... my mother ...
I was born into an Anglican family, but soon drifted away from the church, eventually becoming a Tao-Zen Buddhist ... my mother tried to rekindle my interest in the church and my mother got me a job (at age 13) doing some janitorial and grounds keeping work for our local Anglican church ... I got a flat $125.00 dollars per month and had to shovel snow (winter), plant flowers (spring), cut grass & trim trees/bushes (summer), and rake leaves (autumn) ... as well as sweep & mop floors & take out garbage.
I got my first degree black belt at age 13 and my parents stopped paying for my martial arts lessons ... I had to get a job so I could be able to pay for continuing lessons by myself ...
by Over and Out on December 17th, 2008
Me. I worked at a small kiddie amusement park. It was a blast since there were all kids my age working there. Free food and drinks for us too. So, I always like to tell people that I used to be a "carnival thug!" hahaha
by Rollie on December 17th, 2008
I worked for my dad on the farm and then in a hardware store. My first paying job was as a paperboy and my friend quit and I took it over. I guess I got it since I was waiting for him to quit.
by jas on December 17th, 2008
My first job was an after school job. I heard about it from a friend and we both went to fill out an application and both got hired. My first full time job I got because I saw an ad in the paper and went to apply and got the job.

by Galeanda on February 26th, 2010
Tough question to answer since I've usually worked for myself. I did some work for my parents at their businesses when I was 14-16 but since then I've mostly been self-employed. And later in life I also worked with my husband, again, as self contractors.
by Over and Out on August 1st, 2009
At 16, I got my own job working in the "record" department of a local department store.

My first full-time job after college graduation? Me. I gave my resume personally to the company that I was applying for. Fortunately there was a vacancy, and they asked me to return in the afternoon to take writing and English proficiency examinations. I got hired a few days after. Apparently there was an urgent need to fill that vacancy.
by science_geek on December 17th, 2008
I got it myself. I walked in and talked to the manager and then I had a job.

I'm not exactly sure who "got me" that first job since there was nepotism involved. My father had three brothers. Two of them and a cousin ran the family's Dr Pepper bottling plant in my dad's home town. At age thirteen, I worked there for $10 a day (1961) loading empty bottles into the bottle washer. I only lasted 11 days before I was put on an airplane to fly back home. Could it have had anything to do with the nearly fifty cases of empty bottles I broke in one day?
by Pammie on October 21st, 2009

by ChrisDC on August 1st, 2009
I did -- although I think my Dad may have set it up. I was 13 and the job was running the cash register and stocking the shelves at my cousin's pharmacy.

What was it that you did?
by Sokoot on March 26th, 2010
DreAnna wasn't a real person. Doesn't matter now.
by Zack on March 26th, 2010
What do you mean not real?
by Sokoot on March 26th, 2010
DreAnna was an account made by another AB user. DreAnna never existed. She was just a game played on AB by some jackass who was just messing with people.
