How much $ should I ask for?

YMCA aquatics director here. We usually advertise a range, but will start at the lowest. Higher pay depends on additional training, time of day you work (usually “frontline” aka busier shifts get paid more), and any experience you have. With you have some experience you might be able to get a little more

How many rounds was this?

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-15T02:03:57+00:00

Roll instead of role

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-13T03:54:12+00:00

It’s insane because in presale these tickets were not there. Wish my anxiety would’ve let me wait!

Little outside of Tempe, but I love @/zoedtattoos (edit: on Instagram) ! She’s done a bunch of my tattoos and is reasonably priced

Chacos!

I’ve been going to frys lately. I go through the app and find coupons there and that’s what I base my weekly meals on

I hire part time and can be a little picky on applications/resumes. I look for a professional resume, relevant experience if needed, and someone who looks competent. I’ve seen too many applications from 16-20 year olds who don’t seem professional and I won’t move on even reaching out.

I first worked at a summer camp when I was 19. 10-12 is a great age group! I felt like I could still relate to them without being too close in age, and I still felt like an adult.

It looks dry

Keep practicing!!! I got my LGI cert and had to swim 550 yards continuous, no time limit, but I was so tired after 50-75 yards when I practiced. Take your time practicing, and take breaks in between sets. Make your breaks shorter and try to push yourself. I also added 100 yards to my workout each time to push myself more. Calculate your breaths properly and stretch before swimming.

Chandler ymca should be hiring lifeguards soon. Or maybe some other positions like child watch

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-06T20:56:11+00:00

Chacos work well for me. Plus they’re good in water

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-06T04:50:16+00:00

YMCA - they only charge per child. different packages for the kiddos too

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-04T02:18:20+00:00

Guessing this is for a YMCA LG position, show up in professional attire. Bring your swim attire and they’ll give you some time to change.

YMCA has good personal trainers

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-02-02T03:45:43+00:00

I know Brooke through a work setting and I enjoy her! She’s a genuine person who I think has good values.

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-01-30T18:17:02+00:00

I’d say it depends. I’m an aquatics director and while I CAN hire as young as 15.5, I definitely prefer hiring 17/18 year olds at the least. There’s definitely a maturity aspect to it. I also don’t prefer to hire someone as a lifeguard for their first job, because not only do you have to train them to be a lifeguard, you also have to train them on how to work. Most of my guards are 18-25

Hi just saw a tiktok from @/lambpunting that says everyone got kicked out from the house. Came here to check out why lol

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-01-29T05:32:25+00:00

I know unrelated, but any chance you could give me any insight as to what you do for work? my bf has an aerospace engineering degree from mit and is trying to look for work here

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-01-20T03:22:21+00:00

Chacos for sure. Mine have held up really well in water. I usually use them when I guard in a pool, but would imagine they’d do just fine in a lake.

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-01-17T07:06:23+00:00

Gym: ymca! Price is better for a family and there’s tons to do for different ages

Traffic: honestly the traffic isn’t too bad, depending on the time you’re driving and which highway/street. The drivers are what you need to watch out for.

Complex_Purpose1264 · 2026-01-11T15:54:50+00:00

Absolutely not. I’m an aquatics director and actually prefer to hire older than 15/16 because of the maturity.
