    I worked at a two-screen movie theatre in my town from 15-18. I attribute that job to at LEAST 10 lbs thanks to all the free theatre popcorn, pop & candy. It was a great job for high school though. Got paid to do homework, watch movies and chill out while the movie was playing.

    Worked for Pacific Bell as an operator in the San Fernando Valley. Really loved it.:smile: Got paid well, worked 4 hours after school. The days with cord boards and answering lights on the board with the saying "Operator may I help you?' Stayed with Bell in different departments for quite awhile.:flowerforyou:

    I have had one job - a social worker but in various statutory settings. I did not work during school or university years, and i would have been hopeless working in a shop, restaurant etc. I would however be an excellent cleaner and often think of this job as a nice change.

    My first job was a cleaner for a real estate company on Saturday mornings when the other staff weren't there. The girl who had done the job before me was the daughter of one of the real estate agents, and she left because she was moving away for University, but then changed her mind and asked for her job back, so they fired me for no reason after four weeks so they could hire her back. They didn't even employ me officially either, they paid me each week in cash so they wouldn't have to go through the paperwork or pay tax. So when they fired me, I couldn't really do much about it. I was 16 then, so I wasn't too bothered.
