I had a job in a grocery store when I was in high school I think it was in the $2 per hour range. It went up over $6 before I was done. I'm thinking about the late 80's and 90's for the $10 per hour... (I think. I have no concept of time anymore.)Ha, you're obviously much younger than me. My first job was $1.65/hour. I moved from NB to Toronto the next year and was making $2.25/hour. I that that was pretty good at the time and it was.
