In the episode about Opie's Drug Store job Andy and Howard were reminiscing about their first jobs, Andy's being the popcorn maker at the theater and Howard's being a truck driver. It got me to thinking about my first job and I thought it would be interesting for our digest family to share memories about their very first "real job". Mine was when I was 14 years old and I was hired to be a pin setter at our local four lane bowling alley. I was paid ten cents per line and I had to set two lanes at one time. If I worked a double shift from 7:00- 11:30 setting both lanes I could make $4.80 a night. I did this job all through high school. In fact I was setting pins on a Sunday afternoon when my brother came to tell me that our father had just died of a heart attack.
