My first job while in school was doing web development with a LAMP stack. I had zero PHP experience, so it was 100% learning on the job and my learning resources were basically the official docs, a PHP book (can't remember which) I got at a book store, and stackoverflow. PHP has a very forgiving design; it makes it very easy to get any trash code up and running. It really is great for newbies to get their hands dirty. I look back fondly on that first job, but boy did I have to unlearn a lot of bad lessons from those days.
