Jobs: 1967 I was 16 years old and made $1.51/ hour boxing groceries. I talked to every house wife as I put grocery bags in her car.
Lots of other jobs
2008 I was 57 years old and made [more than the average electrical engineer made in 2008] as a contract engineer at General Dynamics. I used my table saw to build a kludged equipment rack to put in the luggage compartment of the Eclipse jet prototype. We were having back EMF sensed control loop trouble with the starter /generator in the Pratt Whitney jet engine. Working 24/7 we got the engine started at 4:00 a.m. at the Albuquerque airport.
