...what other than painting can she do without power tools?
Is it cold in here?:
Get all up in people's face meats?

She does. A lot of entry level positions, aren't. Well, that is to say, it's still the same job, but they require experience.
Some industries have even gone beyond unpaid internships to gain experience, and require you pay for the privilege. All the while complaining about how hard it is to find people.

Well if you bend the power tool rule, she can get an airbrush, compressor and a respirator and up her game. Maybe appeal to her older friends (the cast) to help out with the cost.
BenRG:
Ah! So, we're about to see the start of a new character arc: Sam the Summer Intern! I'm looking forward to her interactions with Roko, Melon and maybe May. I have no doubt that this summer could end up lasting years IRL, like the summer at Smif Library, if Jeph enjoys the resulting character interactions enough!
I think that it will indeed be a horizon-broadening experience for Sam to work with fixed start and end times, rules about hygiene and equipment safety and less opportunity for 'free learning'. Sam will need to learn to work with people and actually please customers. I'm sure it will be a bit of a culture shock for her to be in a situation when she can't automatically rely on her undoubted cuteness and intelligence to her her own way and be able to slip away when she gets bored. It will be interesting to see if she's able to stick it out!

Stacking parts, inventory work, filling out and filing all the papers that Faye and Bubbles don't have time to fill out and making sure that customers in the queue have an unending supply of relaxing teas. Boring? Welcome to the real world, Miss Bean.
