    lol

    I saved my first 3 paychecks and blew it on the sickest table at the hottest club in town. Obviously, I never could remember what happened after 3-4am. Was planning it for years too, since we always had to sit at the bar or a crappy table at best.

    Once my friends filled me in on why I had the bruise on my leg, extreme hangover and destroyed vocal chords, I was happy with it.

    Thanks Red Bull!!

    I made a donation to the local mosque (Not going to lie, my mum told me to) and then I bought sweets for my family (Wasn't a particularly big pay check but it's the thought that counts). :)

    I sacked groceries also. Most the time I was Collecting the Baskets. Tips were few and far between.

    I was 15, and got a job at the carwash. My first paycheck was about $200, and I spent $125 of it on a pair of Doc Martin boots.

    Man, Lauren Holly was hot back in the day. I don't blame Jim Carey for that.

    It was different for me since I was living at home.

    First real one from a 9-5 job I cashed and handed to my folks an said thanks for helping me out all these years. Second one I used to buy them a new washer and dryer.

    I don't know if there's a problem with the union so much as with telling part-time high-schoolers who live at home and are uneligibile for benefits to join it. Or asking them if they want to be sackers or checkers without telling them beforehand which one makes more and which one has to wait six months to possibly be up for promotion to the job that they could have guessed right beforehand.
