    For my first job I worked at a rural gas station pumping gas. It was a full service gas station which was rare in my area. I mean, it still is, but it was back then too. Anyway, I was only 15 at the time, which was technically underage, but I was paid under the table anyway. My sister worked as a cashier at that gas station and was the one who got me the job. I mostly worked when she did, though I would work with other cashiers on occasion. My sister ended up getting another job and basically ghosted the gas station. The owner basically fired me because of this, he didn’t want any other family members working for him. I don’t think he ever liked me to begin with, so I think it was just an excuse to get rid of me. He was in the process of selling the store anyway, which happened not long after I got fired, so I would’ve lost the job anyway.
