    When I was 14 i got a under the table job at a veterinary hospital cleaning at night. The worst part of the job was I had to run the furnace.

    At 14?! That is so grim

    I was the only competent cashier at Wal-Mart when I was 17.

    You know, that one who has 20 people in their line but still manages to get through them faster than the doesn't-care-to-be-there-at-all-45-year-old-lady-and-smells-funny-who-only-has-two-people-in-her-line?

    Yeah, I was the fast one.

    McDonald's. Started there part time at 15 and stayed 4 years. It was tons of fun because back then it was all kids working there. My brother was a manger. Lots of after hours parties on the roof :bigsmile:

    When I was 13, my cousin and I started a lawn service. We had a single push lawn mower and an edger. We also had a wagon that held a bucket, soap, and towels.
    We would walk around the neighborhood during the summer to see if people wanted us to mow the lawn or wash a car.
    A lawn was between $5.00 and $20.00 per cut (depending on the size.
    A car wash was $1.00 or, if it was a van (no mini vans back then) it was $2.00.
    But, we had a hook.
    If we mowed your lawn, we would wash your car for free.
    We would easily make $200.00 each every weekend during the summer.


    When I was 14, I got a "real" job at Burger King.

    1st real job after college was as a Psyhiatric/Addiction Assistant on a locked psychiatric facility at the hospital in my hometown. Worked various shifts between the adult psych, drug/alcohol rehab, and the ten/adolescent units. Every day was an adventure. lol

    Worked as a bagger at the Fort Lewis Commissary for 3 years in high school. Funnest job of my life lol.
    All I did was do my job, chilled out in the break room, talked, goofed around, and if you ask anyone there that worked the same year as me, they'd probably say all I did was flirt lol

    My first job was meat packing at a supermarket butcher. So boring, nobody but the butcher to talk to.
