Body:
I've been wondering about this as I've been reading the saga of the paperboys. I wondered if it was their first job? If not, what was? However, this is not just for them, but for all of us. And the definition of a job is something that somebody outside your family paid you to do - chores don't count. I'll go first. I wanted a job, but what could a girl who was 11 do? I saw an ad in a magazine placed byt eh Wallace Stevens Company. They were looking for sales reps for their stationery products. Writing papaer, Christmas cards, note cards, etc. I wrote to them and they sent me a sample case, most of which I still have). So I walked around E. 14th St, E. 15th St. from Mill to down by the frat houses, and in the area just across the tracks between Mill and College. I met a lot of people that way, and I actually made some money, maybe about $40 per year. My 2nd job started when I was 14 and lasted until just before ASU started. I was the weekend babysitter for the woman who owned the Ricardo's restauarnts in Phoenix. I made .75 an hour and worked about 18 hours a weekend.
