Thread: Your first job

  1. #1

    Default Your first job

    What was your first job. At 15 I started to work with my mother's boyfriend at a car lot, I would clean the inside and outside of cars. Every once in a while we would have to clean every freakin car in the lot, I was so tired man and he kept on saying today you're gonna make over a hundred dollars, but when he payed me he only gave me $50 dollars that lying bastard for cleaning 12 cars straight, the first day I worked for him he payed me 25 dollars for cleanng 3 cars, but $50 for 12 that's inhumane man, I wanted to quit, but my momma made me keep on working there.

    Hey, it's the internet - without guilt I can pretend to be something I'm not. Or wasn't, whatever.

    What do you have to say for yourself?

    I haven't had a job yet, I'm too lazy. Summer is meant for relaxing.
    If work experience counts though, it was in a library that sorted out the books sent out to schools (it wasn't public, so I never saw anyone). Boring and lonely.

    My first "legal" job was when I was 16 and worked at a local hardware store, for this 30-something-year-old wussy momma's boy and his father and bitch mother. He fired me when he learned I was quitting, what a bugger. But before that, I had a "job" tossing around bales of hay, stacking, etc. for this guy who runs a buffalo farm. $6 an hour cash wasn't bad for a 15-year-old, I suppose, especially when I got all the time I could.

    I plan on applying to the new Best Buy coming in nearby as soon as I get off my lazy rear and get my license. I've always loved that store and I'd very much enjoy working there.

    when I was 14 I cleaned out animal poop in a vets

    then my first "real" job was in a telesales office. I was a cold caller I was the one that called people and annoyed them till they bought a sodding kichen. It was the best job ive ever had. I ahd the most fun there.

    I worked as a clerk at Longs and was the best person to ever work there. There literally was a shrine in my honor.

    My first 'job' I guess was when I monitored pre-school students on the bus...walked them where they needed to be, etc. You only get paid for it if your 16. heh

    I quit after the first semester because one of the little kids I had to watch was always afraid of everything (including me) and cried and threw up alot.
    And there was another one that I had to keep away from other boys because he would try to...lick them...
    And then there was one that always called me mommy

    That was such a traumatizing experience. And I didnt just quit...I stopped riding that bus all together.

    Yep I remember it Nick. Just two years ago I realized when my Mom had her car detailed, it was Nick cleaning it, it's funny how you can remember little things and sometimes forget big ones. Anyway, my first job was at a cookie shop. I was 16, I loved that shop and I got dicounts off of cookies, oh how so many and they ere hot and fresh too.
