Great news!! Hope it goes well for him - it's fun to be somewhere where there are lots of other teens.

BTW - give him one piece of advice from me: don't ever, ever, ever ask a woman if she wants the Senior Citizen discount unless she's asked about it first!! When the (otherwise very nice) teenager in my local store asked me that I felt like throttling him! I know I'm mostly grey, and to him I must have looked O*L*D, but I'm only 48, far from Senior Citizen!!

Good for him! I hope he'll like it, but then again those kinds of jobs you don't really want them to like all that much. You want them to do it because they need to and realize how hard they work for so little money. So they won't want to stay there for ever right?


Kelsie still hasn't found a job, but she hasn't tried very hard. She better start, because if she doesn't have a job and the ability to pay her phone bill by the end of the month she won't have it. I can't imagine what it will be like around here if she gets that taken away for good. YIKES!!!

"I hope he'll like it, but then again those kinds of jobs you don't really want them to like all that much."

Both of our boys worked in a grocery store. The first son lasted 2 weeks, then went to work in an ice cream store for the last 1.5 year of H.S. He's the social one, and more friends could visit him at the ice cream shop. The second son lasted a few months, then went back to being a soccer referee. He didn't like having to clean up the recycling area--emptying beer bottles with cigarette butts in them--and cleaning the bathrooms. It was good for them to have the experience, though, so they know where they DON'T want to end up.
