Hi Yall what was your first job?
My working life started at age 11 at Beckmans furrier laying deer and cow hides in a salt pack. Very nasty job but I topped out in the sixth grade at 5'10' and 165 lbs and short for my family at least on dads side. My second job was at meat packing plant. The kill line , guts , and the shit truck my first full time job. Did your first job involve getting bathed head to toe in fresh cow blood just a newbe in the kill line. So how was your first job? I can still to this day i can gut anything I kill and skin it so a taxidermest can mount it.

My first job was picking potatos around the same age. On a different note I worked at a leather tannery for more years than I care to admit and working salting hides is a job for a strong man, you must have been one rugged 11 year old. And the blood thing LOL I wish I would have seen that.

my first job was at a radio station.... long hours, shitty pay, but lots of fun

I was a bingo caller in a drug ridden amusement arcade when I was 18, 19 after I finished college, i was good 2, even got scouted by some of the UK`s major gaming establishments but gave it all up 2 work 4 a security firm (more money) but I didn`t last long there, 1 of the worse decisions I ever made.

My first job was in the british army, i joined straight from school. My wifes first job was in what we call a POT bank.

Data entry.

Enough said.

My first job at age 15 was at a gas(petrol) station.Great job because of the people I worked with.That was my first job if you don't count selling weed,that is.

My first job was at age 11-12 in Yokosuka Naval Base Japan (my family lived there for a few yaers) i was a Paperboy. Not just any paperboy tho, i would go to the docked ships at the base and sell papers to the sailors on-board.

After we got back to the states, my nexxt job was a couple years later as a dishwasher in a local restaraunt...i hated it !!! Worked in restaraunts/kitchens til i was out of school, and never will again!!!!

Cutting apricots in Cupertino, CA. Then we lay them out on a rack for drying.

Ask some in Cupertino now about fruit, they're gonna say Apple. If you live somewhere where things don't change much, you have no idea.

on a farm at 11 & 12 then lied about my age and worked as labor on construction at 13 then for a moving company at 14 then back to construction till 16..........back in those days nobody really background checked anything in NC and being a small giant helped

Yes fatguy It was funny they told me where to stand then cut, spray you get the picture.

My first paying job was great. Of course I did alot of volunteer work like candy striping and such, but because I had a relatvie in the polital circle, I used to campaign for him at 14. From that job I got offered a job to collect signatures on petitions. I got 25 cents a signature and got my best friend involved. they were so impressed with the two of us they offered us team captain jobs to recruit from the high school more people to help collect signatures. I got a dime for all the signatures they got. Needless to say, we jammed. We made a fortune for that age. and all we did was get stoned and go to all these different places to collect signatures.. sigh was a great time.

]my first job was at rite wood eggs I was 12 I had to move the chickens in and out of the cages. the coups were 500 yards and there are four rows of cages one on top of the other five grow chickens in each cage. They were handed up through a hole in the floor from a truck parked underneath ( this is where the crap goes when there is no truck.putting them in was the easy part removing the old ones is hard because of the smell from the 500 yard 7 foot tall mountain of crap. I can not remember how many rows they had in each shed some thing like 8
