The dollar continues to collapse

I car hopped at A&W for .45 cents an hour plus the dollar or two in tips I got for the evening.
Later on working for Bekins Van Lines as a senior in HS in 1969 made $2.15, working 60-80 hours per week in the summer. I still have my time cards somewhere. My mom saved them.

Just found the time cards my mom saved. My hourly wage was less than I remembered. How many 16 year olds would work those hours today?
A lot of the boomers worked those same hours to get ahead and worked those during their entire work life.
I’d like to see a show of hands of succeeding generations on this forum that worked those hours. Come on, there has to be someone?
