Today I am linking up with Andrea for "Show And Tell Tuesday". Be sure you grab the graphic and link up too!
Today we are talking about our first jobs! I always find it so interesting to hear people tell about the jobs they had...especially their first ones!
Like many, I guess my first job was babysitting! I have always loved kids, and I started babysitting for neighbors when I was probably 12 years old! When I started high school I started babysitting pretty consistently for a family with one little boy. I loved babysitting for them! They paid me really well, and I got to tag along on a few of their vacations to watch their little guy!
My first real "paycheck" job was when I was 16 years old and I was a bus girl at a local restaurant in town....so glamorous I know! Funny thing...I really loved that job! I remember feeling so independent and I looked forward to the weekends and going to work! I did that until I was 17 years old then I started working at the Children's Place in the mall!
Really nothing super exciting, but I do totally remember feeling like a "big shot" having a job and a paycheck each week!
Can't wait to read about everyone else's first jobs today!
Oh my goodness I would not have even thought about babysitting as my first job but it really was the first job I was paid to do....unlike you I hated it!! I think I babysat the brattiest little kids and I just remember the parents I sat for every Saturday were the most terrible house keepers. When the girls would go down for naps I would clean her fridge every single week and throw away the rotting food. :)
