What was your first (proper) job after leaving school/college/Uni?

Not the childhood strawberry picking, bulb cleaning, goosegog picking jobs (we were in farmland....) or the paper round, but first real job?

After I studied animal care at college, I then went and got a job as a credit controllor! Hated it really, had to make 110 calls a day and you were pulled up on it if you didnt, and so strict!

Couldnt believe it when I then came where I am now (not for much longer though! :-( )
