my first legit "job" was as a lumper for united van lines
no one ever asked for my id but i had to be the youngest one there
i was working with grown men and ex-cons
we got paid by weight (in cash each day) so there was no fukking around
sometimes i'd make more in a day than my father had made in a week
the work was brutal- summertime heat and easy to get injured
i still shake my head when i see united trucks rolling down the interstate

Working at a country club golf course.

I loved it, staying outside all day, driving around carts, driving the range cart and picking up balls, we'd get free snacks and drinks from the bar every shift, and free meal from the lunch from the kitchen every shift, tips plus an an above average wage :ehh:

Only drawback was the hours. If you opened you had to be at the club at like 5AM, but that was about it.

Worst job I ever had was working at the grocery store as bagger/cashier/cart boy/customer service desk. :mjcry:

I don't even want to talk about it :mjcry:

My first official job was at Six Flags walking around that bytch in the middle of the summer sweeping up popcorn and vomit. I loved it back then because I got to come to the park for free and I got my first piece of p*ssy in the shed where they kept the brooms.

Medical Records at a Medical Office when I was 17.
Once I got the hang of being able to find records quick (this was before electronic records, when they still had paper charts with the different color numbers on them) and deal with lawyers, it was pretty dope. It was really good money. Worked with some good people that I still keep in contact with today.

I worked at a fast food spot.

Used to feel up another female employee in the freezer whenever we had free time.

It sucked money wise cuz I barely got any hours.

Bagger at a grocery store. The tips were decent but there were weeks I didn't get much hours. Then I started grinding and got promoted a few times before i was eventually let go. Best thing that happened since my location closed down and I moved to a much more better company. Retail is tough but you just gotta stay focused. Show ambition and learn and do your best. Your first job may not end up being your career but it's where your work ethic is developed. You'll catch more breaks if you are a good worker and goof up then if you were a slacker. Customer service the same everywhere. Treat everyone with respect. And don't disagree with your boss no matter how stupid the command. And trust me, they'll make some stupid ones up.

First job was in youth prison in the kitchen making 50 cents an hour.
One of the best jobs you could get in jail because you eat what you want and you control nikkas food :ehh:

First job I had was as a parking toll associate at a theme park. I was 15 (2000), and got to work with a bunch of other girls my age. There was this really cute dark skin chick that worked with me, who I would feel up a lot on the sneak tip. I would go in her booth and stand behind her and start rubbing on her booty while it was poking out the back of the chair. She never said anything about it, never tell me to stop or to keep going. I'd do that shyt for hours on some :ninja1::scheme:. Sometimes I would even take her shoe off and rub on her feet. One time some girl in her car caught us and was like ":dwillhuh: what's going on here? Oh, girl, you got one of those :mjpls:" One day we went to lunch together and I bumped into her from behind and apologized, and chick was like, "don't act like that's the first time you've felt it :stopitslime:" Got damn dude I used to molest a bunch of bytches at Kings Dominion :laff:

That summer I got introduced to Wu tang by some white kid. He used to bump OB4CL in his booth. Only thing that sucked about it was that the math had to be done mentally, since we only had a cash drawer. Brehs, my math was shytty back then. I used to come up short on my drawer every single day. Cac female boss would be damn near crying when I came up short :mjcry: Dunno why she took it to the heart so bad. I think I got paid $7.00 an hour back then.

A busser at a restaurant. I started working 2 days after I turned 16.

I was so hype to work...not thinking about how I'd probably be doing it for the next 40 years of my life :merchant:

But it was a cool place to work..wasn't that busy overall and I was making pretty good money for being in high school.

I was able to save up for my first car, threw some money in the back to pay off my student loan after I graduated from college and the rest of my money was spent on clothes.

I owned damn near every retro Jordan that came out.

Life was all about fashion, making money and bytches...hardly any responsibilities. Good times :lawd:
