My first job with a real printed paycheck was The Hunt County Shopper.
The newspaper was ads mainly and went out each Wednesday.
Awful job because they required all papers on the porch
and it seemed to rain every Wednesday

Ticket Booth and snack bar at Chalk Hill Drive In theatre. Man I had forgotten about Chalk Hill drive in- Went there a few times for sure- We lived in red oak from the mid sixties until a couple of years ago, the Astro drive in was our “go to” drive-in.
What has happed to you does not define who you are-
HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Helping my uncle farm, 35 cent/hr., then big money 50 cents a bale pitching back cotton in stripper trailer. How many strippers were you able to carry on a trailer? That’s an awesome job. Varied, some trailers were a lot bigger than others. They got heavy after a while, but the bouncing and jiggling around made it nice.
