$10 per afternoon, cleaning the floors and emptying trash at the local newspaper once or twice a week. I was 12 at the time so that would have been around 1981.

4.75/hr, for working as a barback at a reception hall. Plus, the bartenders usually threw some of their tips my way.

$3.35 an hour. Primo's Game Calls.
I rolled condoms down onto a big wooden dildo. And then marked them with a sharpie. Then cut them on a paper cutter. And handed them to the guys who stretched them between aluminum frames for turkey calls.
The guys making the calls were all Pentecostal preachers in training. They made piece count. I think it was 15c per call.

Umpiring Little League baseball games when I was 14 or 15. I think it was $12/game, so roughly $8/hr.
Dealing with Little League parents was not worth it.
