I was like 13 and the school hired kids to help with sweeping the halls after school. It was a blast.

Hard to believe I'm 26 and I've had 15 jobs so far in my life. First one though... Mickey D's. Now I'm working at the worlds leading office furniture company and I'm on the verge of being laid off. Might be adding job number 16 here real soon.

Driving a truck for bailing hay. I was 5 years old and stood on the seat of the truck steering it around the field while it was running in granny gear. The men were out back loading the hay.

Worst job ever for me, door to door sales for Guardian Home Security.

"Excuse me kind person. Do you own a home security system? Would you allow a stranger to come inside now that he knows you don't have one so that I might try and convince you to purchase one?"

I was in my teens 13-14 and helped a man collect and crush cars for scrap.

Also during this time I actually chopped cotton as in with a hoe walking up and down the rows 10-12 hours a day whacking at weeds.
