First hourly job? $6 an hour working as a PC assistant in a college library. I was 14.

Prior to that (12-13) I picked blueberries, I made roughly $45 a week.

I make around $14 an hour now @ 20.

$6.50 an hour. Underpaid and over worked, but I spent the entire day driving around in a truck with no boss to bitch at me so it wasn't all that bad. Second job I was making $40 - $50 an hour depending how fast I finished the surveys. Usually only worked about two hours a day.

Tutoring stupid kids with rich parents = $40/hour, though it was only 6-8 hours per week.

MD.

I think it might help if you included the year and possibly that years minimum wage if you want to get detailed. ;)

Me... 1996 - $4.75/hr
minimum wage was $4.25
