I now remember my first job was as a paperboy, not a corn detassler like I've been telling people for years. I had a Grit route in Sandusky Ohio, mid 60's. I think I made 15 cents a week.

My first job was an ice cream bike

I have one of these always wanted to make the ultimate beer run bike
 
Technically, my first job was as a golf caddie. It lasted a partial Summer at a resort in my home town. I had never played golf, and didn't know anyone who did. I was just draggin' a bag 🤣 Didn't go the whole Summer, because my dad got sick of getting up at 4am to get me there by 4:30 every weekend (first come, first hired).
