ect. A lot of places need weekend workers which is good for you as you're still a student

I will always suggest the military when this question is asked.
People see 'Military' and think of going to war and fighting etc however this is a huge stereotype around it.
Within the Army, Navy and RAF there are hundreds of different job roles you can go for all of which after basic training start you on a MINIMUM of around 18k per year, this can quickly go up depending what route you go down.
I'm due to start basic training in July and after a year I'll be on 27k as an ICT Tech, I'll be 19 years old and on that much money - which is just insane to me.
Definitely take a look.
