What did do as a kid to earn money ?

I didn't have an official job until I was 16, when I worked the last two summers in high school for a construction company with my dad in about 1998/99 - mainly doing all of the ***** work that no one else wanted to do. Then when I moved away to go to college, I worked in building maintenance during the school year and fought fires for the US Forest Service during the summers. I miss all of those jobs.
