First Jobs

[Rbstr]

Well i got my first job today/yesterday as a lifeguard for the city pool.

So i was wondering What was your first job?

[JetRaiden]

the thread name says fist jobs.

[Rbstr]

fuck you

[JetRaiden]

but seriously my first job was at a fancy resturant washing dishes. I was paid the lowest amount of money I could legally make. it sucked. worst job ever.

Well I did work experience as a tech support guy, lame job, but I really enjoy doing it

Alas, I screwed up my GCSEs, pretty such screwing me up. Unfortunately, I couldn't get into college to redeem my mistakes and redo my GCSEs because I didn't get high enough grades in them (the most bullshit education system ever, if I had high enough grades, I wouldn't redo them)

I signed up with a temp agency and managed to get a couple of crappy jobs, the first one I got was doing "Data Entry", this was boring as fuck, I felt like a monkey on a typewriter. The pay was pretty good, �6 an hour, ~�130 a week, but I only lasted a week, it was that bad.

The next job thay gave me also had the same pay, but was MUCH worse. I had to stuff envelopes. That's right, putting things in envelopes all day, I left after a day, left the temp agency and considered joining the army just to get shot so I didn't have to do anymore shitty jobs. (I'm way too unfit for the army, I'd rather eat a roast dinner than do an assault course )

Anyway, on monday, I'm gonna try and redeem myself and sign up for an apprenticeship course in Hardware Engineering on Network Admin!

SATs are exams that you take in year 6 and year 9 to determine which set you go in

Well i was wondering if they are more of a test like in germany that decides if your going to college, trade school, or aprenticeship for something that doesn't require more classroom teaching.

SAT/ACT are not something that totaly contol what you can do, even with bad scores on those you can get into college

And we have SATs in years 2 and 4. (I got highest score possible in those 2 and in year 6, whilst getting straight 6's in year 9)

What about CATs hezzy, did you do those in year 7? I got 125 for each of them, highest score as well I think Pwnage
