I didn't know much about jobs in the world.

When I was an elementary school student, I didn't think of what I wanted to be in the future, especially.
When I was in junior high school, I thought of becoming a programmer once.
Around that time, in the 1980s, I could get an MSX2 computer(an 8-bit computer) fortunately, and then I did programming something and playing games.
One day, I came across an article, and it said that if you want to get such a job, you should at least graduate from university.
However, I didn't love school study very much, so I couldn't bring myself to paying expensive money to study in university.
That's why I intended to work, not to school.
Having said that, I went to also high school for three years.
About the time I graduate, I thought of selling software packages as shop staff. It might be hard to build computer programs, but selling the products might be able to me.
After high school, I started to work at an electronics store. Although, what I sold is not any computer software packages, but small(portable) audio products, such as walkmans, cassette compos, and handy radio.
In the end, I enjoyed the work, and I was lucky.


小学生の頃は、将来何になりたいか、特に何も考えていませんでした。
中学生の頃は、プログラマーになりたいと思ったことがありました。
その頃、1980年代、幸いにもMSX2(8ビットコンピュータ)を手に入れることができたので、プログラミングをしたりとか、ゲームをしたりとかしていたんです。
そんなある日、ある記事を見つけました。そこには、そういう仕事に就くなら最低でも大学を卒業したほうがいい、と、書いてありました。
しかし、私は学校の勉強があまり好きではなかったので、高いお金を払ってまで大学に通う気になれませんでした。
だから、学校ではなく仕事をしようと思っていました。
そうは言っても、高校にも3年間通いました。
そして卒業する頃には、店員としてソフトの販売をするのはどうかな、と、考えました。プログラムを作るのは難しいかもしれないけど、製品を売るのなら私にもできるかもしれない、って思ったんです。
というわけで、高校卒業後は家電量販店で働き始めました。もっとも、そこで私が配属された売り場はパソコンソフトではなく、ウォークマンやカセットコンポ、ラジオなどのオーディオ機器売り場だったんですけど。
でも、最終的には仕事も楽しかったし、良かったと思っています。

When I was an elementary school student, I didn't really think of what I wanted to be in the future, especially.

When I was in junior high school, I thought of becoming a programmer once.

Writing "once" here sounds weird - it sounds like you just had that thought one time.

Around that time, in the 1980s, I couldwas fortunately able to get an MSX2 computer (an 8-bit computer) fortunately, and then I did some programming something and playinged games.

I noticed you put words like "fortunately" in this sentence and "especially" in the first sentence towards the end of the sentence. However, these words typically go towards the front.

One day, I came across an article, and it said that if you want to get such a job, you should at least graduate from university.

However, I didn't love school study very much, so I couldn't bring myself to paying expensive so much money to study inat university.

Money can't be expensive, but things can be expensive. The proper way to say it is "so much money".

That's why I intended to work, not to schooltudy.

Having said that, I also went to also high school for three years.

Abroutnd the time I graduated, I thought of selling software packages as shop staff.

It might be hard to buildmake computer programs, but selling the productsI thought that I might be able to mesell the products.

After high school, I started to work at an electronics store.

Although, what I sold iwas not any computer software packages, but rather small(, portable) audio products, such as wWalkmans, cassette compoplayers, and handy-held radios.

In the end, I enjoyed the work, and I was lucky.
