In the coal mine
In celebration of the House passing the minimum wage bill, I thought it would be fun to recount all of the different jobs I have had, and what my wages for those jobs were. From the top:
- Detroit News Paperboy - Roughly $25-$35 a week (12-13 Years old)
- Country Party Store 2 - $4.00
- Barrister Gardens - $5.00
- McDonald’s - $4.25 to $5.15 (Thanks minimum wage hike!) (16-17 Years old)
- World Of Science - ??? I can’t remember!
- B. Dalton Booksellers - $5.15
- Kmart Resource Center - $7.00 - $7.50
- Babbages/Gamestop - $7.25 (I think I turned 21 while working here)
- Meijer’s - Don’t remember, I quit after training.
- Five Brothers Mortgage Services - $7.25
- Oakland University Transportation Dept. - $7.25
- Enterprise Rent-a-Car - $7.50 to $8.25 (I turned 25 in 2004)
- Defenders - Secret!
I think that is all of them. If you can recall any others let me know.
