Had 2 jobs since turning 16 2 years back , worked in a well known card shop and a super market.
Currently still at the super market alongside my A2s
Pay is pretty good for what i'm doing , which is relatively easy work .
But the job itself is soul destroying , I can never understand how some poor people have to do this full time to support their families . It takes such a toll on you , I find .
Most of the time i'm on tills so im there constricted to a tiny space , scanning away hundreds of pounds worth of shopping , customer after customer for hour after hour . I work in a really busy store so I don't even have time to think half the time and by the time im done I'm mentally exhausted and can barely put my mind to work.
I'd recommend to a student trying to get a bit of money on the side and to gain a perspective on how **** entry level jobs are,
