My first paying job was when I worked at McDonald's during my college days. It helped me make enough money to pay my way through college, what with flexible hours, and gave me a sense of accomplishment and self discipline to strive for execellence and to persevere when it came to achieving my goals in life.

My first pay job was at a plating firm.
I do not even know how to get there, an unfamiliar
place in another state. However, by God's grace I
helped an individual who met an accident. Send him
to the hospital, and he later showed me the way to
the place that I need to go. At that time the pay is
extremely low. But it is a good experience as a stepping
stone in this industry.

That is interesting. I applied to work for McDonald and they did not hire me. I guess I was too good for them. My cousin asked her mother to go work for McDonald so he can get free food. Funny enough that was one of the reason I wanted to work for mcdonald. Did you get free food.

My first year of working at McDonald's I got free food. But then things changed, in that all the employees had to pay half price for their food.

I didn't work while I was going to school, but my first job was at a grocery store

My first paying job, was when i worked on Jollibee as a cashier, last 2008, it is good to earn in your own effort, and you accomplish your goal with your self and with the help of the Lord

My first paying job was a paper round when I was a kid. It taught me that working very hard for low pay and carrying a lot of heavy weight just leaves you wishing you'd asked for more and a bad back :)
Glad to see that you had a positive reaction to your first job :)
