I worked at a daycare for a couple of years going through high school and college. I did youth sports camps. I ran all the camps through my college.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My first paying job, when I was 15, I was a day camp counselor.
In my teens, I worked as an aide in my community supervising and mentoring youth in various programs and delivering lunches to needy students.
I used to babysit a lot, and I used to be a nanny.
I have to say I've worked very few days of my life. I used to have to cut the lawn, and when I was in junior high school, I worked at a concession stand at a stadium.
I started working myself from about 14, really, so I wasn't a burden on my family. I did a paper round and a milk round. When I was 15 or 16, I worked in a supermarket on Saturdays stacking shelves, and then every summer I temped, right through university until my working days started.
I lived in a town of 400 until I was like nine or ten. My dad coached all the sports - he was a gym teacher and health teacher for grades K-12.
I was working part-time as a cleaner while I was going to college and then babysitting after school.
I worked in a gym. I was a trainer. I did all the crappy ex-football-player jobs.
My first career was as a coach and a teacher.
I was a lifeguard, camp counselor, the president of the YMCA Leaders Corps. I also took piano lessons. I was a dancer.
