What did do as a kid to earn money ?

That last pic jogged my memory!!

I remember my Dad taking me to pick cotton in the local fields. All day in the super hot sun (95 degrees) dragging a 8 ft long sack through the rows of cotton. Cutting my hands up on the cotton plants as I picked. At the age of 12 it was pretty hard unrewarding work. At the end of the first day I had picked maybe 30 lbs of cotton. It may not sound like much but when your dragging that long bag/sack for miles through the rows of cotton, all day long, it gets almost impossible to drag. Anyway, at the end of the day (late evening) they weighed my bag of cotton and I got 25 cents. I never felt so embarassed and humiliated in my life!!!
