Worked at a chinese takeaway for about 2 years, 1 sometimes 2 nights a week, used to make a fortune off all the drunk RAF trainees (I think we called them sprogs) that used to come in and give me £5 for a bag of £1.20 chips and told me to keep the change, good times.

My first job was delivering the Bay Ridge reporter. I worked for 5 days collecting subscription money and one day delivering. I made something like three dollars so I quit after one week. I don't think this counts.

My second job lasted four weeks. I two days a week as a dishwasher and then on the third week helping to bus tables at a reception hall. The waiter and waitress beat me out of a sweet tip I got for running an extra bottle of whiskey out, so I quit. I don't think this counts either.

I consider my next job my first job, a stock boy at Health Foods store in downtown Brooklyn. I was 16 it was my first 'on the books' job and I worked there through high school.
