Self employed grass cutter/snow shoveler at 12-15 or so. Got a temp job at the VA hospital during summers when I was 16-17. They were supposed to hire disadvantaged big city kids but none applied! My neighbor ran the HVAC there so he got clearance to hire some of us instead. $6 an hour wasn't bad in 1978, plus benefits and even overtime (1.5x pay) occasionally.

General labor. Cut grass, painted, maintenance, etc.
