First part time job? Lemme think. I spend 12 years working at a local theme park once. I started out in admissions at 15, part-time. When I was 16, I was promoted to a lead position. By 18, I was in charge of hiring all of the summer help. All 400 of them.

I spent a while doing that during and after college. While with the same company I also bartended, ran the park, ran the ice rink, drove a Zamboni, repaired the Zamboni, helped run food service, among other things.

It worked out pretty well with teaching (since it was primarily summer work), so I kept that job after college. They have been closed for a few years now, so now I spend my summers working on my house.

A bunch of us who worked there a long time still get together once a month or so for dinner.

Cammy all you're doing is just creating problems..

On topic..

My current job which happens to be my first job requires moving various school equipment along with putting new desks and whatnot together. Pretty easy job and the pay isn't that bad.

I worked in a fish and chip shop every Saturday for about a year then left to study for my GCSEs.

I've just started working in a pub restaurant Saturday was my first day (just finished a lovely 7 hour shift). But this is just to get some money during the summer holidays, I'll be finishing when I go back to college in September.
