Celebrities were once just like us… well, when it came to first jobs that is.
It all started when one Twitter user tweeted “What were your first seven jobs?” and it quickly went viral as celebs like Stephen Colbert, Buzz Aldrin, and Lin-Manuel Miranda joined in on the tweets. Even successful business people like Sheryl Sandberg (who got fired from her first job as a babysitter) shared their humble beginnings. You’d be surprised at what some of their first jobs were:
#firstsevenjobs construction, bus boy, cafeteria server, library data entry, futon frame maker, futon salesman, waiter
