Nora Fatehi revealed that her family was not very well-off and she had no option but to donate to the family income from a very young age. On KomalNahta's chat show 'Starry Nights Gen Y', she said that she's been working since she was in high school.
"My first-ever job was as a retail sales associate in a mall that was right next to my senior high school therefore i would finish my classes and go there. I was 16. I had to work for many reasons. There were a lot of financial issues in my own family and I was said to be the the one which would step up and become the breadwinner," she said.
From working at a clothing store to being a waitress to even selling lottery tickets, Nora did everything. "I was employed in a men's clothing store so I was selling suits, putting outfits together and all that. After that, I did numerous things. I worked as a waitress in restaurants, bars and shawarma places.
I worked in a telemarketing office, cold calling people and selling lottery tickets. 'Hi, ma'am, do you want to buy this ticket?' and 90 % of the time, these were like (imitates sound of phone hanging up). I done commission, I worked in McDonalds once. I did everything," she said.
