Worked midnight shift 10pm-8am) Manager smoked pot in the back, so i would go outside and smoke ciggs (Wasnt allowed to smoke during midnight because only 1 manager worked and 1 worker) He always new I was in my car I would tell him (Hey man going outside for a smoke) He told the "Boss" That I was "Dissappearing" And she brought it to my attention and told me If i have a "bladder problem then I shouldnt work there" So I quit around 1am, She called me at 2am asked me to come back. So anyays at 5am she told me she put me back on my old schedule 2-3 hours a day, 2-3 days a week, So I quit again.) Welding (Big 3 welded bases for car manifactures and ect) (Was having heart problems was taken medication, it got to me one day. And manager told me to fill out a paper for "Time off" Told me to come back monday. That was thursday, Anyways woke up 5am to go to work, And They called me around 5:30 to tell me because i didnt call in friday that i was fired, I was like "WTF?" Pumping gas lol (Swifties) (It started interferring with my job with pizza pro and i was making like $40-$50 a night working at Pizza pro. Manager told me i had to pick one job, So I picked Pizza Pro) Delivery Boy (Pizza Pro) (Worked here twice, Got fired both times. Vehicle kept breaking down) Salvation Army (I quit this job because I got the job at Big 3) Mechanic (Expert Tire (Oil changes, Changing tires/Fixing tires, Stacking and loading tired) (I Worked here for a month through a temperary serverice and after a month got transferred to Salvation Army) And worked at a cake factor (Mary lee's) (Placing stickers on cases for 12 hours a day, Gosh i hated this job) (I quit because i was in G.E.D. And I worked every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday and every other week I would work Monday's also. But my G.E.D. Classes went from 7pm-9pm, And I worked from 7pm-7am. And I talked to my manager and he said That the position i was in I couldnt change shifts unless someone quit. He told me it would be best for me to quit and get my G.E.D.) Currently am trying to get the job at the cake factory back. Because its 12 shifs and making decent money.

Wow, all those jobs at just 19!
I'm 20 and I've only had one job for about 5 months before I quit. Maybe some of you know the place, Fry's electronics :\ Awful place to work at. At my evening shift during closing the schedule is suppose to be until 10 pm but we can't leave until everything is cleaned up and new stuff stocked for the next day, so that mean I don't leave until 12 midnight sometimes later. The people are cool though, mostly around my age I made tons of friends.I quit because I wanted to go travel instead. Also, I was doing horrible in college and I had to drop all my classes that semester. I haven't work since. My parents are supporting me right now... Makes me feel like a bum...

Community Manager

I have to agree with you Soma - really make me appreciate my degree. I have a BS in Accounting and worked in that field for about 10 years before I decided I had had enough. I now have a nice relaxing job working in a craft store a the custom framing manager and I love it.
I am getting ready to start classes in August at our local Community College in order to become an American Sign Language Interpreter. It's something I am very passionate about and will hopefully allow me to help a great many people during my lifetime. Another wonderful benefit will be that my kids will learn how to sign and learn a second language should they ever need to use it. Nikki ![]() |

I have alot of jobs under my belt... well a few anyways. I have waxed floors, worked for the town cleanin garbage, mowing the ball field etc etc, worked at a lumber mill, worked at a research forestry once. And then I got the bright idea to join the military here in canada and I absolutly love it. They keep me really busy, and I get to do alot of things most people wouldnt never be able to. And so far I have done 2 trades, a few years artillery, 1 year air defense, and now supply tech(they figured out I was color blind)
All in all, I have fired alot of guns, trained alot and I get to go to afghanistan next year! That should be interesting. I am excited, but scared. As anyone would be I guess. But, that cant stop me so hopefully I go and come back safe to do it again for you all! |

Well.. I am almost 17 and I have only had one real job. That would be working at Safeway(grocery store) being a temporary sales demonstrator. In other terms that means I handed out samples. Once i go to college though, I would love to do something in law enforcement.

Started off cutting my neighbors lawn at the ripe age of 13.
Stopped that to get a real job at Bear Rock Cafe at 17. Started in Sales then went to Kitchen then went to both at the same time, which is why I left. Then went to a Pepsi Plant and a label machine operator for the Lipton line. That was tons of fun, lots of glass in the hands and arms, but that was done because it was just a summer job, and I went to college. Now I work in a Marriot as Banquet Staff. You know those guys that give you your food at a wedding, thats me. And hopefully tommorrow I will learn that I got a Supervisor position at a local movie theater.
