My nephews back from Afghanistan and is looking for something part time before college starts in the fall. Hes applied several places, but since hes going to be leaving for college hes not getting anywhere.
Maybe he should leave out the “I’m leaving soon for college” part.
It was sort of funny, because the businesses which turned me down were mostly restaurant, retail or fast food type places who were considered the major consumers of youthful labor then as well as now.
Nowadays, it seems far too many businesses prefer someone who has no ambition to do anything other than the job they're hired to do. A notable exception was Chick Fil-A, who gave all three of my daughters their first job knowing full well that they'd have them for only a few years of high school and maybe, as it turned out, a few days of the year after that during college breaks.
