For my neighborhood, it was picking beans, berries, and hazelnuts/filberts.
Beans paid 3 cents per pound. Strawberries paid 90 cents per crate. Hazelnuts paid $4 per gunnysack. What was your first job? Did you actually make a buck? |

I was a dishwasher for $3.50 and soon became a cook. AHHHHH, the glory!
I now do those things for free when the kids stop over and get paid $0.00 per annum. Glorious indeed

I remember those. I also remember that is was so lousy that entrepreneurs in the nearest town (Stayton, Oregon) began designing and building Littau Harvesters, exclusively to harvest raspberries. Small world. Eh?

At 12 years old, looked older and lied about my age, I was an Elevator operator/Bellhop at the Markham Hotel in Gulfport, Ms. Black pants, white shirt, red vest and black shined shoes.
The elevator was one that was operated using a lever to go up or down. If you was good at it, you could make the elevator floor match up with the floor they got off on without having to bump adjust the elevator. Made .75 hr + tips |
