Technically, babysitting. But my first job that offered a pay stub was at a factory that made washing machine timers. I liked the job but hated my supervisor.
Self-employed, I was that kid that pushed his lawnmower around the neighborhood asked people if I can mow their lawn’s. It actually worked out pretty good. Oh yeah also paper boy. Also candy smuggler into school. Everything I ever need to learn about the black market? I learned smuggling candy

My very first job was working part time at the town library in the Art/Music Department, stacking shelves mostly with books and LPs (yes, this was in the days before CDs). It was hard, dusty work.

At age 11, my friend and I went house to house asking people if we could cut their front lawns which were about 10x10 and we charged 50 cents...after a while we had a dozen or so regulars that we went to every week and made 5 or 6 dollars each which was a lot in 1970.

The summer I turned 16, I worked in a national park on a labor crew. They put us up in a tent camp in the woods. It was pretty sweet.
I was a maid for wealthy people who moved to our community from the South.

They were a trip, but not one I'd schedule again.

It was horrible. My boss was condescending and demeaning. He enjoyed flirting with my colleagues who were underage girls. I needed extra money so I tolerated the abuse. I was very amused when I found out that his favourites stole huge amounts of money from his business.
