Ha. I didn't want to elaborate because I didn't want to start
blathering. But since you asked...
I remember my first job, when I was 10 years old, for a dollar an hour,
at Interstate Pancake Howse, owned by Poor Ken and Lonesome Del. If you
think I'm joking, check out:

Googled it, and it's actually very funny and accurate. Lonesome Del also
got a good deal on some bicycles, and I worked a month for free just to
pay for my first bike.
The point being that I washed dishes, and pulled those plates out of the
machine at about 160F (there was a thermometer in the tank) and had to
move really fast and think quick because they were hot enough to be dry
by the time I could stack them up for the busboys to haul them back to
the kitchen. Years and thousands of miles later, I was running kitchens
of my own and could grab a wet towel and pull a hot pan from the 350
oven and get it out without dropping it while steam boiled around my hand.
Then I decided that I needed to go back to school and learn about computers.
Grins,
Wal
