svjiminfxv Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 What was your first job? Did you enjoy doing that job? My first job was a paper round with my older brother. I was 13 when I was doing this job to get a little bit of money for myself. I enjoyed this job as it was something to do early in the morning before school.

Kennysplash Posted March 12 Share Posted March 12 I was a manager at a game and sport shop. I just got out of high school, I showed my knowledge of the games and money management during the interview. I worked there for a year and six months, it was memorable.

killamch89 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 If I remember correctly, I was working as a salesperson for a mobile provider. It was a summer job but it paid pretty decently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debashis Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 My first job involved developing indoor small cell radios. I used to like it because it brought a lot of opportunities to learn with it. My current job is also related to a similar domain where I'm able to use the experience I gained in my first company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 My first paid job was at a flower farm. Moving the plants around and unloading them from trucks. I was 14 and it paid $50 per week. It wasn't a W2 kind of job. That one came when I was 16 and I got a job at Pizza Hut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heatman Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 If I remembered correctly, my first job was being a teacher in high school. I actually enjoyed the job but unfortunately, I wasn't paid well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't imagine running into someone like me lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenfreak Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 My first job was a cashier at a local grocery store. I hated it and I barely made minimum wage, I got paid every week too but I also was part time so that didn't help. Plus you have to join a union if you work at the local grocery chains, and they take out union fees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
