What was your first ever job?

[kbwebb]

Just interested to know really, what was your first ever job? Did you volunteer anywhere to get work experience or did you manage to get your first job with no experience at all?

I started delivering flyers/newspapers at 12 years old, not sure if that counts! When I was 15 I started working in a restaurant clearing tables, seating guests, etc, so I guess that was my first real job. After that I spent 5 years working at a tennis club year round, and doing landscaping work in the summer. Then did retail work through university, and worked as a research assistant in the summers before I got my degree and got my first "professional" job. I didn't really have any direct experience for any of my employment because everything I did was in different fields of work.

My first job ever was at the tourist agency. A travel agent's role is to help people plan, choose and arrange their holiday and that was a really good experience.
