People also don't realize that in the 80s, companies could get away with working you overtime at a young age.

I worked at BK for 45+ hours a week while going to high school. I worked every afternoon after my school club days, then worked Sat starting at 5am and Sunday after church. That 6.5 OT money was more than most store managers and a complete dream to earn!!

My parents frequently thought I was at my BFFs house. She started working there to see me more.

Before that, at 10, we started raking yards, cutting grass, then babysitting at 12.
