Pumped gas at my Dad's gas station. First job ever at 15.

Dishpig, Busboy, Host, Bartender at a couple of different restaurants. Then I grew tired of the food service industry.

Auto Detailer for many years. First for a car lot for several years but they stuck me running the interior cleaning section and doing nothing but interior cleaning was boring so I left for a detail shop for about a year and half. Working for the owner made him all the money and he paid us poorly.

Courier for 13 years. I was a contractor for the company I worked for so the money was very good at first but insurance, parts and fuel kept rising but there were so many companies out there you really didn't raise your prices much.

Went back to school while I was a courier and I am now a Production Operations Accountant for a large Oil and Gas company. I am in my 5th year and this is by far the best job I have had.

 

I never got an allowance growing up, but I got 'paid' to cut the lawn, wash the family cars, weed the gardens, that kinda thing.

First job I paid taxes on was the opening shift of a Burger King. That lasted about 4 months

I interned at Exide Electronics (aka Powerware) in the process engineering department at the factory where they made backup power systems, aka, bigass batteries.

In college I spent a little over a year throwing pie's in a 'gourmet' pizza shop.

Also while in college, I worked at the State Fairgrounds managing some concession stands. My friends and I worked there for about 3 years, until the person we worked for lost their contract at the fairgrounds. During the big shows we could pull $150+ cash for an 8 hour shift. Not bad for college kids.

I worked at a Mongolian Grill for about 5 weeks. After my 2nd paycheck bounced, so did I.

I spent 2 years at the NC DOT's Rail Division working on railroad crossing safety upgrades.

I'm currently a mechanical engineer, doing mostly civil engineering work for a consulting company. We deal mainly with ports (coastal engineering), but we do railroad design as well.

When I'm not doing design work, I'm a Supervisor for underwater inspections. We use surface supplied air and diving helmets to inspect piers, wharves, bulkheads, etc.
