hi this is a very obscure question and probably wont be answered but its worth a try....
well basically im 15 and have just applied for my first part time job as a waitress. Its in a restaurant in a golf club and not the most expensive place ever, and i will probably only be working three nights a week at most. I know that because im only 15 im under the age for minimum wage, but can anyone take a guess at how much roughly i would get paid? Its ok if you dont know, i just want a guess if you have been in a similar position or something...

The likelihood is you'll get something around, but probably below, the minimum wage offered to 16s, currently £3.57 an hour. However, because of your age you won't have to pay National Insurance, and you are unlikely to earn enough to meet the threshold for paying Income Tax.
However, your employer should bear in mind there are strict rules around employing people under the age of 16:

Hope this helps...
