Worked for our neighbor Mr. Kramer back in the mid-50's for 50 cents per hour one summer working in his yard. Picking weeds, some hand cultivating in the veggie garden, some lawn mowing (attempted) with his push mower, hand trimming the lawn edges. Worked for about three hours one day and went to get paid.

Never did hook up for work duties after that but we were still good friends, never gave it too much thought but I guess he fired me in his own way .... ha!

He and his wife Ethyl didn't have any kids so I guess I was filling that role. Too bad he didn't have kids, they would have learned a lot of neat stuff from their dad.
