in just about 2 weeks my son would be turning 16yrs old. So Today I took him out & drove around town when he was out looking for a job lol.

Took him to Mcdonalds, Safeway, Papa Murphys, Subway, DQ, Quiznos (but they werent hiring & got snoppish with us) KFC/Taco Bell, Walmart & Pizza Hut lol

most of those were on line but heck it gave him time to do it. Got to run the ones that he didnt do while we were in town back in to morrow lol
GOD I hope he gets a job

A work ethic is learned at a young age, 16 may be to late if he doesn't have the bug

Though in reality we were never meant to work. We were just suppose to play in the garen of eden and just have a good time, then someone had to eat n apple n screw it all up

My sons both started working at 16...they were able to get their working papers at 14 here in NY, but no one wanted to hire them anywhere until 16...

*sighs and shakes head* this is just great, I caught Iroc praying for her son to get a job, so that he could pay off his truck, then hopeful have a little spending money for himself and then pay his mother's gas bills.

and 2ndgenz28 remember that men made as many if not more mistakes then women did.

Thats a good sign, I started at 14 like that but it was only cause the school could use that loop hole to pay slave labor prices to get the floors swept n mopped, the only kinda nice part was you didn't get paid till once school was out, so you had money for summer.

He tends to go to work at a couple of the local farms to clean stalls & do minor work around the farms.

He also mows lawns around here lol, He helps out at the car shows we go to in a big way. so he has some sort of work drive lol.

Well that's a job, you can make good money doing lawns if you can do them quick n easy.

Friend makes a tidy sum, bought one of them fancy pro like ones used, only charges $20 a lawn to get lots of business as he can zip em out in 10-20mins or less with weed wackin and do 5-7 per day. And when its rains, it literally pours money for him.
