Thread How much did you make and what was your first job?

Helped other farmers bale hay, took care of their livestock when they were gone for a weekend, etc. Don't remember the wage but seemed like good money for a kid.

Also played bass in the family band at local bars and VFW clubs from age 12-13 on. $50/night.

This was all mid 80's.
 
I interned at the fire department for minimum wage (which I think was $5.25, at the time, though I could be mistaken).

I filed paperwork, moved heavy things, relabeled maps, among other things on rotations through the academy, the 911 center, the main station, the fire marshall's office, and the arson lab. The arson lab was fun, because they let me help calibrate the GCMS every week.
