Captain C got me thinking about first jobs. Other than a paper round my first ever job was working in a chicken factory. I got paid £1.25 an hour and it was a pretty grim job, they used to kill the chickens there too and it was freezing as all the rooms had to be at fridge temperature. My job was typically cutting the chicken breasts into strips or getting the meat off the legs (which still had the claws on) I remember the supervisor used to come in and tell us off if we'd left too much meat on the bones! I used to come home covered in plasters where I'd cut my fingers on the sharp knives. Interesting fact was I worked directly for Ranjit Boparan who is now the owner of 2 sisters chicken empire and worth an estimated £500m, I used to have to collect my wages from him!
Suffice to say I decided it wasn't the career for me as it was really hard graft on your feet all day and I was very glad when I finally left!!!
What was your first ever job and memories?
