My first job: Manual Labor with computers

My First Job. I know you all want to know what it was. Here's a little personal info =D
So my first job was with a local school system, moving computers out of schools, and replacing them new ones. We would ship the old computers out to charities and other countries who want them. I started in high school and still work this job during the summers and other times when they need help. It's a cool job and it pays well. but you have to have connections to get the job in the first place.

Working in the summers was always grueling. The horrible heat, lugging 50lb computers all over the place. We got to put them on pallets and they were transported from place to place by truckers, but when you have to load the pallets, shrink wrap them, and then unload them, it's a lot of work and very tiring. So even though you have to have connections to get the job, that doesn't mean it's an easy job. It's just as hard and dirty and horrible to have this job as it is to start out in a fast food restaurant or retail.
