Why couldn’t Astghik Matinyan spend her first salary? Members of the "Wings of Unity" team talk about their first salaries.

Members of the “Wings of Unity” team recalled stories related to their first salaries on the occasion of May 1.

Arman Tatoyan, the party’s prime ministerial candidate, shared that he bought shoes for himself and his sister with his first salary.

“I received my first salary in the eighth grade for leveling asphalt. I was paid in Ukrainian hryvnias,” recalled Arman Tatoyan.

David Ananyan, a parliamentary candidate from “Wings of Unity,” also noted that he gave his first earnings to his family: “I received my first salary back in ’88 — I think it was 60 rubles. I was 17 years old, working as a laborer at the Shahinyan Republican Center for Sports.”

Astghik Matinyan, who holds the third spot on the party’s electoral list, apparently couldn’t spend her first salary because she lost her wallet.

“I received my first salary when I was 17, while studying in my second year. I also had the opportunity to work at the National Assembly on a contractual basis,” she said.
