Don't kids deliver papers nowadays? I know that was the only job you could get when I was a kid. That plus odd jobs (raking yards, washing cars, etc.). My first real job after that was working as a stock boy in a grocery store. You could always move to Alberta. Due to the booming economy, we have lax labour laws that allow kids as young as 12 to work in bars (in the back mind you, wouldn't want you exposed to the strippers and hard drinking!). Chris |

She was 18 and I was... oh never mind... My first job was a bagger/stock boy at a local (non chain) grocery store. Not too bad. I'm glad it's (way) in the past, though. Boss was a 8===>, though. |
