Jobs
A couple days after turning 16, I went to fill out job application. I could not wait to start making my own money, to be able to spend it out whatever I wanted. I went to a couple places in my town that I thought I would enjoy working at. A couple weeks later I got a call back from Tom's Supermarket that is seriously not a quarter mile away from my house. I was so excited when they told me they wanted to interview me. At the interview they hired me on the spot. I was so excited yet nervous to start my first job. After starting there I loved it. I love being able to interact with different people everyday. There were those regulars that came in at the same time everyday also that I loved. I can usually make small talk with anyone about anything. After working there for almost two years I decided that I needed to move on from there and find a job that would help with my career that I want to do. My brothers go to Laugh & Learn Daycare in town and I figured that would be a perfect place to start. While I was picking them up one day I asked for an application to fill out. A couple days later I turned it in and got a call back for an interview. I was so excited! After the interview, the director called me back a couple days later to offer me a job there. Even though I have babysat lots of kids, been around children all my life, and even taken care of my little brothers, I was nervous to start. After working there for a couple weeks I can honestly say that I had nothing to worry about. I absolutely love working there! I actually look forward to going to work and seeing all the kids that adore me. I never thought that I would love working with people so much, from being with new borns at the daycare from talking to 80 year old people at the supermarket, I can honestly say that I could never have a job that does not interact with different people everyday.

I felt the same way when I turned 16. I could not wait to make my own money and I wanted the experience of having a job in the real world. My dad picked me up an application from Flowerama when he was getting my mom a bouquet of flowers. They hired me and I worked there for a little less than 2 years. It was the best first job ever!! Sadly, they closed down so I had to find something new. I'm now a server at Logan's Roadhouse and I love it! I'm glad to hear you love your new job at the day care :)
