My First Entry

Learning Responsibility

My first job was as a sales clerk in a small clothing shop. It wasn't a difficult job, and it wasn't really a very interesting job. I learned how to choose and order new clothing. Every weekend I had to open the store at 10:00 am. I couldn't be late. I helped costumers find clothes, and I kept the store neat and clean. Dressing neatly and professionally was an important part of the job. I used the cash register and handled credit cards, so I had to be very careful. These things all taught me responsibility. I don't work with clothing anymore, but I still use that important skill I learned in my first job.
