Poll: First Job?
go!
[stolen from the bump boards, cause our board could use a pick me up]
Re: Poll: First Job?
First job was data entry at my mom's mortgage company during the summer.
My first kinda full time job was CRAPTASTIC (well it was part time but it was year round) I worked at AMC Theatres at the block. I quit when they wouldn't give me Christmas off. LOL
haha, one of H's first jobs was some men's store at the mall. He quit when he requested a day off for prom and his manager told him he had to pick his priorities in life. lol
Dude at 16/17 prom IS a priority. LOL
SAT prep instructor
You would... <snort>
Why doesn't this surprise me?
My first job was at Penguin's frozen yogurt/espresso shop. One my first day a lady yelled at me for allegedly shorting her of sprinkles on her cone. I quickly learned that food service was not an industry I'd ever want to go into.
Why am I not at all surprised by this?
I worked in a swimwear store in HB.
mine was burger king - way back when the uniforms looked like this:
hawt.
That was my first job too! I couldn't take it. I quit after 2 weeks.
In 7th grade I started teaching dance classes (adult tap and 3-4 year olds ballet/tap combo) at one of the dance studios where I took ballet.
Looking back, I cannot believe how young I was (12!) but of course at the time I felt sooooo adult. heh
ha! I think the only reason I stayed there for 2 YEARS (man, what was I thinking?!) was because my brother said that I wouldnt last 2 weeks. I guess I proved him wrong. haha
That's awesome!
My first job was as at a shave ice stand. It was an awesome job as I got to work with my best friend, flirt with the bag boys of the nearby supermarket, eat all the shave ice I wanted while working on my tan.
My blog
In high school my mother got me a job as a file clerk for a high end shoe manufacturer. No interviews or anything. When I didn't want to work there anymore I just stopped coming in. A couple years later they asked my mom if I wanted to be a sales rep. They must have been desperate. lol
I was good at it! And it was easy and paid well!
My kids went up as much as 250 points just on the verbal section. I was very proud of them.
After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!
