my first job was washing dishes at some crappy cafe/restaraunt in york. it was really horrible, with food being picked up of the floor and served to the customers and the irate italian owner shouting at me constantly. everyday i wondered if he was going to die, he looked so ill. i think i lasted a few weeks and then quit.

i was a roadie for my dad couple of times but i guess you can't really call that work.

York, PA?
I was there this past fall.
Well, Glen Rock actually, but close enough.

Thrasher:
Roadie-ing is work for sure!

yeah, My first fultime pay thing (lasted three days).
I was working for my cousin doing labor work. The first day friggen sucked. Woke up at 5 after maybe 5 hourse of sleep got picked up at 6. Unloaded the truck then I raked roofs with a rather short backbreacking roof rake. The day lasted twelve days. 90 degrees on top of a roof with no shade bent the whole time for twelve hours (or was it ten?) either way I made $80. I dont like working much so Im making a game website to make some money.

My first job was working at a card shop, which wasn't bad, despite the fact that I ABHOR greeting cards - it was family-owned, so it was very tight-knit and laid back. However, I encountered a few unpleasantries during my employ there:

- Got robbed of a candy machine by a homeless man
- Had a man flop his dick out on the counter while paying for his cards
- Set a deaf girl's hair on fire
- Set the carpet on fire
- Got a very believable bomb threat from a cross-dressing schizophrenic (really, he was schizophrenic) in bike shorts named Juan
- Caught a guy jerking off into the gift bags, and had to clean it up
- Endured the Beanie Baby craze, during which a customer, irate over not getting one of the new releases, threw a flaming Beanie Baby-adorned brick through the plate glass window

But the pay was alright, and there was no dress code.

As for my home country, I worked on a call-centre in bank for one year when I was 21. As for USA, I worked in this:

 

in Canyon City, CO (sucked big time....$5.25 an hour!)

and in this:

 

in Baltimore, MD. Kind of better, but in a VERY bad neighbourhood.

I was doing pretty decent subs though and qot quite a reputation for that. Maybe because I was always putting extra stuff on it.

My first job was in a book shop. I got a staff discount and spent all the money I earned on books I ordered in for myself.

oh man! well i think that any job that involves coming into contact with the general public involves meeting some serioulsy messed up people.

working at the cinema in leeds involved plenty of this. you would be suprised a the sheer amount of sex that happens in a cinema, and guess who was the poor guy who had to clean up!

My first job was great cause i worked in news kiosk and all i did was reading
my books and music magazines for 3 hours in the afternoon.On top of that my boss was so permissive i was allowed to bring in my ghetto blaster and listen to the jesus and mary chain at the expense of the poor customers!!
My second job was the worst cause i wasn't mentally in the place at all!!I worked in a bar in northern Italy and one day this fucking arsehole simply said to me:''Make me a Coffee!''.That was IT!!I did'nt say anything,i simply got out of the bar,put my coat on,went to the train station and got on to a train that was heading on towards Milan.This was right in the middle of a busy shift for the bar.The fuckface is probably still waiting for his cup of espresso!!

One of the worst jobs i did was working in a call centre in North London for a company that shall reamain unnamed but they sucked big time.We had to do market research on the phone and this involved reading from a script without been able to paraphrase.So i had to ask random Northern England and Scottish housewives( and grannies sometimes) about their sexual habits and how many times they washed their cars wich,as you can imagine,wasn't a simple task at all.The worst was when you had to target a certain group,say,16 to 18 year olds at a time when most british teenagers are out getting on with their youth.The cruelty of this was also the fact that you were supervised by a walking elephant that would spout out every few minutes stuff like:''Go on folks,the target is.....''.I lasted about a week or so.They gave me a call asking for availability.I put the phone down.

my first job was in a record store which i did for 6 years before going to university, then i became a sound engineer. i have had it pretty easy i guess and never had to do anything i didn't want to. now i chose to do exactly what i want and don't do anything that sounds remotely boring to me. i'm pro choice.
