Body:
This is a great topic, Phyllis. Got me thinking about the several jobs I had many years ago. - I ironed for the THE Monti family, at their house (maybe it was Leonard Monti) in the summer - I cleaned a couple of houses in the neighborhood - on Saturdays I had 2 or 3 ladies who's hair I fixed. Remember the magnetic rollers? I go and 'set' them in the mornings, then back later in the afternoon, after they dried and tease and spray so it would last the week. This was before hot rollers came into being - I babysat Stan Runnels younger brother and sister, as well as a couple of other families. I also cleaned (washed dishes & folded laundry) while I was there. I didn't have the business sense you did, Judy, to ask for more money but I remember being tipped well I think it's interesting that I have no idea how much money I made, or what I did with it! Once my social life kicked in, babysitting took a back seat, but my sister, Donna, took over. I remember once, having a boyfriend stop by after the kids went to bed. The parents came home early, and he took off running, leaving his shoes behind. Needless to say, I wasn't asked back. After I graduated from THS I worked as a waitress at the Beef House, caddycorner from THS, and at CoCo's/Bradley's on Rural. I do remember I made minimum wage, which I think was just over $3.00 per hour. I made a killing in tips, and spend that all on clothes for college. Those were the days. Diane
