I was 13 too young for working papers and not much for baby sitting so I sealed blacktop driveways for the summer.  REALLY!  It is a lot of back breaking strenuous work but I loved it - all except the clean up.  The hotter the better so i wasy usually working in shorts.  the tar would splatter onto my shins and only kerosene got it off - along with the flesh!  But I made great moeny for being 13!

  • WOW!! That's an unusual job for a teenager!! Sounds like fun, though.

  • That's definitely the first time I've heard of that as a summer job! I guess you were out of the box even back then :)~
