Famous people’s first jobs

Not all famous people were born into famous families. A lot of them had normal lives before becoming famous. They also had jobs like the rest of us. Here are just a few. Former President Obama worked at an ice-cream parlour selling ice-cream cones. He was in high school in Hawaii and said it was quite hard. He also said that the job taught him about hard work and how to spend time with work, friends and family. Brad Pitt had a strange job when he was younger. He worked as a chicken! His job was to dress up like a chicken and wave at the cars on the road.

Maybe the strangest path in life was that of Pope Francis. When he was young in Argentina, he worked several jobs before dedicating his life to religion. He worked as a cleaner sweeping floor, a chemical tester at a laboratory and as a bouncer at a bar! Yes, the pope was the person responsible for security at a bar in case anything wrong happened.
