She may be only 15 years old, but Sasha Obama has already landed her first job. Barack and Michelle Obama's younger daughter has taken up a position as a waitress at a restaurant on Martha's Vineyard island.

The Boston Herald reports that the First Daughter has been seen bussing tables and working at the cash register at Nancy's, a local food joint. Making sure that the teenager is safe while allowing her to have her independence, a team of Secret Service officers have been dispatched outside and around the eaterie.

Nancy's restaurant, famed for it's delicious fish dishes, is a favorite hangout of the Obamas during their summer holidays to Martha's Vineyard. The family are said to be friends with the restaurant owner, Joe Moujabber, who set up Sasha with the summer job.

Sasha Obama, 15, is working as a waitress

It appears that the teenager may only be working shifts during the week, as she was also seen at Lollapolooza, a music festival in her hometown of Chicago, over the weekend with big sis Malia.

In fact, Malia caused a meltdown on Twitter after several videos of her dancing went viral. The 18-year-old, who was wearing a pink top and black cut-off shorts, looked like she was having a great time as she danced and sang along to Cashmere Cat with friends and fellow festival-goers.

The two sisters recently went to Lollapolooza music festival

It has already been a very busy summer for the two sisters. In early July the pair travelled to Liberia, Morocco and Spain as part of the Let Girls Learn international initiative, spearheaded by their mum Michelle.

As well as meeting heads of state and important officials, the twosome also got to enjoy some downtime during their trip. Whilst in Madrid, the girls were spotted heading out to shops like H&M and Zara along the Spanish capital's famous Gran Via.
