What was the hourly wage of your first job?

Answer 1

My first job was working at a carwash making $5.25 an hour. I was worked like a slave too. Now every time I see someone working a hard job like mine I treat them with the most respect. I always tip well. It's the little people that make the system work. Also thanks to the illegals, a lot of the jobs that we did growing up are now gone.
