I also baby sat. That's how I paid for my class ring. Next was a cashier and parts clerk at Trak Auto until I went into the Navy.

Sug was a parts chick

You knew you loved me for a reason, didn't you? The best was the guys whose race shall remain nameless that wanted a part for his Chebby Ban. Took me for freakin' ever to figure that one out.

First job (punishment detail) was helping my neighbor butcher rabbits and chickens.... My first (paid) job was on a tobacco farm in North Carolina - sunup to sundown, picking tobacco.

my uncle had a tobacco farm on his property outside of Durham. Not sure if it was his or he leased the land to a farmer. What a dirty hard job.

Paper boy @ 12, worked in a drugstore from 14 to 17, delivery boy was the best job, because of the tips, grocery store clerk, Computer operator for Virginia Electric and Power and Albermarle paper Co, Front line management trainee, Spruance Film after college, transferred to Wilmington in 68 and worked in IT for duPont and CSC until 2001.

My current job is entertaining Zoe, the pay sucks but the fringe benefits are great.

Sounds and looks like a 'side sink man' ' Pots and pans was a 'back sink man'. I learned that in basic training at Fort Polk. I also learned that the 'back sink man' was responsible for the grease trap.

Working at a restaurant called CJ's up in Massachusetts. Mainly dishwashing, but also did some preparation and, once in a while, cooking. The food was awesome there

Also worked at KMart at the same time. That didn't last nearly as long.

First money making opportunities as a kid were cutting grass in summer and shoveling snow in the winter, walking the neighborhoods knocking on doors like a salesman, and of course you had the ones you knew would take the service as repeat customers - these folks were good for other 'odd jobs' too if they caught you when they needed something.

Also had a few paper routes, the Inquirer was delivered before school and the Daily News was waiting when you got home, that's the first 'formal' job, with a boss, working for the man, and if they're reading this - shove that Sunday Inquirer up your ass, thanks.

My first real job was bussing tables at the Eagleville Hotel in Monco PA while I was still in school. It was all you can eat clam night and the fireman's fair was across the street and they were uber busy all night. I was supposed to get off at 11PM and got off at 1:30 AM (which I'm not sure was really legal) and my folks told me I didn't have to nor did they really want me to go back.

After High School I worked on a trash truck for about 6 months then got a job as a shipping and receiving clerk in the power transmission business in which I worked in some capacity including inside sales between 78' and 95' with about a three year period mixed in when I drove tractor trailer and again for about 9 months after I got downsized in 95'. I've been working in the water and wastewater field ever since.
