I must be the only person from small town Illinois who didn’t detassle. H did as did all of my siblings.

My first job was at age 15, clerking in a drugstore in my home town. It was owned by my next door neighbors who were wonderful people. I still think about how great that job was. The other employees were all really nice to me and we had a lot of fun. Many regular customers. I knew just about everyone who worked “downtown”. It was sort of like Mayberry.
Sadly, the downtown is pretty much wiped out and deserted now.
