[QUOTE="John6185, post: 3361604, member: 25679"] In 1961 I worked at O'Mealy's Cafeteria in OKC for $40 per week-they paid by the week she they could get around the minimum wage. I think I worked 6 days per week then I went to work at Cattleman's Cafe. but due to the distance from home quit and went to work at Forum Cafeteria for $1.00 per hour and walked several times at night after 8 PM from Main Street near Robinson to Nicoma Park and had no problems with gangbangers or hoodlums. Walked down 23rd Street from Broadway past Eastern and there wasn't ny problems either. But today I wouldn't do that on a bet. Couldn't afford squat but too naive to know better. I thought I knew a lot but time proved otherwise. Haircuts were fifty cents-compare that to today and today's wages... [/QUOTE]
