“My career as a dishwasher lasted only one shift. I was yelled at by the head chef – quite a lot”

What was your first job?

I washed dishes at a small pizza restaurant in the Melbourne suburb of Carlton. My biggest memory of that time was being yelled at by the head chef – quite a lot. Needless to say, my career as a dishwasher lasted only one shift. Plus, it really wasn’t worth the 10 bucks per hour.
