San Diego didn't have snow, but I started my first electronics job in the

Even in the early 80's you should have gotten at least twice what you
were paid. Heck I worked on lawnmowers in the 70's for $5 per hour.



I started learning the tool and die trade in the mid 80's. I got $3.35 per
hour and walked to work in the snow, uphill, both ways!







And we all know San Diego is uphill both ways!
