While having lunch this week at Vincente Cuban Cuisine which is located at 1250 Library I thought about my first job which was in that very building. Long before the restaurant opened it was The Good Housekeeping Shop which was an appliance store. In 1964 while a junior at Southeastern High School I was hired there as a file clerk making a whopping .75 per hour. I worked there after school from 4:30-8:30pm and all day on Saturday. When I graduated in 1966 I was hired full time and my salary soared up to $2.00 per hour. What and where was your first job?
