I had a solid job alongside school for 2 years at a pet shop :).
It was my first job and has just recently finished as the shop has been forced to close
.
I got it from working as work experience, then just got offered it when I proved I was good enough. I was paid £100 for what was supposed to be a free work experience.
Currently looking for another, but have been offered voluntery work (which I participate in within the community anyway) aswell as a job where my dad works (a place called Ascott house, a manor house where he is a head builder) for gardening/guiding people around the house etc. Also been offered an F1 related job at silverstone, mainly when the race is on, to guide people/show people around. Good pay though.
All good :)
fatalis Being a paramedic is a very demanding job in my eyes and should be respected and paid more, especially in my country, where funding is being cut in places.
