Office wear
Feb. 24th, 2009 02:36 pmI know we've touched on this before, but what would you wear to work if the dress code was "smart casual" or "business casual"? Or possibly more to the point (especially if you're a woman!), what do you think I should wear?
I've just come across my first payslip. It was for one week's shepherding work, week ending 26 April 1981. £33.50. I was (just) fifteen at the time.
I had done work for my father (although on a semi-formal basis) before that; but that was all cash in hand.
In the summer of 1981, I started work as a warden at the local stately house. £1.25 an hour. Sundays were double time, and bank holidays £2.50 bonus (I think; or the other way around). My first work there was over one of the May bank holiday weekends, which netted a tidy little sum. I continued working there in the holidays until 1987.
What was your first job?
