easy, but my first "real" job was at burger king. My construction job was a hook up and when i worked ata video store it was after about 15 resumes out. My treeplanting job this summer was easy.

Not that hard. The real key to getting good jobs is knowing people.

knowing people helps, but every job i've gotten i've applied for and worked for. dont just go in there and be like "are you gonna hire me." just call htem and be like "i was wondering if you had a chance to review my app yet." and be persistant. persistance definetely works

my first job was at an auto glass shop cus my dad works there. and i started working at a resuarant washing dishes a month ago. that job i got cus my friend asked the chef if he wanted another dish washer and he said yeah. so i guess ive been pretty lucky. and washing dishes sucks a lot more than my first job but at least i get a 60 dollar pay check everyweek.

I worked at a Grociery Store from 14 till 22. It was a tits job after I was moved from Bag bitch to stock and then manager. I remember my first paycheck, i though 130 bucks was a lot of money then. Those were the days. Now i'm a investment advisor which pays a ton better.

I applied to 31 places before anybody would hire me. Now, first place I apply, I can get a job. It's weird.

open up, we're coming inside. What's it feel like to know you're gonna die?

what kind of places are you applying to? If you're 15, you need to accept that you're going to get a shitty job...especially if you have no experience. Apply to be a dishwasher or bag bitch. You can only move up from there, and most places will hire you again next year for a different job rather than hire someone they dont know. But the big thing is getting over any expectations for a kick ass job. Work sucks.

i applied one place, they didnt hire me.

my mom knew some lady which "hired" me. i've worked once in the last year. in total, i've worked for about 5 days accumulating around $700. if they didn't pay $13/hr, equating to around $150 a "time," i'd be pretty fucked. good thing i don't buy anything.
