I think most people went for their first job before they reached the ideal age to work. Many of us may want to earn a living, or just to help up the family or just for fun of it or to earn some pocket money. So what was your first job when you were growing up?

How did you find your first job, how old were you when you start your first. Do share more here! Thanks

Hi vingyan06

My first job was private tuition. When I was 19 I do some job as private tutor. At that time I was a college student. And I choose that job for two reason. One to earn some pocket money. Second as this job is related to learning so I enjoyed.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  4 weeks ago

Hi Reeyan,

Glad to see your response here. Private tuition is a very good job and you get benefits and so to your students. My first job was a tutor too. I teach small kids and that was the time I earn and learn at the same time. I am glad to see many response from this discussion and I am busy going trough all the response so I can know what is the popular job!lol

hi vingyan06 well most farm kids learn to help out at an early age so I guess I was about seven when I learned to pick strawberries, and green beans, fresh peas, and heads of lettuce
It all seemed more like fun to me as I was working alongside
my mom and my grandpa.I was not paid except in fresh fruits and veggies. Then in my teens I helped my mom to harvest our apple crop and I did share in the proceeds from the sale of the fruit
and felt very much the young adult with my own first earned money. I guess I was fifteen or so at the time.

That sounds idyllic! I'm sure it was hard work, but it sounds like a nice life for a child. happy


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  4 weeks ago

Hi Hatley! It is a very good job to get the kids goes to the farm. They for sure will learn a lot there. Not to mentioned about the reward as small kids will need to have some free fruits or vegetables will do, LOL.

I never been to a real farm . I am sure I will get excited to see the strawberries grow red in color, red apples and green beans.

We don't have apple trees here,but we do have strawberries.

my first job was a cashier crew at jollibee store. I was in college that time. Actually I did that job not because of extra income while studying but for some experience purposes and to get away from a boyfriend who was coming home for a vacation from USA and forcing me to marry him.hehehe. I was young and I don't want to get married until I didn't finish my college. But being a crew at jollibee I learned a lot. It was really difficult to work in a fastfood chain that a lot of customers are coming. My lips were always dried up because of talking to much, as expected of course coz i have to get their orders and suggest a product. i had no regrets anyway.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  3 weeks ago

Hi Andrey,

Thanks for your response. Glad that you like your first job. Is Jollibe a department store? Sometimes, it is not easy to work in a service line. We could see all kinds of ugly customers with bad attitude, but of course there will be some nice customers around.

You worked because you want to escape from your boy friend? LOL, this boy friend was so interested in you!


andrey0109 (75)   ranked 10,871 out of 27,358 in make extra money  3 weeks ago

jollibee is a fastfood chain like mcdonald. yeah you are right there many customers who are not really nice, maybe they taught it is just an easy job but for it is far away difficult than staying in the office coy you have to deal with different customers with different attitudes but of course there are also customers who nice and so patient to wait for their food or could understand how difficult to be working in a fastfood chain.
with regards to the boyfriend (ex now) yeah he is so pushy and of i dont want coy i was still studying. working during that time is my only solution to hide..hehehe

A part-time job I had,something like promote sales,four day and 120RMB,to be equivalent to around 20$.It's important and being pedagogical meaning for me,I have not earn by myself.And now memorize used the money to buy a gift for my parents was really good,definitely,Mom always laughed as saw the gift.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  3 weeks ago

Hi Lichee,

Thanks for your response! Yeah, it is true enough, when we used our hard earn money to buy gift for our mother, they will be happy! People go for different job when they are growing up. I believe being a promoter is a normal and simple job. I was a promoter before. I like this job as I able to get some new friends and getting to know more about social with others.

I'm now 50 years old and 40 years ago, yep I was 10 years old I started working. There were things I wanted that my parents couldn't afford to buy me, so I found ways to make money like in the summer I would sweep peoples porches and sidewalks and in the winter I would shovel snow off of the sidewalks. I also offered to go the local store for people. They would give me a shopping list and the money and I would do the shopping for them and they would pay me a little money for doing it. Then when I got a little older I would baby sit children, pets, and houses when people went on vacation. At the age of 14 years old I got a job in a ice skating arena as a cashier. Then at the age of 16 I got a job in a grocery store as a cashier. I have been working for most of my life because I like money, so therefore I work.


myLot reputation of 74/100. CatGods (1036)   ranked 2,757 out of 27,358 in make extra money  4 weeks ago

Any advise..cheers!


myLot reputation of 74/100. CatGods (1036)   ranked 2,757 out of 27,358 in make extra money  3 weeks ago

myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  2 weeks ago

Hi Cats,

But my mom tell me she also start to work at 9 years old, happy.I only started to work at 15 years old. I became the assistant in my brother in law book shop. That was a lovely job.


myLot reputation of 99/100. vingyan06 (1251)   ranked 629 out of 27,358 in make extra money  2 weeks ago

Cat,

Thanks for your invitation. I will check out the site you mention when I am free. I wish to earn more internet money too, as i like money, LOl. But I never know how this stock photo website works. In fact this is the first time I hear of this kind of web site, I am so outdated. How much will I get for stocking photo. I like to take photo for my kids, happy. happy. I blog about my 2 kids and they love to see their photo posted in my blog. I try to earn something from my blog too. I have summit my blog to get some paid post job, though there are not much offer but better than none. I do also place adsense and nuffnang in my blog, readers who click the ads then I will earn. Perhaps you can click any ads there if you find there interest you.

I have send you the friend request, happy!


myLot reputation of 74/100. CatGods (1036)   ranked 2,757 out of 27,358 in make extra money  2 weeks ago

each stock photo site has a different rate of pay and you make money from your photos on a per download basis. If you want to submit photos of your kids then you will have to sign a model release form because they are under 18 years old. But keep in mind that stock photo sites are not looking for snap shots like family pictures. They are looking for photos of things that are unusual, interesting, hard to shoot, and mass appeal.

I joined as a typist without knowing typing. It is a very long and funny story. At the end of one year I became the manager. Even today I don't know typing. Well I can be called one finger typist.

Hi Jugsjugs,

So amazing, you have six kids there. You must be busy with your kids now and no time to work. I have only 2 kids and I already feel tiredness taking care 2 rascal kings. It is not easy to become a stay at home mum. How do you find your life as a mummy? Do you prefer to work or stay at home raising the kids? I still working even I have 2 kids here.

I just read trough all the responses about this discussion, so happy it gains so many members to join this discussions and I find out many of us started to work when we were school students. Me too start to work when I was studying in the high school. But I only work during school holidays.

i was 15 when i started work. Everyone else in my class was 16, but because of my birthday, I was always the youngest.i had the opportunity in my school to stay on and perhaps go on to art school, but i opted to go out to work because all my friends went to work and had money to spend on makeup and clothes. my first job was with a big retail company. i worked in the office with lots of older women. my first wage packet was the sum of three pounds 10 shillings. (which incidentally is a lot less than the lowest hourly rate in my country ) We are talking 1963, the year of the Beatles, swinging London etc., Although I had got o levels, a levels and royal society of arts exam passes plus high results in shorthand and typing, my job was making tea and filing. just a little bit disappointing when you are 15.

Hi Margerydaw,

Thanks for your response. When I was young, I was money minded. I keep wanted to earn more money to buy cloths, shopping. What I want to say is we dont need to think too much on making money when we were young, studying for brighter future is more important. When we are qualified, we can even earn more money. More ever if we work when we are still too young, we don't get to pay much as we don't have much experience.

Once upon a time I used to work in Iceland as a shelf filler! I remember this as being my first job and I didn't like it all that much. I must have been around fifteen years of age at the time. I was glad to get out of that situation to tell you the truth! The boss was very harsh at times and wasn't an easy man to get on with. I also had a paper round at a very young age and I really loved that job. I would wake up very early in the mornings and I would enjoy the fresh air as well as the brisk walk. There was this one dog that always used to follow me for the entire round! I suppose he was like my guardian angel or something! Anyway, I loved that job and I met some very nice people along the route. Andrew
