I sold greeting cards and gifts. Boring.
Mine was 16 working at Mr. Gatti's. I got fired 3 months later for punching a hispanic high school drop out that they were training as a shift manager. He told me to go back and cut his pizza. I told him to kiss my ass. He tried to push me (with a 500+ degree over a few feet behind me). He might have weighted about 120 or so, so I knocked his out right at the buffet table in front of all the customers.
The big boss brought me back to his office and said they had to let me go for doing that in public, so I stole a Coke on the way out the back door.

My first non-field job was as a busboy at Sambo's restaurant.
I start one simple thread and all breaks loose...![]()
selling hats at the mad hatter
Speaking of hats.... who here hates the fact that all the local hat shops never have any good Spurs hats in stock, but then they have 5 different colors of Yankees hats and Laker Hats and Cowboys hats!That's one of the reasons I order online instead of going to Lids.
ChickFilA--3 years later I'm still there.
i was a goodwill ambassador at fiesta texas.
i.e. i picked up trash.
Whataburger?
In that case, I'll have the #7 no onions and no tomatoes, add cheese and bacon with a Dr. Pepper. Thanks![]()
That's cool...it shows that you're a dedicated worker. It will look good on your resume that you've been at one place for that many years.
My first was at piece of auto shop one summer in hs for a while.
In ninth grade I started working in the school cafeteria washing pots and pans after lunch. I made $1.25 an hour, and all the leftovers I could handle. I loved Tuesdays, we had pizza... but the pizza pans were murder when you tried to scrape about 5 layers of burnt cheese off the pans.
Cleaning kotex boxes (bathrooms) and mopping floors for HEB.
I worked at Herbrucks Chicken Farm in Ionia, MI. I got the wonderful pleasure of cleaning chicken coups. I spent 8 hours a day cleaning hundreds of coups...shoveling piles of chicken , as well as collecting and tossing out chickens after falling dead from heart attacks. The absolute nastiest job ever.
I failed my drug test after two weeks, so I turned to a feed mill in Caledonia. There I got to mix and bag goat feed, chicken feed, and calf crackle....all this in the sub-zero winter weather. Thank God for Carhartz. To top it off, once a year we got to climb down into the silos and clean out the hundreds of pounds of mouldy feed. I've never had so many nosebleeds and bronchial infections in one year than the 365 days I spent at that hole.
10 years old.
Walked around while everyone was setting up, had a one of those big rubbermaid tubs on wheels, and wheeled it around and sold sodas and bottles of water out of.
100 degrees in Pomona California and Phoenix AZ.
50 cents for a can of coke.
80 for a bottle of water.
Hard work but after 4 years saved up enough for a down payment on a used soda vending machine, wich paid enough for my first car.
Why the does water cost more than coke?
uhm, cause the bottled water cost more to buy than the coke.
My first job was at an unlicensed child care fot the health club I now work front desk for. It was crazy!! I was only 16 at the time, takin care of kids from the age of 0-12. It was crazy, hectic, nerve-wrecking, loud, but a lot of fun. I had so much fun, and enjoyed my co-workers in the day care so much, that I still work 3 hours a week there, just for the fun of it (and cuz of some of my co-workers (a lot of single girls my age like to work with kids))
Will you be joining?

Mowing lawns. First taxable income, though, was a busser job in the Nati.
