What low paying job did you have before poker?(or still have)
 

This is for the young people who had low paying jobs. I figure older people when they were working at stuff like fast food there was not much poker around.

I used to work for KFC making $300 a month if i was lucky... working full time.

I also worked for pizza hut which made good money in tips, full time I was making about $500 a week counting in the tips and paycheck.

Another job I tried out by getting duped into as a college student was working for Vector Marketting. These guys are notorious for hiring college students to sell their knives. They basically advertise around college campuses as a high paying job, flexible hours, and great pay. Really... they just con a buncha college students into asking everyone they know or don't even know that well (such as neighbors, old friends from high school, people at their church) to set up a meeting where they go through a written routine of selling these knives. I quit this job when i realized all im doing is hassling friends parents and my own family to pay for these over priced knives.

Now that i'm playing poker i've been fascinated by how much money there is to be made.

I worked at Circuit City. It was my job to rip decent people off.

Hoisting the BS flag.

you were either maknig more money then that or working far less then "almost full time"

Goverment takes hardly no taxes at all at that income level, not $3 out of every $5 for sure.

I worked the carry out at a shitty overpriced italian resturaunt. Then I worked at McDonalds. Best Job evar! Once that was done I had a stint as a bus boy. Once that was done I worked telemarketing for the Chicago Tribune. Then I started working at Menards...I like to quit my jobs and find slightly better ones.
