Not counting mowing yards for a neighbor or something like that where you didn't report it.

Mine was a movie theater...great job. Free movies, and you could let hot chicks in for free. You had to work your way up to ticket tear guy. Had to sling popcorn for at least a year which sucked.

But the best part of ticket tear guy was you were given the opportunity to clean the theater after the movie. It was always a two man crew, and you would sprint in as soon as the last person left. Back then people mainly paid with cash so you would go up and down the aisles and every show there would be cash laying on the ground...sometimes a $1, sometimes $5, sometimes $20...

I made way more cleaning up than I did my hourly wage.
