Canadian Tire mixing paint and cutting ropes. Wasn't the greatest, but it's better than fast food.

My first job and currently still my job is a hardgoods sale associate at sport chek!

Literally the best job ever; everyone I work with is so chill and we all have a good time working.
Manager pulls me into random rooms after he let off a fart. Fucking gross hahahahah.
Sick hours>
Shitty customers <

they literally think they can get the best ski and board gear for $70 new..
or get mad when they have to wait in a long line.

also the discount is second to none. Rounds off to be about 50% off everything in the store.

First job my friend's dad hired five of us to come into his law firm a few hours a day and file away closed cases for off-site storage. Turns out, we did all of it wrong and he had an intern go in and redo it all.
Favorite job is my current summer job and that's doing beer delivery. Hard ass work but it's kind of fun once you get good at using a hand truck.

Cleaning up garbage at my city's stadium when I was 11. It sucked more than country music and dubstep combined.

Got a job at culvers and went through all of the non paid "training" then i quit after the first day because being a fryboy fucking sucks. And i got a better job at a 3rd party mailing place for usps. Easier and i work every day from 330-6 no weekends.

Worked at a go-kart track. Awesome job, most summer weekdays it'd be so slow so we'd just play cards all day.
