I started working for the Hudson's Bay Company as a clerk-in training in 1963. Salary was $175 per month for roughly a 50 hour work week (88 cents per hour). Room and board in the company house was $50 a month. My how times have changed!
P.S. As I tell my grandson "When I was your age I walked to school 3 miles one way in 3 feet of snow and uphill both ways."
