hello, everyone! :)
as many of us are aware, the senior class at recolle high school will be graduating soon, and well....
i am part of that class!
i guess because of this fact, i have been thinking that it is maybe time for me to be a bit more independent than i have been, and find a job
this is pretty easy in theory but i find that there is a problem that is maybe not much of a problem to some people but it has been giving me something to think about lol
namely, i do not know what to expect and how difficult getting my first job will be :o
if you have advice, i would definitely like to hear it!!!!
on the other hand, i would like to know what your first job was like, as a blanket sort of thing

ummm, so i guess to make this more concise, i have a few questions!
what was your first job?
what was getting it like?
would you recommend it to someone looking for a first job?

thank you all in advance <3

i mean you do use a resume, you just have someone who already works there vouch for you, you know? helps if they can tell the boss that they know you and you'll do a good job.

and if your parents have friends who work places you could get into that's not bad either, it's how i got my first gig

[rhapsodeity]

ohhh jeez, well, my options then are applying at a flower shop that probably isnt hiring or suddenly becoming a detective or professor!
although i guess those would be more like "assistant detective" or "teacher assist" :p

what was your first gig???

[doublesmall]

what, they only know other detectives and professors? do they just not get out much or what?

worked at a restaurant here when i was younger, guess my dad knew the owner from school or something. that kind of thing's not bad if you don't mind customers being shits sometimes.

[rhapsodeity]

they get out plenty!!!!!
but a lot of their friends are associates because they are incredibly hard workers

hahaha, well..
i imagine customers will be difficult no matter what i work in?
there are difficult people everywhere, i cannot let something like that keep me from getting out there

[doublesmall]

still sounds boring to me, but that's their business I guess

and I'm not suggesting you let it stop you, it's just that you're gonna deal with a lot more of it if you work a service job instead of, I don't know, cooking or data entry or whatever. just something to be prepared for, you know.

:o

i bet chefs deal with it more than we think
i have seen so many complaints go through to a kitchen
you are right though :\
i am plenty prepared, i think
i am a people person and i like people quite a lot!!!!!!!!
also i need the money

[doublesmall]

well get ready to like people a little bit less, then, but needing the money's a great motivator for putting up with the worst ones

just try to get hired on somewhere they don't put up with that shit, you want a boss who won't let 'em walk on you.
