What are some good starter jobs that will not exploit me too much?

I am going to get my first job soon, and I want to know what places will not treat me like shit and pay me relatively well for a starter job, since you all probably know what places treat everyone like shit.

But as noble as tax payers funding the rich sounds. I think we can all agree that means testing are always necessary for some reason. We don't want the wrong types to be getting a benefit. According to theorists, the intention of Tax Cuts is that we want the economics to 'trickle down' so how about we add means testing to make it trickle faster? First we must make sure that the recipient of a tax cut actually needs it. We could measure the number of people actually being employed by a rich person and if require that this number is high enough before giving the tax break.
