Earned "bonus" pay on my allowance for doing chores beyond those required by my parents.
When I was 14 I learned that one should always secure a legally binding contract before agreeing to water the neighbor's flowers for two weeks. Cheap bastard paid me $15 for over 20 hours of work. At 18, McDonalds paid me a fair (i.e. minimum) wage for the 7 months leading up to my enlistment. |

Y’all are way more interesting than I am. Mowed yards and baby-sat til 16, added fast food to that until I got a job framing houses, after school and weekends. Then got a plumbing supply warehouse job through high school grad. Joined the Navy at 19. I’ve got to say, every gig taught me something important.

First job was when I was 12. Had an after-school job working at a TV repair shop. Rode my bike 5 miles into town, worked at the shop for a couple of hours, then rode my bike home. On gravel roads. Got paid $2/hr, plus a percentage of the repair bill on the items that I fixed.
