As I recall, my teenage working years, the minimum wage climbed from 42 to 50 cents, then to 65 cents per hour in 1958. I felt rich too, but got pretty sore working for it. , The 3 AM to 7 AM shift at a Dunkin' Doughnots, 2nd grill cook at a local Pixie Pancake next door from 7 AM to 11 AM, then bagging groceries, carrying the bags out to the car and loading them at the Star Market from 11 AM to 3 PM. Swimming at Morse's Pond in the late afternoon. Summer days were certainly full! Only bagging groceries in the late afternoon during school.
