Is this a good answer to this question?
If you have had work experience, what skills and/or knowledge did you gain?
I first opened my eyes during the summer of 2008. Due to the recession I understood that my parents would not be able to support me forever. After this realization I applied for my first of several jobs I would attend during high-school. I applied to work as a paid intern for a computer repair company. I gained the skills to understand the underling structure of many electronics and how to repair them. I later used these skills to build my own custom made computer that to this day is still at the peek of technology. I later worked as an accounting clerk for a stock broker. It allowed me to use the knowledge I procured from class into practice. It gave me real world experience and knowledge in a fascinating field of business. I then began working for my boss as a cold caller; as I tried to procure clients for my employer over the telephone I learnt how to deal with different people in different ways. I was taught how to use psychology and well timed rebuttals in order to get the information I needed from potential clients. I am now an employee of CVS/Pharmacy. As stock manager I have learnt how to work the logistics of a store and a business. It has further accelerated my accounting skills because I do up to one thousand dollars in transactions hourly. My final duty as a stock manager is to calculate our stores S.H.R.I.N.K. This is our stores lost per hour due to shoplifting and misplaced products and is calculated by using a slew of mathematical functions. This has given me the knowledge to use {such as logarithms} in a practical way. Last but not least, these different work experiences have given me the ability to be self sufficient and skilled for the future job market.
