Job on a stick: Berry picker

Name: Diana Kovalevich

Age: 15

Hometown: Marysville

High School: Marysville-Pilchuck

Occupation: Berry picker

Pros: The good thing about this job is it gives a teenager an opportunity to get some money over the summer. You get a good dose of sun, and have fun with people your age. It's not a hard job for a teenager.

Cons: The not-so-good thing about this job is waking up early. Summer, for a teenager, is a time to sleep in. The strawberry fights get you all red, sticky and cranky.



Summertime and the living ain't easy. Herald photographer Kevin Nortz captures the essence of summer jobs in "Job on a Stick," a 12-part series running every Thursday through the summer in Good Life. Today, Diana Kovalevich of Marysville. Tell us about your worst -- or best -- summer job, online at www.heraldnet.com/jobonastick.
