My very first job was a Mathematics tutor. I used to teach students who were studying either 12th grade in India and others who were preparing for engineering entrance exams. Those were good days. I could do a lot of maths in mind without need to pen and paper. And this included differentials, integration, limits, probability, trigonometry etc. Today, Windows + R -> calc -> enter is the first thing to do any Math.

Paper round - early mornings, deliver the newspapers before school. Hard work for pretty rubbish money. I stuck it for a year or two, I think, then I got a job in a Bra shop at the age of twelve. Oh boy! :omg: It was an education in so many ways... :-D

It had the obvious advantages - but the hidden disadvantage that it's the kind of job that creates a lot of jealousy amongst those not bright enough to have thought of it! :-D

Last year at school I landed a plum job at Littlewoods, working the suit department. The suits weren't the plum part, suits were a sub-section of the Lingerie for some reason, and at that time Littlewoods had pretty decent ladies' skimpies, even a bridal section. Top moment: a very fit women asking me what I thought she'd look like in some particularly fetching lacies. Worst moment: Being a callow youth, and not realising this was a come-one until much later.

My first summer job when I was at Uni was Passenger Enumerater, flash title for counting people that got off a train. Read Jules Vern and got paid in the sun!

My first job was a dish washing position at a family owned restraint. Unfortunately I wasn't family... Eventually I was laid off instead of one of their own despite the fact that I was actually a hard worker and their own slacked off. Hell I tried to come in to work with strep once and they sent me home. That was the only time I ever missed work. Flash forward 6 years, and here I am. I just landed my first programming job with a startup here in Raleigh. Nothing has ever been more exiting in my life than getting payed for what I love to do.

First programming job was in '89. I became an IBM system 370 FORTRAN programmer and was required to make heavy use of JCL and some JES2. I used to write programs that created my JCL to handle the main programs due to the number of datasets. Those were the good old days! From there it was M$ F77 compiler then onward and updward.

Selling what we couldn't eat from the family garden at the market - tomatoes, onions, cabbage and so on. IIRC, I started at age ten. My first programming gig was making small programs for lazy or dumb colleagues while in faculty - I charged two bottles of beer per program. It earned me a truckload of beer.
