speaker My first part-time job was washing dishes in a restaurant. It wasn't a very glamourous job, but I really wanted it because I wanted to pay for horse-riding lessons, so every Saturday night I went to this restaurant and worked for maybe five hours every night. It was hard physical labor¹, but it taught me the value of money.

 

speaker My first part-time job: I was living in a small town, Tulsa, Oklahoma, and I worked for the Harmon Foundation, and they owned a hands-on, science and math museum for children, so every day I would run a laser light show, and once I was through with that I would give museum tours and explain the science and math background to each exhibit, to adults and children. It was a lot of fun seeing kids open their eyes to mathematics and science and wanted to know more and asking questions that I couldn't answer. I really, really enjoyed that, and so I hope that some of those kids that did come in, to the museum, I hope they did create a future in science.

 

speaker My first part-time job was as a cashier at a supermarket. I really hated it, cause I had to stand on my feet for basically eight hours a day dealing² with a lot of people who don't appreciate the job that we do, so I had a lot of people yelling³ at me for different reasons and always misunderstaning the situations. It's not a job I would go back to.

 

speaker My first part-time job was working at McDonald's. When I was fifteen, I had a job at McDonald's flipping⁴ burgers, doing fries, cooking, not taking orders. I enjoyed it for awhile, about two or three months, btu then I started losing interest in it, and after six months, I quit the job, but it was a good job for a fifteen year old.

 

speaker My first part-time job was at a bakery, and this is in New Zealand and about, I was in high school then, so about two times a week, in the weekend and Fridays after school, and Saturdays all day, I would go to the bakery and sell the bread to the customers and then the best part about the part-time job was that at the end of the day, all the leftover⁵ bread, we could take home to our families, which made my brother very very happy.

 

speaker My first part-time job was at a restaurant called Chucky Cheese. It's a famous restaurant in America that is for little kids and sometimes I was a waiter but sometimes I got to dress up as Chucky. Chucky is a big mouse. He's the character for Chucky Cheese, and so I was, I would dress up in a big mouse costume and go around entertaining little kids.
