The standard raise after a couple of months was .05!

A nickel!
You should have worked at McDonalds. Their employees were making $4.50 an hour in 1987 (starting wages).

...and you could rotate duties as a cook.

Add to that a hell of a lot of VHS blank video tapes for recording movies off of cable (about three hundred).

I forgot to say that this can come at the cost of a drop in high school GPA of one whole point or so. Due to less time for studying, time up late closing the kitchen on schoolnights, etc.

Re: 6 Months At Burger King

i ran away from home when i was sixteen. found my way to london. got a job in wimpy near notting hill gate tube; well i was desperate. my first morning, the manager, some middle-management wannabe, told me about the great prospects there were in flipping round, flat pieces of pseudo meat, frying reconstituted potato chips (aka fries) until the maximum level of carcinogenic oil is absorbed, serving obesity-inducing shakes, pouring coffee that inflicts third degree burns if consumed without waiting 20 minutes, and serving a clientele that would always find life problematic, for a young man, like myself, with burning ambition in his eyes.
i had left by lunchtime.
well, i wasn't that desperate.
