Eva Longoria had several jobs before she became famous. She started working at quite a young age with her first paid job being at Wendy’s in her hometown of Corpus Christ, Texas, working there for six years. This was where she developed her very fierce work ethic and used the money she earned to pay for different things in high school.
"I was manager by the time I was 18. I love Wendy’s. I love that whole experience in my life."
She later shared her cheeseburger secrets on Rachael Ray.
"What we learned at Wendy’s was mayonnaise goes on the bun first, to seal the bun, so the bun stays nice,"
she said.
"Then you put the ketchup. And [then] mustard goes on the meat, because it brings out the flavour of meat."
She later worked at a car repair workshop, The Country’s Best Yoghurt shop and a dental surgery before landing her breakthrough role in 2004 as Gabrielle Solis on the hit TV show Desperate Housewives
