I set up Christmas Tree displays in October! I quit after the first day! Then I got a job selling "Hip clothes" in a botique. Three months after that I joined the Retail Clerks union and worked at a grocery store.

Does babysitting count? I started babysitting at 14. I had a regular babysitting job after school 3 days a week at 15.

My first job where they took out taxes was when I was 17. I worked as a student aide in an office on my college campus when I wasn't in class.

Babysitting at 12. Real job at sunrise cinemas,when I was 15. It was so funny because I didn't even want the job, but went with a friend to fill out the application. When we were called, her parents said no way. Mine said the responsibility would be good for me. I worked the whole summer until there was a riot. My father (a criminal lawyer who doesn't scare easily), finally felt I had enough "responsibility. The following summer I worked in a clothing store.
