Hello guys,
After graduation, I had to leave home to look for greener living. I needed a job to survive and take care of my needs so I started applying to different organisations.
I got my first job 3 months after. I never liked it, but I had to survive. It was a sales job, we were to market some international magazines and the pay was $30 per month.
I was working, but swore to change job to another one as soon as possible. After 6 months, I got another one with $35 per month, but it was way better than my first job
So, what was your first job, how much were you paid, did you enjoy doing it?

I told plushies when I was 15 and I made like 10 bucks per plushie and made like 200 bucks in a year. Which is pretty decent for a 15 year old haha My first actual job was K-mart and I worked for 2 weeks with 7.80 per hour.

When I was a jr in high school in Hawaii, I worked at a small company stuffing patterns for Hawaiian clothing into paper envelopes. Don't remember how much I made, but the job didn't last long!

My very first job was when I was 14. I was in an orphanage, and would be sent to foster carers for school holidays. One of my foster carers ran a bakery, and let me work there during the holiday to earn a little money. My first job after I left school was in a milk bar/cafe. I can't remember what either of them paid - it was over 50 years ago.

I think once you have a job, it is often easier to get the next one. My first job was as a governess on a sheep station.
