@RebelRaven was it part of your job to fetch the videos out of the drop off bin and check if they were "be kind....rewind", and if they weren't you'd phone the customers back and tear a strip off them? 🤭
RebelRaven · 51-55, F
@beermeplease Yes, sort of, we would just have to rewind them. 🙄

@CheshireHatter I worked at a corner store restaurant when I was 15, I would pull the gut bag out of the chickens, sprinkle the seasoning on them, stab then onto the rotisserie bars cause I think the machine fit 9 chickens and turn it on.
I'm not sure what else I did there. I think I cleaned but I really don't remember. I can only remember the rotisserie. And when I was in 11th grade I ended up getting a job as a dishwasher at a different, family owned restaurant, worked there for a year making $4.25, got a $0.10 raise so was at $4.35 when I left.

@twiigss I never experienced that, sounds interesting though

@CheshireHatter yeah the restaurant I was a dishwasher at was a diner and owned by a Greek family, but they didn't do gyros, they just did your typical diner menu.
There's a flat top behind the bar you can sit at, then in the kitchen more stoves, walk-in, bathroom, etc.

It was doing landscaping.....was actually a pretty fun job because the other guys were kind of crazy. Sure some weeks we would end up working 70+ hours but the overtime hitting that paycheck was nice. It was completely dirt wages but at age 15 I felt rich.

That I was paid for versus being my contribution to the family farming? Probably cutting apricots for my uncle, or picking cotton for the neighboring farm.
If you mean going out and landing a job on my own, it would be convincing the weekly newspaper to hire me to write about high schools sports for 10 cents a column inch when I was 14. Which morphed into a full-time writing/editing job during summers.
If you mean a real, post-college (and its multitude of part-time jobs), full-time job, it would have been working for the post office. Having lost my student deferment and being classified 1A in the military draft, I was essentially unemployable by most companies. As my uncle told me, "The Post Office has to go solely by your score on the Civil Service exam, and I assume you, with your high falutin' University degree should be able to score OK on it." I did that for a couple of years until my draft number came up and I went in the Army.
Post-Army, my first real, career-path job was as editor of employee and member publications for a non-profit prepaid health care system, which actually turned out to be the beginning of a 40 year career with them in PR.

Good luck!
