Default Hot Computer Jobs for Teens

Well, it's that time again for me to find a job, although I really don't wanna get some grocery store job like I had last summer. This summer I much rather use my knowledge and experience in computers and programming (mySql/php/c++) to get good paying job. Even just plain computer maintenence would be nice. But even better, a job as a web designer

Anyway, I'm not pro at programming but I learn fast from actually being assigned a real task to work on, and am a very efficient and hard worker (my Cross Country coach can vouch on that one ^_^). I'm 16, incase anybody was wondering, and I just need some good pointers on where to find good computer jobs, or maybe places to look (..or even better, hook me up! ). In my Ap Computer Science class this school year there was this real guy named Alex who is 17 and worked in some easy business of computers. Although he only worked for about 4 hours aday he was making, quoted by him, $17 an hour. That kind of money would help me out tons, and he's about the same level as me in programming and computer knowledge in networking and hardware. I checked up on the guy's business one day that he worked at, on a day he was working, and nonetheless I saw his cheap mazda Mazda 626 in the parking lot.

So do any of you fellow webmasters know of a good way for a 16 year old (and this goes for anybody else here too looking for computer job rather than the usual) to get a good job in the computer industry. As stated, I rather use my skill in what I like and excel in than working at another crummy place making $6.75/h.


PS: Anybody need a webmaster?
