That was a summer job; my first job ever. $1.35 an hour, and I'll never forget how amazed i was when I looked at that first check. I guess it, was, like 30 or 40 bucks or something. I remember seeing the deduction for Social Security, and wondering if I would live long enough to ever collect.I wondered what my life would be like 50-some years later; what sort of things I would do during those years. There was just something magical about the whole concept of Social Security. And in a way it still is; the federal government deposited into my bank account earlier today money that I earned when I was 13 years old. Sorta feels weird...But damn, that was a wonderful job, working every day in the Packer Hall of Fame, occasionally meeting both current and retired Packer players - many of whom were still alive in 1970, and would occasionally have reason to travel back to Green Bay for some dinner or whatever. You never knew who you were going to see.Sometimes I still think that was the best job I ever had.</blockquote>
