I washed Police cars, in and out, at the Scottsdale, AZ Police Department on the weekends. 4.25 per hour.

Gosh I miss that job.
Apparently, one in five people in the world are Chinese. And there are five people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother, Colin. Or my younger brother, Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin. - Tim Vine.

My first job was working on a rice farm plowing fields and harvesting at the age of 13. Did that until I turned 18 and graduated HS.

Well my very first job was when I was visiting my mom for the summer in Houston, she worked at a pizza place called Skybox pizza, I made the dough, don't remember what they paid me, it wasn't much, but it was cash at the end of the day.

But my first official job getting a pay check was a bagger for a grocery store called Dominick's making $4.65/hr, minimum wage.

My first job was as a cashier at a large-chain grocery store.  I knew I probably wasn't going to make it long on that one when I accidentally insulted someone.


A very well to do asian looking family comes in.  I check through about 150 dollars worth of groceries.  They pull out a credit card (looking item), and start trying to put it through.  I rung it up as a credit card purchase.  Several times it didn't go through until I took the card and tried to put it through on my end.

I mention that the credit card isn't going through and asked if they had another one.  The wife looked at me and half yelled, "They're food stamps, handsomehunk!"

I never put it together.  They were wearing REALLY nice clothes, shoes, accessories, the works...  It looked exactly like a credit card, and no body had ever explained to me that Food Stamps were not really stamps anymore.

Back then I had a horrendous habit of blurting out stuff before thinking.  I said, "Those things are real?"  The Manager had come over at that point, and sorted it all out.  But she was a coward and didn't fire me on the spot.  After a weak of about half my usual hours at the ABSOLUTE worst times, I took the hint and left on my own.
