Hey my first job was a dishwasher at a restuarant. It was Country Kitchen on 8th. Now Ruckers is there. The job I had before that was a paper route, but I never see that as a job. A paper route back then was what every young lad did. Getting a job in the working force was the job. I did that for 3 years and quit the place and got on at another restuarant and became assistant manger through the rest of my school years including Kelsey.

Congrats, sounds pretty easy. My first job (15/16 years old), was in a stone quarry, hand cutting good old Pennsylvania bluestone. . Talk about brutal.......
