Summer jobs

Can anyone remember their summer jobs from school ??

I had a great summer job when I was 11 , it was my first paying job .

Minding sheep. Yep minding sheep and that’s when my love affair with the woolly creatures started , I know I’m not proud of what it developed in to . Sheep shagging

Tell me I’m not the only one into this

I had a few jobs, the usual Irish ones:

• picking stones and potatoes

• doing shopping for the neighbors

but the main part time job was being a fuel injection technician at the weekends.

My first 'job' was Babysitting, until I was old enough to legally work. My first real job was in a pizza place and then after that I moved onto restaurant jobs.

some where near

Was on a building site on a church

Learned to plaster

Could do it right good

Not a chance now

Am self-employed now

Haven't had a young lad or girl look for a summer job in I think 3 yrs

Was thinking of looking for apprentice but don't think anyone will be interested

All young people seem to want to go to college

Pity cause in another 10 years will be very few trades people left

In school worked on a farm, building site, garage, gardening. Worst ever job was spray painting ridge tiles, it was fucking grim. 8 hours straight with a rubber face mask stuck to your face, rotating racks of roof tiles inside a furnace at about a billion degrees, sweating under an inch of paint on your overalls and rubber gloves. Then cycle about 10Km home.

I wouldnt do it again for any amount of money.

Never had the luxury of being able to get a summer job.

I was a carer from the age of 12 so my first paying job was full time employment when I was almost 20.

Wouldn't have minded a paper round or spud picking or anything like that.

First summer job working with the local milk man that delivered for premier dairies.

Getting woken by my dad at 5 in the morning to meet the milkman at the top of the road

Getting to drive the electric milk float at 5 miles an hour to Clondalkin like Dougal in that episode of Father Ted.

But my most abiding memory was the clink of the glass milk bottles.

I bought my mum some atrixo hand cream out of my first wage packet cause she always said her hands were too rough from all the housework after the 5 of us
