Your 1st Job

My first job was at a grocery store when I was 14. Oh the memories. It was right by my high school so all of the cashiers were HS students.

My first job - working in my parent's dental office. At 7 years old. Still work there...

My first job with taxes taken out - Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom. I worked in the merchandise dept. It was funny seeing the different many ways folks would try to steal a stuffed Tweety bird. I worked with them starting when I was 16 y/o, I worked there for 3 years.

My first job (@ 16) I was a waitress for two weeks. I couldn't STAND it so I quit and didn't work again until a few months before I graduated from high school (@ JC Penney).

First job was at 15. It was a summer program and I did secretarial work. I didn't care that taxes were being taken out since I had some money in my pocket. LOL.

First job was as a cashier at Kissena Farms, a produce supermarket. I was seventeen, and loved every minute of it. We didn't even have scanners on the registers we had to type evey item in....imagine that.....oh the memories.

First time getting paid....

I was a drug dealer....

Naw I'm just kidding.

My first job came when I was 15 (a week before my 16th b-day) and I worked at a shirt factory. I was laid off 2 weeks later.

I hated that place because there was a old woman there who yelled at me all the time.

My first job was in a grocery store in this high end apartment complex. Like Craig from Friday I was fired over the phone on my day off. The sister store to the one I worked at caught fire so it was last one hired, first one fired to accomodate those workers.
