I am so friken broke...

Yep, that's what the holidays do to you. You buy garbage and then you give it to other people... well not exactly garbage, this shit has actually eaten up my wallet.

So my question is how did you guys find your first job, cos' i don't want to live my life as a jobless bum leeching off my parents. god knows thats going to last only so long...

what was your first job? and how'd you find it and whatd you have to do in order to get hired?

Note: Please no bs responses like : "I did pr0n."

It's not that hard, just look at newspaper and do some field research at your local mall.

getting a job is all in who you know, or i who you're related to.

i got my first job at fisheries and oceans of canada because my best friends father was doing the hiring.

Yes, you can also find someone you know and ask them for help on that subject.


Or you can ask Kamikaze and do pr0n.

I started out hustlaing starsofts nasty ass toothless mom for awhile. After I realized I wasn't making any money off the bitch I slit her throat and stuffed her.

Then I just went to every grocery store and applied till I got hired. Grocery stores will always hired newbies..

Ya, grocery stores are always hiring teens as boxboys, we get em' coming in day in and day out.

I got my first job (Still do), working at Albertson's Grocery Stores. I've been there 8 months and make $6.95/hour, not bad, always at least $110 a week.

Ask around, check the newspaper, it's not difficult.

O trust me I was there for 4-5 years. I hate grocery stores... only thing I liked about working there was stealing cigs n beer when taking the mats outside to sweep them.

my first job was at a carwash, there ALWAYS hireing, and youll get good hours, but the pay wont be great, and youll work your ass off, if you like to have a tan and workout every day, then this job might be liked by you, however, around here that job was filled with wetback mexicans so my job got dull (i dont know spanish) cause i couldnt talk to anyone, including most of the boss's


ive freelanced computer fixin' for the past 2 years (friends word of mouth to other friends is my buisness, its just something i do if someone brings it up)

Apply at one of those hiring agencies. I applied at Adecco a week ago and just had a job today. It was a little minimum-wage temp job, but it put some change in my pocket that I wouldn't have had otherwise. Just apply at an agency and then look for jobs elsewhere.

What david forgot to mention is that he requires me to be online when he does the freelancing computer fixing for the past 2 years, so i can help him fix the computers.

It's funny because you not only fail at insulting me, but you also fail at insulting my mother. What, did you expect her to see this or for me to actually give a damn?

I worked at McDonalds even though I hated their food (still do). And it's really not that hard to get a job at McDonalds.
