What Was Your 1st Job

l delivered leaflets door-to-door on my bike when I was 11-12. It wasn't long until I figured out that you got paid the same whether you delivered the whole stack diligently (taking many tiring hours), or dumped them all in a recycling bank. Turned out they checked up occasionally, and after a while I was summarily excluded from the leafleting game. I must have recycled tens of thousands of leaflets over the course of several months.

First real shift job was washing up in a restaurant when I was 14. Extremely boring, monotonous work. But they notice very quickly if you throw your workload into recycling dumps.

My first job was waitressing in the restraunt of a golf course, was wicked money considering my age, but i really hated it, full of snobby rich people and pervy old men who obviously had no idea how young i was, but on the upside i got trained in silver service and learnt how to make all those pretty shapes out of napkins :)

I swear everyone has done telesales before lol, ive worked at Anglian twice, was such a sh*t job, sooo boring, all the people i worked there with were idiots aswell, spent the whole shift usually skinning up and counting out their change to see how many happy hippos they could buy from the co-op next door <_<

Lol i take it you have aswell then

Slightly off topic but i just remembered this and it make me laugh

After a few days working there i made my first lead and it was a really good one, like 10 windows, 2 doors and all the trimmings, i was well excited, a few days later after my boss made the callback i went into work only for him to tell me that i had infact been speaking to a guy from Zenith who was winding me up :( i was crushed lol

I bet I've had the worst job in here still (haven't had someone in real life say they've had worse yet still)

what was it?

imagine a car park outside a big M&S in some random Hertfordshire town

imagine a shiny fluorescent jacket

imagine a long thick bamboo looking stick with a sign at the top saying "Free Parking Space"

imagine a 8 hour shift of doing nothing but walking from open parking space to open parking space

what kills it is when I got the offer it was my bredrin asking me on the phone "you wanna come work at Marks and Spencer for a day?"

not even sure why such a job exists
