Jamie,
Congrats on your job!!!!
And you won't know what to buy FIRST... it's fun...*especially when you don't have a lot of OTHER BILLS TO PAY FIRST*

And I used to stand on my feet for 10~12~15 hour days, 6 and 7 days a week....*for 16 years*
So I know how you feel very much so...

Although it's very tiring the first few weeks...
The muscles and stamina you will find you have achieved will be great... and benefical to you too. Always remember to stretch a bit, do some leg lifts, and rotate ankles', etc....

And for the next question....
Do you get to get samples or discounts or freebies?

First job $6.00 an hour what is this world comming to. My first job got 10 cents a bushel picking apples,pears,peaches. $.025 a hundred for cotton 10 cents bushel for grapes. Then when I turned 9 they let me drive a tractor plowing and pulling the bailer and hay wagon when our horse's fianly gave out for $10.00 a week. I was married and a Ranch manager for $100.00 a month . My frist hourly job got 50 cents an driving a dump truck. So you see your making a lot of money for your first job. When I got $1.00 an hour I went out and bought a brand new chevy pickup off the showroom floor cost $2400.00 in 67. It cost $1.00 to register for a year and 25 cents for inspection at that time was 3 times a year. My how times change.

Geez Jimmy, that sounds like what we paid for my first new car way back when..Haven't had a new car until three years ago...we were talking about a new car, and when I was at work, my hubby brought a used car for me to try out, I took one look (it was a nice used car) and put my foot down, and said NOPE!!! take it back, I'm getting a new car. and I got a new car. That was my second new car in over 40 years.

MissJamie, happy you got switched to a different line, and you like it. It makes working so much easer.
