my highest & lowest paying jobs were actually the same one.

volunteer telephone counsellor..

so wasn't paid a cent in $$..

but there's one call that will stick with me forever.. won't go into detail on it, but when you know that it was you who was the difference between someone living and dying, that's worth more than what you can get paid..

Lowest - "Presentation Crew" at Kmart Hurstville (1st job) or assistant teacher in England

[madunit]

Lowest - everything I've done in the field of Rugby League History and Writing - $0 earnt thus far.
Lowest - Farmhand on this one merkins farm for a week, he paid me $270 after I did 54 hours work in 5 days for him. (I was 22 at the time). He asked me to come back the next week. I told him I'd go back when he paid the other 700 bucks he owed me.

He told me that he paid me award wages. I told him karma will bite his arse big time for ripping off people like that (He'd done it a few times before I later learnt and several times after). We then argued.

I punched him in the face and broke his nose.

He has cancer now. His wife divorced him when he cheated on her. He then cheated on that woman as well. Both women have taken him to court and receieved big payouts. He had to sell his farm and house to pay them.

That's the power I possess.

[gUt]

Lowest: paper round as a 13-14 year old. $ 5.60 per week to fold and deliver about a thousand catalogs for a local supermarket. I'm still annoyed that my parents didn't tell me I was being ripped off. The thing took literally all weekend including Friday night. I was diligent too, never dumped them. Never got a raise, or a free mars bar or coke from his fridge and he have me a hand written 2 sentence reference when I left. Stingy doesn't do the merkin justice.

Highest is my current (new) job in sales, working for an IT company in the legal sphere
