                      Where was your first job?

My first job after highschool was at the K-Mart in Pontiac. Somewhere in there between 63-late 64 I worked at Western Auto, Simm’s, and some furniture store on Dixie and Telegraph? Also sold a couple of Kirby vaccumm cleaners, then on to Florida. Do you remember your first job? Send me the names of more if you can remember. Note!
