Can you remember your first job - Page 3

My first job at 13 was selling Tablet & Macaroon bars round the doors.
I would buy 6 boxes at 20p a bar and sell for 30p and eventually saved up enough for a new BMX... best customer was my sister...
At 16 I was a valater in a used car sales, The boss who was a right dodgy guy went to give me my first pay but said he only had a ?100 note
To get change I had to take the ?100 note to the pub across the road so he put it an envelope and told me to give it the Barlady (No probs said I )
Went into pub and approached a well chesticled barlady who I gave the envelope to .
When she opened it she called over her collegues and a few of the regulars who all passed a note from inside the envelope around and burst out laughing ????
The barlady gave me the note to look at and it said..
My name is Marcus and I have a baldy ****, will you please let me shag you...
I went total scarlet....and bolted to the sounds of laughter behind me.
The dodgy boss gave an extra tenner though for my grief.

1st job was a papre round, but I was so lazy some of the customers used to go to the shop and collect their papers themselves, also my Mum used to do the round at weekends so I could lie in lol.

Then I earned ?25 quid a week in a spraypainters on YTS.

One of the sprayers told me to go to his mate and ask how his mums piano lessons were. His mate then kicked me full on in the knackers, bearing in mind he had steel toe cap boots on, I crumpled to the floor. I later found out that said mates mum had most of her fingers amputated. I could hardly walk for the rest of the day

That was a bit sick of him Craig, getting a boot in the bollocks is when these things go a bit too far..
One factory I worked in the new start got a broom handle through the sleeves of the overalls he had on then tapped at the cuffs- spent 4 hrs like jesus on the cross.
