How much did you make at your very first job?

I think my first job was initially for $3.00/hr. I got nice check of back-pay since minimum wage was I think $3.30/hr at the time.

Pekerjaan serius pertamaku sebagai penulis freelance dibayar dengan honor. Tiap tulisan rata-rata Rp 30 ribu (tahun 1992, yang dengan kurs saat ini mungkin sekitar Rp 150-200 ribu). Tiap bulan rata-rata dimuat antara 2 hingga 3 tulisan.

I worked at Tastee Freeze and I think I made about $4.50 per hour. I was just 16 and I loved that job. My favorite part was eating soft serve chocolate ice cream with french fries. I still love salty and sweet to this day.
