My first serious job was in a factory making Fisher Price Toys. I made 6.06 an hour in 1978. I got full benefits including dental and profit sharing twice a year as well as paid vacation, company pick nicks.
You sure can't find jobs like that anymore...

My very first job was cleaning offices for a truck help line company. I got paid 6.75 and worked M-W-F from 5:00 to 9:00. I could really able to set my own hours there so it was great! My 10th and 11th grade years. I really liked it! Most of the time I was alone and could be on my cell phone the whole night and not get in trouble! Plus I met a few guys that worked there and it was nice to talk to them about school and hear about their families. They even came to my graduation! It was a great job for me in high school

My first job when I graduated from school was actually a missionary thing. I was a volunteer in Benguet, Philippines for at least 10 months.
After that I went to the main campus and worked as editorial secretary. I was not receiving a salary but what we called stipend or monthly allowance.
I think it was one of the best years in my life.

I did job only once in my life till now. And it was a Medical rap job. I was working for a medicine company and i went to different dosctors and clinics and told them about our medicine.
This was very hard job and i think this is very bad job in my point of view. I did it only for 1 month and then resinged. I did not take my first month's salery.
Thanks

my first job was working as a marketing assistant in a major bank here in the Philippines. The experience was great and challenging but i only lasted for 4 months due to compensation. I am only receiving a minimum wage allowance so i want to explore more to search for higer payed jobs.

I worked as a cashier in a hotel, it's my first job, actually it wasn't suit my major in college. i have no choice ,it can afford me meal and accomodation.
In the beginnning i act passively,but later i developed a sense of affection with it. We can play musics while working.But later i flop to another for some reasons.
When i hear the same sone played when i workes as a cashier ,i would think about my splendid time spent ther e, i miss my foirst job much.The ppl i met, and the counter i worked on.
