Usually, bussers get minimum wage (I'm not sure what minimum wage is nowadays.) and then, depending on where you end up working, sometimes they waitresses tip out the bussers a certain percentage.

I think that putting down babysitting would be a great idea on former job experience. Babysitting probably highlighted your interpersonal skills, patience, and time management, all of which could come in handy while working in any kind of service job such as a waitress or a busser. I'm not a professional resume maker or anything, but I think there would be a separate section for volunteer work that wouldn't qualify as work experience as you didn't do it for compensation. But I'm not sure about that.

Good luck!

Your young so exspect minimum wage unless it's a higher class resturant.

I worked at a pet store for a while and cleaned fish tanks, i got moved to helping customers and I still didn't get a raise even after I asked. But, if you do a good job and impress your boss then who knows!
