I thought it might be neat to hear what everyone's starting salaries were.
My first job (aside from babysitting and newspaper routes) was at the local A&P, when I was 15 years old. I made $5.10 per hour.
That was not bad money at the time, although within 8 years or so, I was making around $14.00 for the same part-time job (union), and that was really good money, especially for a university student.
My first "real" or grown-up full-time job once I graduated from graduate school was at Nortel. My salary was $53,000 that year, plus I got a ten thousand dollar signing bonus.
