I was a dishwasher at a hospital through part of high school. I think it was $1.94 per hour. Soon after I graduated the 1971 earthquake happened and the hospital was closed. I got a job at a factory,I told them I was 18 but I was 16. It was a toxic hell-hole but I stayed for most of a year. When the hospital reopened I went back as a pot washer, a prestige position with hidden benefits and $2.25 per hour! I got fat there in less than a year.
