My first sales role (SDR). I landed that job after I was jobless for about 6 months after college and didn't know what I was getting into.

I was prepared to do everything to keep it though. The initial hard work paid off and then I knew this was what I was gonna do for a long time to come.

Student ambassador at my high school, my "job" was to "sell" the school to potential students and their parents. Felt the sales high when I saw the kids I gave tours to, or spoke to in freshman orientation the next year!
