Fun Fair Park. 1977. $1.50/HR
I worked at FFP around this time. Summertime, 10-12 hour days, 6 days per week. Minimum wage was $2.10 and they paid $2.00, with no O/T after 40. Making $140 per week was baller money for a kid.

Seriously?
in kentucky that year you could get a gallon of gas or a pack of cigarettes for that.
My first jobs were all mowing lawns and putting in flowers and watering.
Latino adilts do it now. I started at 12.
