Fast forward to when I turned 13. At that time you didn't get your SSN until you actually started working so my Dad towed me to the SS office to get my SSN. Then I worked for him at the Pepsi plant where he was plant manager and Vice President cutting and maintaining the plants grounds in the summer. Paid me a whopping $2.50 an hour. This was in 1976.

I could be wrong but in 1976 the minimum wage in Mass. was something like $3.15. I made $9 moving furniture.
