I worked for Dell in high school and was paid around $8/hr I think. It was at that time that I learned I don't like working for other people. Thankfully, I was on my own less than 10 years later
you see, successful people are like that. we go on our own to find creative ways to make more money than our buddies. lol

and if they become an arse, just stick it to them you're making more quarters while they're making pennies.

Sorry, but I was kidding. I never did that. I was a brick layer for a while during college. I was also a bookstore clerk, Christmas tree sorter, inventory control person, demolition guy (without explosives), prep cook, dishwasher and teacher/tutor of freshmen.

LOL @ child labor comment Mowing yards definitely sucked as a kid, but I truly enjoy taking care of my own lawn now. I've always likes being outside even if it's doing manual labor. Sitting inside an office all day gets old quickly for me. I just leave and go home sometimes if I'm not feeling it. But then I come into work several hours early fairly regularly, and I typically work some on the weekends. The joys of not having a boss

I hated not only the HUGE lawns, but I loathed the massive ones WITH the rolling hills landscape , frickin' bull! LOL
