Okay, everyone sing together ... working at the car wash, yea ... (for $0.75 per hour)! I was about 11 or 12 and ran the place for dear old dad - only one there all day to make sure everything kept working (and cleaning the white walls of the nice old ladies that would give the young boy a tip). Worked a 13 hour day - man, when I got that raise to $1.25 per hour I was really in hog heaven! That was back in about 72- 73.

In 1972 I was 14 and landed my first real job as, ready for this? ASSISTANT MANAGER at the Mr. Donut. I got the job because I was the only knucklehead willing to get out of bed at 3 AM to make the donuts. Lots of chocolate milk and donuts along with $1.35/hour in exchange for working in one of the nastiest places you can imagine food would come from.
