From 15 to 23. I worked my way up in management (first assistant store manager). Still to this day I've never had a job that paid as good or had as good perks and benefits.<br /> They make it very hard to leave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-1st-job/page/2#post-1886868 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 21:55:40 +0000 coopsmama 1886868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was printing up and sending invoices for a hay business. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-was-your-1st-job/page/2#post-1886601 Thu, 02 Oct 2014 19:16:54 +0000 Anagram 1886601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Outback Steakhouse as a hostess.
