What was your first job?

SweetMae · 70-79, F
First real job - Computer programmer
FrozenWasteland · 61-69, M
@SweetMae Kind of came in handy when you accidentally dropped a card deck.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@FrozenWasteland It was an amazing job for a 17 year old.
FrozenWasteland · 61-69, M
@SweetMae It would be. I didn't get a job that had much to do with computers until I was around 20, doing maintenance on the university registration and scheduling software. In COBOL. Even so, it was a great job. Sure beat sweeping floors.

@SW-User sounds awesome! Great that you can probably get tips any time you can stand to listen to him lol

@Viper I just do the admin work and general dogs body - lots of emails, writing programmes up and sorting scheduling …it’s all very boring
Viper · M
@SW-User Trust me I know about boring jobs lol
Working on the ranch. My Da was a cattle rancher. If you mean outside the family, then it was commercial modeling (catalogs.)
@Viper My girl turns mine upside down. She’s an angel. My angel.

@DarkHeaven I'm very glad you have an angel in your life, you deserve it!

An outdoor sports store renting out kayaks to people. I worked there off and on for like 6 years in the shops and as a guide once I was old enough.
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@SwampFlower I understand that! 😂
SwampFlower · 31-35, F
@SweetMae I have been tempted in the past to get a PT position at any outfitters just bc I miss the culture so much 🥺
SweetMae · 70-79, F
@SwampFlower Maybe some day. 🤗
I worked in a fish and chip shop during the day. And I cleaned hotel rooms in the evening. Doesn’t sound flashy but I made more money than my friends did and spent more time in nightclubs
CastorTroy · 31-35, M
@SirenCalledLuce Ah, fish n' chips!

@DarkHeaven HaHa - I would be happy to teach you but it’s so much easier to learn by physically being in the same place😂😂. There are several good chopstick lessons on YouTube 🙂🐼🥢
@Dlrannie Maybe I want you to be in the same place. 😏

First job to be formally hired?..14 years old working for the hometown sanitation dept. loading the trash truck during the summer months while out of school...$1.65/hour.

At the time considered it to be the greatest job ever.
@summersong the hardest was my first year of college. I was trying to do college full time, model part time (for money, and my band full time (and it wasn’t paying much of anything yet.) I know how to work hard from the ranch but this was too much. I didn’t even have time to sleep really and like zero off time for social life, I was dying and something had to give, so I quit college after the first year and perused music and modeling more full time with the extra time that I now had.
CastorTroy · 31-35, M
@DarkHeaven Phew. I would say you have.
@CastorTroy I’ve always been kind of lucky to just do what I want, until recently when my life sort of fell apart.
SweetMae · 70-79, F

Synyster · 51-55, M
@SweetMae Yeah, when I had the time. lol

Shipping and receiving muscle, err I mean clerk assistant.

Basically unpacked the items coming into the store, counted them and basic quality check, and make sure it matched the invoice.

If we accepted them (did like 99% of the time), then prepared them to be sold, depending on what the item was.
