Re: How old were you when you got your first real job?
My very first "real" job was as a computer programmer for the Fairfax County (Virginia) Public School System. I was hired to write an automated math tutoring system for fourth-sixth grade students, which was incorporated into the math labs in the local elementary schools. I was 15.
Years later, in grad school, my thesis research was about automated tutoring systems. Some things never change.
