Probably nothing maybe an entry level job like file clerk or receptionist. If you write a resume like you wrote your question you might want to reconsider office work.

Try and get an administration office job, but don't expect it to be highly paid. Once you get experience you will be able to gradually get more money with each job. It's hard to try and advise you what to do to get the specific job you want as you don't say what area the job you want to go into, but generally speaking, Banking/Professional services pay more for the same job when it is in the public sector (i.e. council/hospitals/government etc). Doing a business certificate may help you have the edge over some of the candidates as it may help you get an interview and give you something to talk about, however the best way is to get some solid experience under your belt. Maybe try calling the HR department of some companies you want to work for and saying that you want to do a specific job at their company. Ask them what they would look for in candidates who apply for this role and take the advice. Also, it can't help doing some I.T skills courses i.e. advanced excel - in an office people who have excellent IT skills may have the edge. Even if you decide not to take a course, brush up on them using the net in your spare time and make sure you emphasise this on ya CV. Also try adding on your CV some of the core skills you have learnt at school - i.e. presentation skills, communication, writing etc.
Good luck.

You might make minimum wage, or you might make $10 or $12 an hour depending on innumerable factors.
Most businesses look for stable employees. Students are not ideal.
Since you don't know how to punctuate a sentence, or even capitalize words like I, I think you should try for some form of sales position.
BTW, "pay good" should be "pay well". Did you attend school in California?
Look in Craigslist.com for your metropolitan area.

Don't expect high pay when you lack experience. You have to pay your dues like everyone else and EARN IT!
