Where do I Start?
I have been employed in some capacity since the tender young age of 13. It was something I felt I had to do due to the economic situation my family was in..My first ever job was working with parks and recreation department. I didn't care what I was doing as long as I was earning money. When you grow up poor 20 dollars seems like a million and in the back of your mind you feel as if you can go out and buy the world. For me, just the fact that I was able to help my family survive was good enough for me. I had to help my family keep up with bills as well as buy my own school clothes. Now I'm not complaining, I guess its just the way things were meant to be for me. Once i started high school, I had a really long schedule. I had school from 8 AM until 3:15 PM. From there I had football practice until 5:30. Then I would then go and work until 9:30 PM. I would even go to work after games. TBC
