Game 113
The very first pay packet
Starting out at work
A video by British Pathé
The game's question
Let your mum or dad take the lead, and listen without stepping in.
Your very first job: nerves in the morning, the fear of making a mistake, hands still clumsy. Then that first pay packet, earned all by yourself and held in your palm. What was your very first job, and what did you do with that first pay?
Your first job, in your own telling
Need a hint?
Ask how old they were when they started earning, and how it felt to walk home on that first payday.
Why this game : Stepping into working life is often a source of pride – a story with its nerves and its first pay.
