My first job was as a parking lot attendant/part-time lifeguard in the summer at Sandy Beach, at Harvey's Lake, Pennsylvania. I tell myself I went on to bigger and better things after that, and maybe I did, but it was fun, and I had some spending money. It certainly wasn't a career, and I never looked far enough down the road to ever consider it that way.
I settled in more ways than one, I suppose, but I have a good life, personally and professionally. I look at Millennials, and whatever we call those who've come after them, and feel for them, as they are better educated than my generation and earn far less than I did when I was part of the workforce. I found this online description: "Millennials make a living through a mix of traditional corporate jobs, specialized technical or financial careers, freelance work, and digital side hustles."
Perhaps if we offered people an opportunity to earn a living wage, they'd take us up on it, and we'd see that legendary rising tide of prosperity lift more boats than is currently the case.<SIGH>
But if you are seeking a side hustle, I may have found just the thing for you.
