What was your first job?

[Iron Lightning]

Selling custom-made hemp necklaces. I didn't do that one for long.

 

[Lombax302]

first legit job for me was and still is lifeguard

 

[gostchiken]

I was an intern at a National Park. I observed wildlife for the park rangers, maintained trails, and even assisted with tours for the public.

 

[Undercover]

15 years old, working at a "Harvey's" burger joint. The manager (A high School dropout with a chip on his shoulder) pissed me off one too many times so right in the middle of a busy lunch I finally snapped and told him to go fuck himself & walked out the door to the cheers of both staff members and customers alike. Oh, and before I left I threw the retarded hat they made us wear into the fryer. Who knew that polyester liquified in 400 degree cooking oil?

I quit right around the same time a local waterpark was looking for lifeguards, so I was hired THAT DAY and started as a "slide attendant", and once I turned 16 I got my lifeguard certification & made more than twice as much money than I did at that grease pit plus hey, I was a freakin' LIFEGUARD.

Best. Summer. Ever.

 

[Chrono212]

First real (read: paid) job is the one I'm currently in which is as a sailing instructor.
Before that I've done various 'voluntary' positions.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

I guess you could say lawn mower. Work something like four hours a week for around $30 a week.

Looking for a job, but life is good so far.

 

[Blemontea]

Scooping up the poop of horses twice a day, 7 days a week, and after every 2 weeks taking a drive to the dump and dumping it into the pile. Thank god i had my gamecube for downtime becuase my boss hated me.

 

[Nivag the Owl]

I'm a guitar, bass and drums tutor. I teach both privately and for a school. Gonna be a life-saver when I'm at uni. Getting another decent Saturday job in these times would be rough.

 

[punkrocker27]

landscaping

 

[Ham_authority95]

My first(and current) job is working at my dads manufacturing shop.

Making fan cages, pressure washing, organizing parts etc etc...

Its pretty mundane, but the pay is good and it gets me a mighty fine workout.

 

[Count Igor]

Helped out in a Theater for measly money. But mainly it was for the experience.

 

[Redlin5_v1legacy]

Pizza Hut. I hate the people there, I love the money I make.

 

[esperandote]

First and current, programmer.

balls deep... Should I be jealous?

Well, where I work there's a relaxed enviroment most of the time, I get to learn and slack off sometimes though the pay is kinda low. Programmers have the great advantage that they can start their own bussines with just a computer, a client and brains (internet connection very desirable).

[IckleMissMayhem]

Sailing Instructor from when I was 16. Also did bar work in local sailing clubs from the age of 14, but never on a regular basis.

 

[Radeonx]

I set up birthday parties at a local rec center. It was pretty nice. Easy job, worked with friends, and got quite a few nice tips.

 

[TheSkaAssassin]

Lifeguarding at a local pool, and I've been doing it going on four years now. You'll never find an easier job that makes so much money.

 

[Stryc9]

Trap-setter at a gun club. My job was to put the clay targets on the machine that launches them, one at a time. While a bunch of old people with shotguns tried to hit them. Oh, and I had not notice of when the guy with the button was going press it to launch the next target.

Overall it wasn't a bad job though, once a month for a few hours, I got free lunch of hotdogs, soda and pie, and I got to shoot one round (25 targets) for free.
