first job, nonpaying was helping out at my grandfather's farm which was next door to our house, so probably 6ish when I could carry milk pails, shovel feed and all sorts of animal by products.
Around 14/15ish it was at a summer camp, doing odd jobs dishes, gassing up boats, cleaning the bathrooms, that was a whopping.90/hour. My sister worked there so we just took the boat to work so our parents didn't have to drive us.
Yes I am that old.
