My first job :3

**slayer** · 01-03-2009 01:32 AM

I'm going to get a job at Radioshack very soon! I just got back from a small job interview...well it was more like him telling me what I'd be doing and what goes on around the place.

Anyway, I'm supposed to go back there on monday at 4. I really can not wait! I won't be starting on monday, but I'm supposed to go there to get things signed and stuff.

I'm happy :3

Now I can get money for things I want!

Congratulations Welcome to the wonderfull world of Tax.

Getting your first job is amazing. I have a good job, but just working itself and supporting yourself feels good. Plus, you'll be amazed at how much money you get. Not counting my personal business', I make about $200 a month, and I work two days a week for about two hours each time (except on Saturdays, when it's like 5-6 hours). You can buy anything you want. I rarely, if ever, invest/save that money. I just spend it on clothes and shoes. You'll probably want to save that though.

Keep your money safe. Don't invest in the stock market unless you know what you're doing.

You'll probably end up learning a lot about machinery and circuits if you work at Radioshack too. My cousin works there, he knows a lot.

Hahaha, I make $2400 a month after taxes.

**ClouD** · 01-03-2009 04:11 PM

Hahaha, I don't pay tax.

Either way, I get radioshack discounts.

HEY GOOD FOR YOU!!!!!

I'm actually a former RS employee!!!

You will learn so much about electronics, but I mean way more and better understanding than what Circuit City, Best Buy, ESPECIALY Wal-mart can offer.

Now I have a way better industrial job to fit my needs, but RS was a great place to make money and learn and have fun and meet great friends and play with the merchindise and the discounts and basicly DO STUFF!

Heck, my old manager sometimes asks me to stop by and get on the payroll for some hours just to fix up the store or help out with customers. I do it because of the good times and to relive some great memories.

DUDE!!! I'm here for ya if you have any questions on anything!

P.S. economy is slow and RS is known to be very pushy in making money, but hang in there.

**ChrissyMaria** · 01-07-2009 06:05 AM

Oh yea, discounts are fun!

Good luck on your first day/week

after the first 7 days or so it will be just like going to class in school or something, I hope you have fun

**CoLd BlooDed** · 01-07-2009 06:12 AM

Yeah, the first couple days are always the sketchiest, 'cause you're looking to be the best you can be, not screwing up in front of the boss and all that. Then afterwards you're all good and fall into a groove.

**Entropy** · 01-07-2009 08:45 AM

Congrats on the job, Slayer. Believe me when I say that Radioshack is an excellent first job. No; I've never worked at one... but of the few jobs I've had and have, I'd easily trade any for a spot at Radioshack. As long as you half-learn what gets frequently asked, I think you're golden. Props.

**cuddleyperson** · 01-08-2009 12:17 AM

Earning your own cash will feel really good. I started working at a local supermarket(well..not exactly super sized but it's a huge chain) in June, I'm 17 right now and i earn roughly £150(bout $220?) a month working 8.5 hours a week(4.5 sat, 4 sun). When I'm 18 I'll get £200 for the same hours, which is only 6 weeks away, wooo!

**slayer** · 01-08-2009 02:06 AM

2nd day on the job, and I'm starting to like it.

I was actually dredding going to work and cleaning, but it's not all that bad.

**no-Name** · 03-11-2009 02:03 PM

Applying for my first job in two hours, kroger, minimum wage, awesome.

EDIT: Essentially rejected. Awesome.

**Adam** · 03-11-2009 04:46 PM

I love my job

Started at this company 8 years ago, still here, in a job I love!

**Black_Eagle** · 03-11-2009 04:54 PM

Tell me about the radioshack job. I've got a radioshack within walking distance of my house, and I need a good job.

Here in a couple of weeks I'm going to apply for a job at this Sunharvest grocery store. Kinda sucks because I don't like the prospect of working in grocery stores.
