Re: How old were you when you got your first real job?
When I was in High School, I was not allowed to work during the school year. Justification being: "You are a student, THAT is your job."

During the summer... was a different story.

During the summer before my Sophomore year of HS, my first job was working in the kitchen of a Dude Ranch Resort (Ridin' Hy Ranch) as a dish washer. This sucked. So that school year I got my certification, and the next summer I was a lifeguard at the same ranch (they had a pool, and a lake).
Just a note for all you guys out there looking for jobs: If you are a lifeguard, your JOB is to watch girls. If you're not watching, you're not doing your job.
