[OldCootDisgruntled]

First real job was 17 when I learned how to operate various weapons with the intent to repel the Commie hordes if World War Three staerted.

[xobrowneyedbeauty]

i started baby sitting when i was about 12 and did that up until i went to college. then i got my first actual job at 18.

[StarryEmo]

I've never had a actual job besides doing some babysitting.
I've applied 10 times at subway, 6 times at Walmart, 3 times at a gas station and none have ever hired me. I don't know why tho

[JRICHARDS1996]

Are you calling a few days after applying? My dad told me you have to call a few days after applying, ask to speak to the manager or person in charge of hiring, then make sure that you mention your full name so that when they review the applicants, you will stand out.

[YourFutureEx]

I think I'll start working one day and become a better man 😐

[Sara413]

You've never worked? Where do you get your money?

[YourFutureEx]

@Sara413 Good parents.

In most parts of Asia, you don't need to work. When you complete your studies and get a job, then you are on your own, but until that moment, your parents will pay all of your expenses.

[IceEverest]

Yeah, I was surprised how these guys work... I never worked...

[YourFutureEx]

@IceEverest me too. When I joined this site, I realised that how lucky we Asians are.

[IceEverest]

Or maybe not so lucky. Because even if we want to work... They won't allow us to do so, at the end we are totally dependent on them.

[YourFutureEx]

@IceEverest Depends upon perception.

[Cccgala]

I want a job too. Here in my country, I am not legally employable because of my age.

[YourFutureEx]

@Cccgala in most of the countries, the age is 14. And I think you can work anywhere as long as the job is not hazardous.

[Queen_KZ]

:< I never got allowance. I worked over the summer at 15/16 through my school then got an actual job at 18

[Redstang88]

I statted at 15. By 16 I was working full time, I left for school about 8am, got home from work at 1am.
Learned a lot of things, more than I feel like explaining.

My first job was for EB at 14 and it was awesome for me. I got discounts on video games and barely did any work.
