What was your very first job ever?
Babysitting. I got 50 cents an hour at first and then I got $1 an hour after the first few months. I would be at the house all day long and then the parents would go out at night and I'd only make $12 or so. It was hard and my mom wouldn't let me quit because they were young and poor and needed me. Nothing like a good guilt trip from a mom, huh?
After that I worked at a department store in their office making minimum wage. I quit because the boss never gave me time off to go to the library to do my research for papers due at school (I was in high school and we didn't have the internet) and my education was more important to me than pleasing her.
