svjiminfxv Posted March 12, 2024 Posted March 12, 2024 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, 2024 Posted March 12, 2024 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, 2024 Posted March 14, 2024 If I remember correctly, I was working as a salesperson for a mobile provider. It was a summer job but it paid pretty decently.
Debashis Posted March 16, 2024 Posted March 16, 2024 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.
The Blackangel Posted March 19, 2024 Posted March 19, 2024 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.
Heatman Posted March 31, 2024 Posted March 31, 2024 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.

I can't imagine running into someone like me lol.
Ravenfreak Posted April 2, 2024 Posted April 2, 2024 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.
