In the old days we did that with a slide rule and pencil and paper.george wrote:The last time I was at Astro World, the power went out while we were in line at Popeye's. The kids there were all used to the registers that are marked "small fries", "med soda", etc. There were 4 kids and 2 calculators, but no one behind the counter could figure out how to total an order. We all had to wait an hour for the power to come back up.
Now I'm beginning to sound like one of those old people who talk about the old days, I suppose.
Looking back, what other people perceive as the hard times, really were the best times.

Re: What was your first job?
Farm work and paper route followed by working at a local filling station/grill/bar, never had a W-2 for any of those, the first job I ever had a W-2 for was as a camera salesman at Two Guys department store in Menands, NY. Then a 28 year career with the phone company.
