My first online job was affiliate marketing when I was around 14/16 years old. Used to hang around NicheChoppers forums and sell sleazy guides for online games like Guild Wars 2, World of Warcraft or league of legends. I'd make websites/product pages for the products I was selling, and it essentially got me into the world of Web Design ergo Programming which sparked up that interest, and also got me into blogging (now own two blogs I update whenever I have freetime). I made a good 2 thousand dollars before I felt like shit by basically scamming people for some shitty guide for a video game that basically ruined the experience of actually playing the game for the people buying the guide.
My first IRL job was working on a farm. It was total shit. Literally. Minimum wage, 7.25$/hour wheree I lived at the time.
I worked on a family fun farm where I was "Horsemaster". Basically lifted chubby fat kids onto horses and led the horse around 1/4 of a mile stretch of sand full of horseshit, piss. On my worse days I would get assigned to the pony, which kicked the shit out of you if you misstepped. I worked 20 hours Saturday/Sunday. It was a shit job. Literally and Figuratively.
It was a great learning experience in terms of discipline and learning what I do not want to do as an adult, though.
These days I make my money designing websites for local business' around where I live, blogging, tutoring, and the odd programming job. Much prefer it that way. Fuck stepping in miles of horseshit.
GL at your job, though!

First job was repairing computers on Craigslist really, someone else got people (I was shy) and I did the repairs. I was 11 or 12 at the time.

3,20 Euro ? Seriously ?
I just started a month or two ago at my "first" real job (Summer jobs that the town supplies doesn't count) and I have about 5 times the amount you have per day.
Circa 15 EUR per hour here. You can't be being payed right. I don't believe it. How old are you ?

Well im currently 16 and my first job was last year and i worked at a warehouse that my sister worked at and basically for 8 hours i helped with the shipping and handling so i would put receipts on boxes, stack them onto a pallet, and then wrap the pallet up with wrap then move it to the side with a fork lift. and towards the summer theres trucks that come with 25 pound bags of rice like a whole truck load and basically 2 guys for each truck and we had to take the rice from the truck and stack them on pallets then wrap then and stack them. $9 an hour for 8 hours and 5 days a week is not bad $ when im a highschool dropout since January and all i do is basically sit home after work and Sell/Trade/Buy OG SM Accounts.

You know what, Irrespective of the pay, at least you've landed a job and earn an Income.
Coincidentally, my first job was also working In a supermarket. Due to the nature of the job, I quite enjoyed It.
