Mine was in the university computer laboratory. I was a working student in my college school. Guess what, they pay my tuition fee and give us book allowance and christmas bonus. That was good to go already in my college life. at least i was still able to finish my degree... w/o paying the ever ending tuition fee increase.

Let's see...first REAL job was babysitting. First job I actually had to drive to was Wendy's. I only got that job because I got a speeding ticket, and my parents wouldn't let me have the car until I paid it off (over $200!) so I HAD to get a job. But, I stayed there for over a year, so it turned out pretty good. I realized I liked having extra money of my own. :)

My first "real" job was at a local (when I still lived in AR) hamburger joint called Mr. Burger. Before that I worked on a horse farm to pay off my horse and to pay for room and board for it.

Mine was for the Credit Bureau. I was 15. I went to the Clerk of Court and checked the public records to see if anyone had any liens or lawsuits filed against them. I worked for them through high school.

Now that's cool for 15. Was this through a program at school because it seems it would be hard to find a job like that at 15.

I worked at a movie theatre as an usher. I saw a lot of each movie when no customers waltzed in the door. I was 19 years old at the time.

I worked at Mammoth Mart as a clerk. I hated refolding curtains and sheet sets and try to put them back into their packages after inconsiderate people took them from their packages and didn't put them back!

Cool! I think that's clothing. I always wished my first job was with clothing, but somehow I think that's where all my pay would have gone.
