    Started when I was 15, this was back when Meijer hired at 14 yrs old.

    DH's first job was Meijer, he worked there for about a month but you would think it was years by the number of stories he seems to have (nothing 'good' just boring stuff he brings up when we grocery shop).

  • I was a Gym Instructor for a Curves for Women. 

    I had to ride my bike because I was only 14 when I started.

  • I worked at a Mexican carry out place frying tortilla chips for a bout a week. I was 14 going on 15.  Then at 15 I went to work for my uncle being a receptionist at his Chiropractic office. I did that part time for about 5 years while I was in school.

  • I was a hospitality server at the Palace, Pine Knob & Meadowbrook. I set up backstage dressing rooms with the rider items the performer requested (they are all psycho weird about food/drinks). I also served the crew, staff & performers breakfast, lunch or dinner. It was pretty awesome!

    I started when I was 15 and worked there until I graduated high school.

  • I wasn't allowed to get a job until I was finished with high school... my family couldn't afford college and I needed a scholarship so my parents said school was my job.

    I was 17.5 and I worked at Family Video... it was so much fun.

  • What was your first  job? (not babysitting, one that gave you a paycheck)  I think it was at Old Navy.  I worked summers at the front desk of my parents dental practice and I'm not sure if I started doing that the summer before or after the old navy gig.

  • I worked at a little family owned Chinese restaurant.  I was 15.

  • When I was 13 and 14, I worked two summers as a Pre-School Teacher's Aide for the city Parks & Rec department.

    When I was 15, I worked at El Charro as a busser for a month (worst job ever, I could never work in a restaurant).

    Right after that I got hired at Sears in the linen department (this may have started my obsession with bedding and towels). I worked there for about a year.

    Then I got hired at BoRics as a Product Specialist/Receptionist and worked there through HS graduation (about 2 years). I usually only ever mention BoRics since it was my favorite HS job :)

  • I was 17. I worked at the Disney Store.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • I worked at Hudson's in the shirt and tie department.  I was 16 when I started and worked there for about 5 years.  A lot of the other people who worked there were around the same age, and even the ones who weren't always made work fun.  I kinda miss it.
