Your first job?

[Guest HBK16]

Well, I was in bed thinking last night how bad my job is now. The I thought of how bad my first job was. I cooked fish and washed dishes for 7 hours straight with only 2 days off every week, minimum wage, and had school to top it off. I went hoem smelling like fish. Anybody else regret or hated their first job? Maybe I can gain some self esteem from hearing somebody else's first job.

I only had 1 job but I still do it. It is not like a rela job I just beat motherfuckers up for money. See after school a bunch of people get together and start fightin. They make odds and shit and make people pay cover to watch and bet on the fight.......if your ass is fightin you got to put money up. I have had ten fights and lost only one.

 

The quickest I one I had was with this girl that wanted to fight. I beat her ass and I made her give up. She was pretty good lookin but she was always a stuck up bitch who thinks she's hot shit.....I am suprised she wanted to fight. I felt good kickin her ass but she cried after so I felt pretty bad and wished I disn't whupp her ass so bad. She is not bad though.....she beat the first guy she fought and she's gona fight again soon.

 

It is always a bumpin party....we had a few girl on girl fights and one time these 2 girls fought naked......they both needed money so they wanted to do it like this since they got paid alot.

My first job was to HHH.

 

Fucking politics.

[Guest Dark Lotus]

If I can be serious for a moment...

 

My first job was working at a pizza place for minimum wage.  That's why I got so fat, we had to eat our mistakes.  

[Guest TUS_02]

I had to walk a dog for an hour, 2 days a week... 10 bucks a week

 

not bad for a high school freshman

[Guest Big McLargeHuge]

I delivered newspapers at a hotel. Suite by suite. I got paid by the amount of papers I delivered. Since the hotel I worked at was relatively small, I only got $20 a day (but no taxes). I'd have to wake up at 4:00 am and get to the city by 5:00. It was ok at first, but after a year, it sucked.

Comic book store...worked about 2 years and untill it went out of business.

 

I liked it for the most part (small store)...but it got to be where I was the lone employee. And the customers who kept telling me their "Magic the Gathering" stuff started bugging me.

 

and oh yeah...my boss ended up stealing a good chunk of change by pocketing the money out of my check that was suppose to go to taxes.

 

So my last day there I pocketed about $150 (he had sold the register and pretty much everything ended up being however much the person would give for somehting), took the comics and toys I wanted...and purposely broke a Lady Death statue...Kiss my ass Tim.

 

Cardinal Comics in Waterford MI...1990-1999

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

My first job?  How about working at a Yacht Club.  Yeah, because serving food to rich,elitist old guys with 100 foot yachts so totally rules!

[Guest J*ingus]

I worked in a movie theater, mostly as a concessions seller.  We got minimum wage, constantly smelt of popcorn, and the bosses trusted us so much that they kept a video camera on us.  

 

In fact, my first 3 jobs were all at different movie theaters...

[Guest TUS_02]

My second job was bussing at the local pizza place.  It was alright... I learned how to hate customers without really....hating them.  One of the waitresses was a walking depression... now matter how good my day/week was going, working with this cunt really killed it.

[Guest HBK16]

Wow. MarvinisaLunatic you made me feel a lot better. That woul be such a cool job.

[Guest DubWiser]

My first job mainly consisted of me sitting in a freezer getting bombed while pretending to stock the shelves:

 

Middle Eastern Boss Dude: "Dub", you been in long time. For hour. Huddy up and be out!

 

Me: *Cracking Heinekin* Ok boss.

 

Sixteen years old, summertime, in a freezing cold room filled with beer, getting paid...

 

//Best job ever

[Guest HBK16]

Dub Wiser: I love your little pic. It is so cool.

[Guest arejay]

Busboy/dishwasher at a Mexican restaurant.  First check was 70 bucks. I got my paycheck, quit, and then spent it on stupid trinket crap at the mall.  I was sixteen so I wanted to show my responsibility and maturity by blowing my own money on crap instead of my parents money....

[Guest Ace309]

My first job was with a painting crew that did the insides of houses that rich people had built for themselves and prefab houses for created communities. I was so bad that all they had me do was paint the ceilings, the insides of the closets and the corners of the walls.

 

My second job was at Rite Aid. I worked there for a year and a half and enjoyed the vast majority of it because I got to be a dorky helpful guy who could find the paper for you when it was right under your nose. Easy work, not bad pay, and the management staff was great.

 

Until Debbie From Hell came in and brought most of the crew from her old store with her. She was so abusive that everyone who had other options left almost immediately, and I as a keyperson was stuck with the kind of people who could barely work a zipper and thought that it was their duty to try and stay on break as late as possible to "screw the man."

 

I left shortly thereafter, leaving a complaint with the DM.

 

And yet, she's still there.

[Guest MarvinisaLunatic]

Wow. MarvinisaLunatic you made me feel a lot better. That woul be such a cool job.

You'd think so wouldn't you?

 

But sadly that statement about it totally ruling was so totally filled with sarcasm.

 

WORST..JOB..EVER! wouldnt even halfway describe it.

Plus, the pain and irony is I have to go back and work 3 more months.  

 

Id ask someone to shoot me now, but they'd probably still have my roting corpse there on display for the old women to look at or something...eghhh!

[Guest Galactic Gigolo]

The first job I ever had was at a video store that my father is the lawyer for.  I still work their occasionally (still in High School, but it's simple so I don't need time to study), and it's quite possibly the most fun I ever thought I could have working.

 

And I also wrote a screenplay that I sold to an indpendant producer for a measly (when associated with writing) $2,000.  It was a horror film, and I was all psyched because I thought it was going to be made.  What happens?  He goes to jail for a couple years because of tax problems.

 

But, I regress....

Well, technically, my first job was as a babysitter for these kids across the hall. They had a Nintendo and cable TV, so it was pretty cool. I was a horrible babysitter, though. This is back when I was a stupid mark (I was young, give me a break), so I actually put the boy in a sleeper hold, not knowing that it was really a choke hold. I thought he would harmlessly go to sleep, just like Brutus Beefcake's victims on WWF Superstars of Wrestling. When he started to choke really bad (turning red or whatever), his little sister started yelling at me to let go of him, so I did. He recovered though, so I don't think they ever told their parents about me, since they continued to hire me afterwards

 

That's right, I was nearly the Lionel Tate of 1989.

 

Boy, I sucked at babysitting.

 

My first "real" job was as a Barnes & Noble bookseller for a B&N in my neighborhood. Everyone else seemed to hate working there, but I actually enjoyed it. Sure, the pay was kinda low (though I got promoted relatively quickly, so I was making more than everyone else), but I was good at it and the people who I worked with were pretty cool (other than pay, it's your co-workers that make your place of employment either a fun or shitty job). I worked in the computer/business/reference section, and the customers loved me because I knew a lot about computers and would give out free advice. Plus, I had my own little clique of wrestling fans, and we'd all huddle together and talk about wrestling.

 

Also, the store was a good place for celebrity sightings. There was this one time when one of the guards was trying to let me know that a certain actor/comedian was walking around on my floor, but he couldn't place his name. So, he attempted to jog my memory by saying, "what was the name of that movie with Emilio Estevez, where they're driving around and get lost in this neighborhood...". And I replied, "JUDGEMENT NIGHT! Boy, did that movie suck!" Then I turn around and Denis Leary is standing there, with his son, giving me a dirty look. LOL!

[Guest El Hijo Del Lunatic]

I don't know which job I had first - running the scoreboards for the local youth basketball league or cutting grass at the local little league.  Either way, it was a cool way to pick on kids younger than me, especially when they'd try to be all cool and stuff.  Plus, I got to abuse a tractor with the little league job.  You'd think that's a dumb thing, but it was always fun driving it on the street to get gas when I was 14 and didn't have a license.

 

Sure, the pay was kinda low (though I got promoted relatively quickly, so I was making more than everyone else), but I was good at it and the people who I worked with were pretty cool (other than pay, it's your co-workers that make your place of employment either a fun or shitty job).

 

Damn right.  I've had some run-of-the-mill jobs in my life (besides both of those, sales associate in a department store, mail clerk, warehouse picker/packer) and I really only hated one job, a job I liked originally until all the fun people quit/got fired and losers were brought in.
